Popis: reduces costs.Definitive proof of therapeutic benefit relies on freely accessible, high-quality data and their independent evaluation. Unfortunately, open access to de-identified patient data and statistical analyses remains unavailable, so only limited verification of claims emanating from commercially sponsored clinical trials is possible. This restriction reinforces concerns about reporting of trials in general, as “overestimation of the clinical benefit of a drug” is well documented.
