Featured Trials

All clinical trials are reviewed by an Institutional Review Board (IRB) to protect the rights and safety of people who join. But some trials stand out because they’re doing more for patients. Our volunteer review committee helps identify some trials that are going above and beyond. They are our featured trials.  
Clinical trials submitted to be featured will be scored on these categories: 
  • High Impact – Reviewers consider the potential impact on clinical practice, whether the research addresses a known issue or gap in care and more. 
  • Patient-Centered – Reviewers consider if travel costs for participants are paid for, if the informed consent is written in plain language, if results are shared with participants and more. 
  • Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Focus – Reviewers consider if the clinical trial staff are trained on cultural and anti-bias practices, the trial locations are in rural and urban areas and more. 
  • Accessibility – Reviewers consider if the eligibility criteria is as broad as possible, the requirements of participants seem reasonable for what they’re trying to study (e.g. there aren’t unnecessary labs or visits required), the number of trial locations and more.
