Comparative Analysis of Geriatric and Adult Drug Clinical Trials on ClinicalTrials.gov

摘要：

　　Clinical trials generate gold standard medical evidence,but are often criticized for the lack of population representativeness.We performed a comparative metaanalysis of drug trials that focus on older adults(>= 65 years old)and adults(18 - 64 years old).The major finding is that a higher percentage of geriatric drug trials were terminated or withdrawn than that of adult drug trials.
