... release in January 2014 of a document presenting a framework for discussion, which invited public feedback on a set of issues relevant to this report and is described in greater detail in the section below; (3) reviews of the scientific literature and commissioning of two papers on special topics, including de-identification of clinical trial data (see Appendix B)
From page 180...
... The committee invited comments on a set of specific topics for public feedback on difficult issues that were likely to be complex and on which the public and stakeholders were likely to have differing perspectives. In addition to the public release of the Framework, several medical journals wrote editorials on the committee's work and encouraged their readership to send comments.

... Suggest strategies and practical approaches to facilitate responsible data sharing. 4:00-4:45 PM Discussion Panel: Cross-Cutting Proposed Guiding Principles and Discussion Framework Questions Panelists to discuss: − Because most large clinical trials are global in nature, how can clinical trial data be shared in that global con­ext?
From page 192...
... − What might be the advantages and disadvantages to various stakeholders of sharing different types of data sets, at different points in time after the comple tion of a clinical trial? − Should programs or approaches calling for or requir ing new data sharing apply only to new trials under taken from the date of a new program forward, or retroactively apply to clinical trials started before the data sharing program was initiated?
From page 193...
