Abstract
[Extract] Clinical trials are essential components of health practice and are vital to developing new therapies, advancing interventions, improving service delivery and enhancing models of care. For patients, participation in clinical trials improves outcomes in many disease areas and reduces variation in practice, due to strict monitoring requirements. For health practitioners, clinical trials present an opportunity to be at the cutting edge of best practice. For services, clinical trials improve standard procedures. For health systems, industry sponsored trials are an additional source of revenue that could be reinvested to build clinical trial units. Reports suggest that there is significant return on investment in this sector.
