The controversies have been centered on (i) standard of care that should be used in research (ii) reasonable availability of interventions that are proven to be useful and (iii) quality of informed consent. Clinical research is different from clinical practice in ethically important ways where each has different goals, different methods and different justification for risk to individuals. The goal of clinical research is to generate useful knowledge about health and illness. Benefit to participants is not the purpose of research, although it does occur. Here people are the means to develop useful knowledge; and are thus at risk of exploitation."engWith permission of the license/copyright holderactionBioethicsMedical ethicsHealth ethicsArticle
