| controlled clinical trials | Clinical trials involving one or more test treatments, at least one control treatment, specified outcome measures for evaluating the studied intervention, and a bias-free method for assigning patients to the test treatment. The treatment may be drugs, devices, or procedures studied for diagnostic, therapeutic, or prophylactic effectiveness. Control measures include placebos, active medicines, no-treatment, dosage forms and regimens, historical comparisons, etc. When randomization using mathematical techniques, such as the use of a random numbers table, is employed to assign patients to test or control treatments, the trials are characterised as randomised controlled trials. However, trials employing treatment allocation methods such as coin flips, odd-even numbers, patient social security numbers, days of the week, medical record numbers, or other such pseudo- or quasi-random processes, are simply designated as controlled clinical trials.

| clinical trial |
A clinical trial is a scientific study of a new treatment or drug that has not yet been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Before the FDA approves a new drug or therapy, a clinical trial is the only way for a patient to try it. The doctor explains the potential risks and benefits and helps a patient decide if a particular clinical trial is appropriate for him/her.
