No one knows why a French clinical trial went horribly wrong because details of the drug aren't being disclosed http://www.nature.com/news/scientists-in-the-dark-after-french-clinical-trial-proves-fatal-1.19189 …
@statsguyuk @david_colquhoun @edyong209 So even after a fatal incident, it's poss this trial may yet go unregistered/unpublished? Hope not!

@C7RKY@david_colquhoun@edyong209 Hard to believe it won't be published now, but I'd love to know what happened to registration -
@statsguyuk@david_colquhoun@edyong209 So is this how 50% of studies go 'missing'? What's stopping them 'losing' this one? Just publicity? -
@C7RKY@david_colquhoun@edyong209 It's not true that 50% of trials go missing http://bit.ly/1KkyV4s -
@statsguyuk@david_colquhoun@edyong209 Whatever the number, we know some trials go missing. Anything but 100% transparency undermines all > -
@C7RKY@statsguyuk@david_colquhoun@edyong209 So back to my question - what's stopping them losing this one and adding to the problem? -
@C7RKY@david_colquhoun@edyong209 Ethical requirement to publish. And this: http://bit.ly/1T5giUy -
@statsguyuk@david_colquhoun@edyong209 Medical ethics no longer offer reassurance for me. And that policy seems to rely on self-reporting? -
@C7RKY Well, the policy relies on the drug being licensed, which I guess isn't going to happen here if the drug was responsible for the harm - 10 more replies
