Drug class
Narcotics clinical trials
A class of medicines: the studies that test any of its 21 members, each study once. Members are as MeSH files each medicine’s actions, and as the NCI Thesaurus classes newer ones.
Keep track of what changes. Save the narcotics studies recruiting or about to start, and get an email each week — studies that open, close, add sites or post results.
