Managing Clinical Trials

Publishing and Updating Trials on Stanford Medicine Websites

The Stanford clinical trials database contains only trials that are listed on clinicaltrials.gov. 

Step 1: Confirm that your trial is listed on clinicaltrials.gov

Step 2: Check your Profiles inbox for a message about the trial. If your trial is listed on clinicaltrials.gov and you do NOT have a message in Profiles, you may import the trial via the 'import' feature. Simply enter the trial's NCT ID (example:NCT00323167) in the Profiles Clinical Trials dashboard.

Step 3: Click on the pencil icon in the message and select the category which best fits your trial

  • Select the medical conditions associated with your trial 
  • Add keywords that participants might use to find your trial
  •  

    Step 4: Confirm that the Stanford locations and contact information are correct. Edit as needed.

    Step 5: Recruitment Status

    • If Stanford is NOT the lead sponsor you may edit Stanford's trial recruitment status via the trial dashboard in Profiles.

    • If Stanford IS the lead sponsor recruitment status must be updated on clinicaltrials.gov. Our system publishes updates made on clincaltrials.gov within 24 hours.

       

    Step 6: Click 'submit'. Trials accepted /submitted via the researcher's Profile will be published on profiles, clinicaltrials.stanford.edu, stanfordhealthcare.org, and other Stanford Medicine Enterprise websites.
