Knowing what countries to submit clinical trial results summaries to is the easy part. What becomes difficult is learning the intricacies and transparency requirements of every clinical trial registry globally, including the Central Committee on Research Involving Human Subjects (CCMO) in the Netherlands. Here is an overview of this registry:
