Subject Selection

Reasonable
efforts should be made to select subject populations that are reflective
of the local community from which subjects are recruited. The subject
population should be proportionate with regard to gender, race and age.
Recruitment should not be restricted to certain populations of potential
subjects simply on the basis of convenience or efficiency. Depending
on the nature of the study, certain studies may need to focus on particular
groups. For example, a study on management of hemophilia will recruit
male subjects, or arthritis studies would have a higher percentage of elderly
subjects.
