Clinical trials

See Procedures/policies for information on good practice, and Reporting guidelines for information on writing up trials.

Trials registries

To find out about trials currently under way or recently completed, look at ICTRP, which includes the European Union’s EU-CTR, the International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial Number registry, Clinicaltrials.gov, and 13 national registries. 

It seems not to include the UK registry. 

The UK Clinical Trials Registry has information on trials that are ongoing or completed and can be search by broad topic, narrower keyword, and by geographical area.
