Notes
Stanev [5] considers how one might examine disagreements about early stopping between the DSMB and the principal investigator when important information is missing from the respective DSMBs’ decisions.
Stanev [6] considers how one might examine disagreements about early stopping between two DSMBs when important information is missing from the respective DSMBs’ decisions.
Petryna [7] considers the sorts of ethical issues that can arise with the outsourcing of trials to low-income countries, e.g., how trials outsourced to low-income countries can harm their public health systems rather than help them.
