Inclusion and exclusion criteria


In a clinical trial, the investigators must specify inclusion and exclusion criteria for participation in the study.
Inclusion criteria are characteristics that the prospective subjects must have if they are to be included in the study, while exclusion criteria are those characteristics that disqualify prospective subjects from inclusion in the study. In this sense, inclusion and exclusion criteria are usually written in a positive way: if a participant has an inclusion criteria, they are in; if they have an exclusion criteria, they are out. Inclusion and exclusion criteria may include factors such as age, sex, race, ethnicity, type and stage of disease, the subject’s previous treatment history, and the presence or absence of other medical, psychosocial, or emotional conditions.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria are meant to ensure patients safety during the study, provide data of subject appropriateness for the study, to minimize withdrawal and ensure that primary end-points of study are reached.
