Navigating Evidence Standards: Stakeholder Perspectives on External Controls and Randomization in Cancer Trials

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
While historically the ‘gold standard,’ the role of large‐scale RCTs is being increasingly challenged in the contemporary oncology research era. External controls represent an alternate method for generating evidence, though the perspectives of key stakeholders regarding their role in oncology are not well known.
