Clinical Trial Protocol Corpus

Full-text clinical trial protocol documents from ClinicalTrials.gov with section segmentation aligned to SPIRIT/ICH-GCP categories.

What this is

49,002 protocol PDFs downloaded from the ClinicalTrials.gov CDN, extracted to text via PyMuPDF, and segmented into structured sections. Each record contains the full protocol text plus a list of detected sections with headings, hierarchy levels, and section type labels from a 15-type controlled vocabulary.

Existing clinical trial datasets provide API-level metadata (phase, sponsor, conditions). This corpus adds the actual document text and structure.
