By GlobalDataEarlier this month, the study’s independent data monitoring committee (IDMC) completed its latest review of the data from all the enrolled patients and recommended continuing the study as there was no evidence of any significant safety questions.
IDMCs are usually employed by sponsors of clinical trials to protect the interests of the patients and the integrity of the study data in ongoing trials.
They will be employed especially during the time when trials are related to patients with life-threatening diseases, and when they are prolonged as in cancer clinical trials.
