October 7, 2004: In light of recent revelations that patients
may have been harmed by the suppression of data from studies of medicines,
Senators Chris Dodd (D-CT), Edward Kennedy (D-MA), Tim Johnson (D-SD)
and Ron Wyden (D-OR), and Congressman Edward Markey (D-MA) and Congressman
Henry Waxman (D-CA) today introduced the Fair Access to Clinical Trials

in studies.
