Abstract
Clinical research has become a burgeoning activity
in recent years, largely stimulated by the pharmaceutical
industry's interest in new drugs with high marketing
profiles. Several other forces fuel this thrust: the increasing
dependence of academic medical institutions on research
funding from industry; the need for large, efficient multicenter
trials to obtain reliable and statistically significant
results in the shortest possible time for drug registration
purposes; and access to research subjects in “developing”
countries. The intense interest in HIV/AIDS research and
recent controversies about revisions to the Helsinki Declaration,
which have been seen by some to be motivated by the desire
to facilitate exploitative research in “developing”
countries, have stimulated renewed interest in the ethics
of clinical research.
