Indicates that the study sponsor or investigator recalled a submission of
study results before
quality control (QC) review took place. If the submission was canceled on or after May 8, 2018, the date is shown. After submission of study results, a
study record cannot be modified until QC review is completed, unless the submission is canceled.
Information required by the
Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007. In general, this is a description of any agreement between the sponsor of a clinical study and the
principal investigator (PI) that does not allow the PI to discuss the results of the study or publish the study results in a scientific or academic journal after the study is completed.
A sponsor or investigator may submit a certification to delay submission of results information if they are applying for FDA approval of a new drug or device, or new use of an already approved drug or device. A sponsor or investigator who submits a certification can delay results submission up to 2 years after the
certification/extension first submitted date, unless certain events occur sooner. See
FX Swimsuit Top Swimsuit FX Shape Top Boutique Shape Boutique Top Swimsuit Shape FX Boutique txSRqq in the Results Data Element definitions for more information about this certification.
The date on which information about a
certification to delay submission of results or an
extension request was first available on ClinicalTrials.gov. ClinicalTrials.gov does not indicate whether the submission was a certification or extension request. There is typically a delay between the date the study sponsor or investigator submitted the certification or extension request and the
first posted date.
The date on which the study sponsor or investigator first submitted a
certification or an
extension request to delay submission of results. A sponsor or investigator who submits a certification can delay results submission up to 2 years after this date, unless certain events occur sooner. There is typically a delay between the date the certification or extension request was submitted and the date the information is first available on ClinicalTrials.gov (
certification/extension first posted).
The date on which the study sponsor or investigator first submitted a
certification or an
extension request that is consistent with National Library of Medicine (NLM)
quality control (QC) review criteria. The sponsor or investigator may need to revise and submit a certification or extension request one or more times before NLM's QC review criteria are met. It is the responsibility of the sponsor or investigator to ensure that the study record is consistent with the NLM QC review criteria. Meeting QC criteria for an extension request does not mean that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has determined that the request demonstrates good cause. The process for review and granting of extension requests by the NIH is being developed.
In the search feature, the City field is used to find clinical studies with locations in a specific city. The Distance field is used to find studies with locations within the specified distance from a city in number of miles. For example, if you choose Illinois as the
state, identifying "Chicago" as the city and "100 miles" as the distance will find all studies listing a location within 100 miles of Chicago.

interventional studies (also called clinical trials) and
observational studies.
Another name for an
interventional study.

In the search feature, the Country field is used to find clinical studies with locations in a specific country. For example, if you choose the United States, you can then narrow your search by selecting a
state and identifying a
city and distance.
A type of
intervention model describing a clinical trial in which groups of participants receive two or more interventions in a specific order. For example, two-by-two cross-over assignment involves two groups of participants. One group receives drug A during the initial phase of the trial, followed by drug B during a later phase. The other group receives drug B during the initial phase, followed by drug A. So during the trial, participants "cross over" to the other drug. All participants receive drug A and drug B at some point during the trial but in a different order, depending on the group to which they are assigned.
A group of independent scientists who monitor the safety and scientific integrity of a
clinical trial. The DMC can recommend to the sponsor that the trial be stopped if it is not effective, is harming participants, or is unlikely to serve its scientific purpose. Members are chosen based on the scientific skills and knowledge needed to monitor the particular trial. Also called a data safety and monitoring board, or DSMB.
A
phase of research used to describe exploratory trials conducted before traditional
phase 1 trials to investigate how or whether a drug affects the body. They involve very limited human exposure to the drug and have no therapeutic or diagnostic goals (for example, screening studies, microdose studies).
The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both
inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and
exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study
accepts healthy volunteers, has
age or age group requirements, or is limited by
sex.

A type of
eligibility criteria. These are reasons that a person is not allowed to participate in a clinical study.
A way for patients with serious diseases or conditions who cannot participate in a clinical trial to gain access to a medical product that has not been approved by the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Also called compassionate use. There are different
expanded access types.
Available:Expanded access is currently available for this investigational treatment, and patients who are not participants in the clinical study may be able to gain access to the drug, biologic, or medical device being studied.
No longer available:Expanded access was available for this intervention previously but is not currently available and will not be available in the future.
Temporarily not available:Expanded access is not currently available for this intervention but is expected to be available in the future.
Approved for marketing: The intervention has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use by the public.
Describes the category of
expanded access under
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations. There are three types of expanded access:
Individual Patients: Allows a single patient, with a serious disease or condition who cannot participate in a clinical trial, access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This category also includes access in an emergency situation.
Intermediate-size Population: Allows more than one patient (but generally fewer patients than through a Treatment IND/Protocol) access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access is used when multiple patients with the same disease or condition seek access to a specific drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA.
Treatment IND/Protocol: Allows a large, widespread population access to a drug or biological product that has not been approved by the FDA. This type of expanded access can only be provided if the product is already being developed for marketing for the same use as the expanded access use.
An
arm type in which a group of participants receives the
intervention/treatment that is the focus of the clinical trial.
In certain circumstances, a sponsor or investigator may request an extension to delay the standard results submission deadline (generally one year after the
primary completion date). The request for an extension must demonstrate good cause (for example, the need to preserve the scientific integrity of an ongoing
masked trial). All requests must be reviewed and granted by the National Institutes of Health. This process for review and granting of extension requests is being developed. See
FX Swimsuit Top Swimsuit FX Shape Top Boutique Shape Boutique Top Swimsuit Shape FX Boutique txSRqq in the Results Data Element definitions for more information.
A type of
intervention model describing a clinical trial in which groups of participants receive one of several combinations of interventions. For example, two-by-two factorial assignment involves four groups of participants. Each group receives one of the following pairs of interventions: (1) drug A and drug B, (2) drug A and a placebo, (3) a placebo and drug B, or (4) a placebo and a placebo. So during the trial, all possible combinations of the two drugs (A and B) and the placebos are given to different groups of participants.

Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
A
phase of research to describe clinical trials that focus on the safety of a drug. They are usually conducted with healthy volunteers, and the goal is to determine the drug's most frequent and
serious adverse events and, often, how the drug is broken down and excreted by the body. These trials usually involve a small number of participants.
A
phase of research to describe clinical trials that gather preliminary data on whether a drug works in people who have a certain
condition/disease (that is, the drug's effectiveness). For example, participants receiving the drug may be compared to similar participants receiving a different treatment, usually an inactive substance (called a
placebo) or a different drug. Safety continues to be evaluated, and short-term
adverse events are studied.
A
phase of research to describe clinical trials that gather more information about a drug's safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. These studies typically involve more participants.
