Clinical trial patients don't care about study sponsors or physician conflicts of interest

not very important for investigators to disclose their conflict of interest during trial recruitment.

More patients said they were willing to participate in a trial sponsored by a pharmaceutical company (39 percent) than by the government (34 percent) or a nonprofit foundation (31 percent). However, patients also reported more trust in a nonprofit foundation than a pharmaceutical company.

"Many people don't trust pharmaceutical companies because they feel they are being overcharged for medications," Braunstein adds. "But given a chance to get involved in the testing of a new drug that may provide them some health benefit, they want to do this."
