Unintended drug exposure during pregnancy in clinical trials - a survey in early drug development.

CONCLUSION: The methods to avoid unintended pregnancies during participation in a clinical trial need improvement and should include (i) pregnancy tests, (ii) documentation of last menstrual period before the first dose, (iii) compliance checks of the appropriate use of contraceptive methods, and (iv) training of trial physicians. Procedures should be in place for what to do if contraceptive methods fail. PMID: 33141016 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
