The latter of these is a most difficult task. As Miguel de Cervantes (1547–1616) wrote, “Does Your Grace think now that it's not much work to make a book?” Transferring these statements to medicine, we could consider that all physicians over the course of their professional career should perform or participate in at least one clinical trial. James Lind (1716–1794), a Scottish surgeon in the British Navy, discovered the cure for scurvy (a slow condition of vitamin C deficiency and poor hygienic conditions) and was likely the first “author” of a clinical trial. However, it would not be until 1948 that British epidemiologist Sir Austin Bradford Hill (1897–1991) established the causal relationship between nicotine addiction and lung cancer. Since then, more than 150,000 clinical trials have been performed in developed countries in fields such as cardiology, oncology, pediatrics, endocrinology and cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. According to the General Health Law, clinical trials are necessary for authorizing drug products. Furthermore, the Law of Guarantees and Rational Use of Medicines and Healthcare Products dedicates the third title to clinical trials, according to Royal Decree 1090/2015. In the European Union, Regulation 536/2014 applies.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The objectives of this article are (a) to state the decisive importance of clinical trials; (b) to make physicians aware of the clinical and educational value of participating in these studies; (c) to concisely show our group's contribution; and (d) to highlight a number of clinical trials that are currently underway.</p></span><span id="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0030">Concept and nomenclature</span><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Clinical trials are all prospective studies of humans conducted with an experimental assessment to determine a drug's or diagnostic technique's superiority (or lack thereof) – <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">propositum</span> or testing – in terms of safety and efficacy versus placebo or other known alternative procedure. Efficacy and tolerance are considered useful concepts for showing the superiority of a diagnostic or therapeutic modality. Clinical trials are the best scientific evidence available at this time. All clinical trials are known by a descriptive title on the objective(s) to be met. These titles are often long, which impedes communication and dissemination; for example, “A multicenter, randomized, double-blind comparison of the efficacy and safety of irbesartan and enalapril in adults with mild to moderate essential hypertension, as assessed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring”, known by the Spanish abbreviation MAPAVEL (<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Monitorización Ambulatoria Presión Arterial APROVEL</span>, Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring APROVEL).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0155"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> Abbreviations are therefore employed to simplify and facilitate information among researchers and disseminate the results. A clinical trial's abbreviation should be euphonious (“a pleasant sound that results from the correct combination of the acoustical elements of the words”) and have a positive and easy-to-remember message. In short, the search for a title and its corresponding abbreviation is not an easy task. There are specialists and commercial entities dedicated to offering appropriate proposals for each case. When an abbreviation is attractive and easy to evoke, it will enjoy greater acceptance; otherwise, the results will be inferior.</p></span><span id="sec0015" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0035">Drug development phases</span><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The implementation of any clinical trial involves a long and risky genesis, especially for long and complex experimental studies and laboratory studies that assess the pharmacokinetics and toxicology parameters of drugs. This process, which lasts no less than 20 years, is a <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">sine qua non</span> condition prior to research in humans (healthy volunteers and patients) and includes the study title and design, official approval, inclusion of participating centers, objectives, legal regulations by the appropriate organization, legal backing, financial insurance, periodic visits, findings, external audits, conclusions and publication of the results to the scientific community. Research to be conducted with patients must have their cooperation and must meet all requirements aimed at protecting patients as much as possible, avoiding any potential deleterious effect. For researchers, clinical trials constitute a constant challenge that requires careful patient care, frequent and protocolized medical visits and facilities of all types to achieve the planned objective.</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Clinical trials consist of a preclinical phase (laboratory) and 4 modalities or clinical stages (in humans): phase I (healthy patients; objectives: safety and pharmacokinetics); phase II (patients; objective: dose-finding); phase III (patients; objectives: efficacy, posology); and phase IV (patients; objectives: therapeutic efficacy, comparison versus a “historical” control). The importance of clinical trials includes (a) the scientific value; (b) therapeutic value, referred to as appropriate and effective dose-finding with the least adverse effects; (c) pharmaceutical safety; and (d) curricular importance, given that the results are usually published in prestigious journals in the scientific setting. Obviously, approval of the clinical trial by the corresponding authorities is required before starting the long process required by the research study.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A clinical trial covers unknown aspects of the use of drugs or techniques and employs various nonstandard methods of use. Roughly speaking, a clinical trial studies the clinical pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, absorption and distribution of the drug in the body, as well as its metabolism and excretion. The trial also studies safety aspects such as tolerance and adverse effects, interaction with food and other drugs and dose regimens (single dose or multiple). Clinical trials analyze cardiovascular and pulmonary responses, coagulation studies, biological markers, functional assessment of the central nervous system and psychometric methods. The development of the protocol includes its presentation to ethics committees, informed consent and previous examination of potential candidates to assess whether the patient meets the requirements for inclusion in the study, clinical phase (in the center or hospital), follow-up, check-ups and poststudy examination. In summary, according to current legislation, clinical trials are conducted only when 2 main requirements are met: (1) an independent ethics committee has positively evaluated the trial and (2) the trial has been submitted to the Ministry of Health along with the appropriate documentation.</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">First-hand experience of the group</span><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our contribution to the world of clinical trials has developed over the course of almost 3 decades on diseases related to cardiovascular risk such as arterial hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and ischemic heart disease. We started this task in 1990 with the international, multicenter, double-blind study “Systolic Hypertension in Europe,” known by the abbreviation SYST-EUR. The study was devised by the late clinician and researcher Antoon K.P.C. Amery (1933–1994).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0160"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> The objective of the study was to demonstrate that patients older than 60 years with isolated systolic hypertension should undergo drug treatment as do younger patients. To this end, 4695 patients were included in the study and treated over the course of 18 years (1989–2007). The study drugs, used interchangeably or in combination, belonged to 3 families: diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (enalapril) and calcium antagonists (nitrendipine). Twenty-three European countries participated in the research study, including Spain and our Hypertension Unit at Clinic Hospital San Cecilio of Granada. Once the results were disseminated among the scientific community,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0165"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3–6</span></a> professor Christopher Bulpitt of the Imperial College of London proposed a new research study as a continuation and supplement to the earlier “Hypertension in the Very Elderly Trial,” known as HYVET, in patients older than 80 years. The hypothesis seemed appropriate: If the drugs offered positive therapeutic possibilities to patients older than 60 years, it would be expected that these results were extrapolatable to older patients. HYVET was conducted in 2 stages. An open pilot study was conducted during the first stage, which included 1283 patients, with a large presence of our case series.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0185"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> After the promising results, the proposal was to ratify them conclusively with the main, double-blind study to avoid all possible bias. This second stage started in 2004 and had a total of 2247 patients treated over the course of 5 years.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0190"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8–10</span></a> As with SYST-EUR, the clinical findings were highly positive, such that the patients undergoing active treatment had a lower number of cardiovascular complications (myocardial infarction, stroke, peripheral artery disease) and lower mortality than the placebo group. The earlier nihilistic idea of not treating patients with drugs due to age was definitively ruled out because it was not ethical to use the fallacious argument of senescence for not prescribing the necessary drug in each case. The subsequent participation by our group in clinical trials exceeds 160 studies, whose results have been the subject of numerous publications. Reaching these goals has required ongoing effort, enthusiasm and dedication, while overcoming various obstacles: lack of sensitivity by the Center's management, lack of staff, tiny physical space for conducting the study and delays, in many cases, in getting approval for the respective clinical trial, which frequently requires us to “race against the clock” to catch up with the investigators and centers that had started patient recruitment much earlier than us. Despite these adversities, however, we are satisfied with the part we have played in high-level clinical research studies, which has helped us understand, for example, the complex pathogenesis of hypertension and stroke<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11,12</span></a> and other aspects of cardiovascular risk factors.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13–18</span></a> We have participated in other relevant clinical trials such as VALUE,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0245"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> CONVINCE,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0250"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></a> ONTARGET,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0255"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a> STABILITY,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0260"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> DISTINCT,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0265"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span></a> and TRANSCEND,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a> which are discussed in the following section.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0045">Clinical trials in progress</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the field of diabetes, there are studies searching for new compounds that provide a better quality of life for numerous patients inexorably attached to parenteral insulin.
