6 We found 19 articles proposing or employing novel clinical trial methods for studying therapeutic interventions in rare diseases.
17 They and Gupta and colleagues have also proposed frameworks to aid selection of randomized clinical trial methods for studying health outcomes in rare diseases.
In addition to dealing with considerations about general design and analysis (for example, outcome selection, incorporation of evidence into larger context), our methodological review is the first to go beyond randomized trial methods for studying rare diseases.
A mixed methods cluster-randomised trial sub-study on mHealth support for HIV CHWs in rural Uganda involved the intervention arm of CHWs (n=13) being given mobile phones and encouraged to contact a clinic hotline with any concerns they may have had (39).
