ClinicalTrials.gov
The world's largest database of clinical studies, maintained by the US National Library of Medicine, containing records for trials conducted in over 200 countries. Registration is mandatory for most clinical trials. PeptideTrace uses ClinicalTrials.gov data via its API to track trial activity across all 185 compounds.
Technical Context
The database contains over 475,000 study records from 220+ countries. The API (v2) allows programmatic access to trial data using compound name queries, condition filters, status filters, and other parameters. Results reporting requirements (FDAAA 801): sponsors must submit summary results within 12 months of primary completion date for applicable clinical trials. Results include participant flow, baseline characteristics, outcome measures, and adverse events. The EU Clinical Trials Register (EudraCT) contains European trial data and interfaces with ClinicalTrials.gov. WHO's International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) aggregates trial records from multiple national registries. Together, these registries enable comprehensive tracking of clinical trial activity for any compound.
