Although there is no conclusive proof of whether or not CROs would directly manipulate the data as [NLDR13] claimed they not only did (create elements), but were paid to do so by their employing pharmaceutical companies, the fact that doctors have limited say in the clinical trial execution, or how the data is interpreted, was described by a respondent from a smaller CRO company. As the respondent explained: all that a participating doctor must do is follow the prescribed format of clinical trial execution. Taking the example of Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) reporting the respondent described how:

The doctor does not have to decide anything. (The physician) is asked his opinion on this page (of the protocol) which he has to fill out whether (the ADR) is linked to the medication or not. But this is just his opinion, and this does not mean that it is (related). And this is not even relevant in the later stages, because it’s the statistics that will determine the correlation (between drug and reaction). [HUPH01]
