- Title
Ethical considerations in clinical investigation: exploring relevance in haemophilia research.
- Authors
DiMichele, D M
- Abstract
Painful controversy has so far been largely absent from the history of haemophilia-related clinical research. However, the investigative methods now needed to realize evidence-based clinical practice, therapeutic advance, and a progressive standard of care for patients worldwide will be accompanied by the potential for ethical dilemma and transgression. From the current vantage point, three primary ethical issues merit special consideration: (i) the therapeutic misconception inherent to all clinical research and the randomized trial in particular; (ii) high risk and potentially non-beneficial novel technology research in children; and (iii) a collaborative partnership approach to research in the developing world. This study will focus on a discussion of each of these, drawing from the research ethics literature to offer a potential template for future deliberations in clinical trial design.
