Conclusion
The principles aim to ensure that the conduct and reporting of clinical research conform to the highest standards of scientific and ethical integrity.
Supporting Evidence
- Public skepticism about the accuracy and completeness of reporting clinical trial results has never been more pervasive.
- The principles express the fundamental responsibilities of academic institutions and faculty for research conducted under their auspices.
- Clinical research involving human participants can only be justified ethically when such experiments are done to produce generalizable knowledge.
