fact that the pharmaceutical industry now spends more on medical research than do the National Institutes of Health in the United States.

The report rejected a claim by critics of the pharmaceutical industry that drug companies spent more on advertising than on research and development. The report found that drug makers spent much more on research. Last year,it said companies spent $30.3bn on research and
development and $19.1bn on all promotion activities.including $2.7bn for advertising aimed at consumers

Prescribing of new drugs is not simply related to biomedical evaluation and critical appraisal but, more importantly, to the mode of exposure to pharmacological information and social influences on decision making. Viewed within this broad context, prescribing variation becomes more understandable. Findings have implications for the implementation of evidence-based medicine, which requires a multifaceted approach.

An increasing number of clinical trials at all stages in a product's life cycle are funded by the pharmaceutical industry

Results that are unfavourable to the sponsor—that is, trials that find a drug is less clinically effective or cost effective or less safe than other drugs used to treat the same condition—can pose considerable financial risks to companies.

Pressure to show that the drug causes a favourable outcome may result in biases in design, outcome, and reporting of industry sponsored research.

recent systematic review of the impact of financial conflicts on biomedical research found that studies financed by industry, although as rigorous as other studies, always found outcomes favourable to the sponsoring company. However, this review looked for papers published only in English, excluded reports in letters and abstracts, and looked at studies funded by other industries.

Objective
To investigate whether funding of drug studies by the pharmaceutical industry is associated with outcomes that are favourable to the funder and whether the methods of trials funded by pharmaceutical companies differ from the methods in trials with other sources of support.
![Page 28: Egyptian soc2Clinical Practice and the Pharmaceutical Industry](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070319/557d1515d8b42a4a498b4809/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
MethodsMedline (January 1966 to December 2002) and Embase (January 1980 to December 2002) searches were supplemented with material identified in the references and in the authors' personal files. Data were independently abstracted by three of the authors and disagreements were resolved by consensus.

Results
30 studies were included. Research funded by drug companies was less likely to be published than research funded by other sources. Studies sponsored by pharmaceutical companies were more likely to have outcomes favouring the sponsor than were studies with other sponsors (odds ratio 4.05; 95% confidence interval 2.98 to 5.51; 18 comparisons). None of the 13 studies that analysed methods reported that studies funded by industry was of poorer quality.

Conclusion
Systematic bias favours products which are made by the company funding the research. Explanations include the selection of an inappropriate comparator to the product being investigated and publication bias.

Eighty-seven percent 87 % of authors had some form of interaction with the pharmaceutical industry.
Fifty-eight percent 58 % had received financial support to perform research and
38% had served as employees or consultants for a pharmaceutical company.

CPG authors interacted with 10.5 different companies. Overall, an average of 81% (95% confidence interval, 70%-92%) of authors per CPG had interactions. Similarly, all of the CPGs for 7 of the 10 diseases included in our study had at least 1 author who had some interaction. Fifty-nine 59% percent had relationships with companies whose drugs were considered in the guideline they authored, and of these authors, 96% had relationships that predated the guideline creation process.

Fifty-five percent of respondents indicated that the guideline process with which they were involved had no formal process for declaring these relationships. In published versions of the CPGs, specific declarations regarding the personal financial interactions of individual authors with the pharmaceutical industry were made in only 2 cases. Seven percent thought that their own relationships with the pharmaceutical industry influenced the recommendations and 19% thought that their coauthors' recommendations were influenced by their relationships.

Stelfox et al. (1998) Review of English-language medical literature (1995-1996) about the safety of calcium channel antagonists. 70 articles found: 30 supportive of calcium-channels antagonist, 17 neutral, 23 critical. 96% of the supportive authors had financial relationship with manufacturers of calcium-channel antagonists, as compared with 60% of neutral and 37 of the critical authors. The association was statistically significant.

Cho and Bero (1996)Comparison of drug studies published in symposium proceedings that are sponsored by drug companies with articles published in their parent medical journals.The percentage in favour of the drug of interest was 98% for articles with drug companies support and 79% for articles without drug companies support. The difference was statistically significant.

Davidson RA (1986)Review of randomised clinical trials in different areas.107 published trials were analysed. 71% of trials favoured new therapies; 43% of these were funded by pharmaceutical firms. Of 31% of trials favouring the traditional therapy, only four (13%) were supported by drug companies. There was a statistically significant association between the source of funding and the outcome of the study.

Rochon et al. (1994)Review of publications of manufactures-supported trial of NSAIDs (1987-1990)52 publications representing 56 trials were found. In all 56 trials the manufacturer-associated drug was reported as comparable (71.4%) or superior (28.6%) to the comparison drug.

Gazzaniga and Garattini (1992)Review of 7 pharmacoeconomic studies on cholesterol-lowering agentsLack of methodological rigour in some part of the analyses, but this is not necessary linked to industrial sponsorship. The role of sponsor played by drug companies in 5 of the 7 studies did not seem to have significantly affected the quality of the results.

Sacristan et al. (1997)Review of economic studies published over the period 1988 to 1994. Analysis of publication bias.22 out of 24 studies (83%) published in PharmacoEconomics reported positive results, with 83% of them sponsored by drug companies. 34 out of 69 studies (49%) published in general medical journals reported positive findings, with 74% of them sponsored by government agencies. The difference in percentage of positive results between PharmacoEconomics and general medical journals was statistically significant.

Drummond et al. (1997)Survey of decision-makers’ atitudes to economic evaluation conducted in the UK.59% of responders cited the lack of credibility of industry-sponsored studies as an obstacle to the use of the study, with 8% of respondents identifying this as the most important obstacle. By contrast, the possibility that government studies were not credible was identified as a problem by only 9% of respondents, with less than 1% identifying this as the most important.

Azimi and Welch (1998)Comparison of cost-effectiveness analyses sponsored by drug companies with those sponsored by non-profit organisationsIndustry-financed cost-effectiveness analyses were more likely to support additional expenditures with investigational drugs than standard treatments.

This publication bias can only be addressed by increasing the funding for economic evaluations of medicines from other, mainly public, sources.
