End this secrecy over clinical trials

End this secrecy
over clinical trials

Ninety-six of every 100 adult cancer patients do not enrol in a clinical trial. One reason is that many trials are shrouded in a veil of secrecy, and patients find it hard to locate one that addresses their specific condition. Existing registries list only a small percentage of trials in progress, the information they contain is frequently inaccurate or incomplete and not all of them are accessible to the public.
