    AbstractRandomized controlled clinical trials represent the gold standard of research into health-care interventions but conducting a randomized trial requires careful planning, structures and procedures. The conduct of a clinical trial is a collaborative effort between investigators, participants and a range of professionals involved both centrally and locally in the coordination and execution of the study. In this article, the key steps to conducting a randomized controlled trial are summarized.© 2010 The Authors. Nephrology © 2010 Asian Pacific Society of Nephrology.
