Clinical scofflaws?
These 30 sponsors of clinical trials failed to submit results by the legal deadline, or at all within the 20-month window Science examined, for all of their studies. For the 216 trials that were due, results for two-thirds were still unreported as of 25 September 2019, the end of that window. Only 17% of the 216 trials had submitted results that passed National Institutes of Health quality control and appear on ClinicalTrials.gov. This list includes only sponsors with at least five due trials.
