Clinical trials have a history of independent development in a variety of civilizations. Early studies were limited to observation. Subsequently, trials became more interventional, and incorporated controls and patient protection for scientific rigor and human subject safety. The modern era of clinical trials has been marked by increasing complexity, regulation, and globalization. Upcoming promises and challenges for clinical dermatology trials include new technologies, privacy, and intellectual property rights.
