Are you spending too much time fetching and managing clinical trial data? Struggling with complex queries and bulk data extraction? What if you could simplify this process with just a few lines of code? Introducing 'clintrialx' - Fetch clinical trial data from sources like 'ClinicalTrials.gov' https://clinicaltrials.gov/ and the 'Clinical Trials Transformation Initiative - Access to Aggregate Content of ClinicalTrials.gov' database https://aact.ctti-clinicaltrials.org/, supporting pagination and bulk downloads. Also, you can generate HTML reports based on the data obtained from the sources!

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("clintrialx", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ineelhere/clintrialx")

Development version from ineelhere/clintrialx. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-clintrialx

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-clintrialx

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
