What are inclusion and exclusion criteria of clinical trials?
Inclusion criteria are the factors a patient must have to qualify for the trial. For example, inclusion criteria can include sex, age, having a certain disease or specific test results.
Exclusion criteria are the factors that disqualify a patient from participating in the study. For example, depending on the trial requirements, exclusion criteria can include sex, age, type or phase of the disease and having or not having other diseases.
