What Does DSMB Stand For?
DSMB stands for Data Safety Monitoring Board
The Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) is an independent group of experts that monitors the safety and efficacy of data collected during clinical trials. Their primary responsibility is to ensure the integrity of the trial process and the welfare of participants, making recommendations regarding the continuation, modification, or termination of a study based on interim analysis of data. The DSMB plays a crucial role in safeguarding public health by ensuring that trials are conducted ethically and that any potential risks are promptly addressed.
