Clinical Trial Policy

Our journal adheres to the International Council of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE), which employs the World Health Organization's definition of a clinical trial. A clinical trial is what the ICMJE defines as: "Any study that assigns individuals or groups of individuals to one or more health-related interventions in the future to assess the effects on their health. Any treatment used to alter a biological or health-related result is considered a health-related treatment (for example, drugs, surgical procedures, devices, behavioural treatments, dietary interventions, and process-of-care changes). All biological or health-related measurements taken from patients or participants are referred to as health outcomes, and this includes adverse events and pharmacokinetic measurements. Purely observational studies (those in which the choice of the medical intervention is not up to the investigator's discretion) are exempt from registration requirements." For more Click here
 

The ICMJE allows registration in any registry which is a major register of the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) and has the standard minimum 24-item trial registration dataset, as well as in ClinicalTrials.gov, that is a database supplier to the WHO ICTRP.
