What is it about?

The representative clinical trial registries are WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) and ClinicalTrials.gov. ClinicalTrials.gov has supplied data to ICTRP. Non-ClinicalTrials.gov registries' share among ICTRP had increased until 2013. This study protocol examines non-ClinicalTrials.gov registries' share among ICTRP after 2013.

Why is it important?

Our findings will show non-ClinicalTrials.gov registries' share among ICTRP increase since 2014. Therefore, this study will clarify the importance of searching the ICTRP, not ClinicalTrials.gov in future research.

Perspectives

Our finding will show that the searching the ICTRP to identify ongoing trials and unpublished trials is important when we conduct a systematic review.
