AB  - There has long been a belief that pregnant and lactating women are excluded from clinical research due to potential legal liability. However, until now, there has never been a systematic examination of legal liability in the US for the inclusion of pregnant and lactating women in clinical research and whether this fear of liability is supported by evidence. A new report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine asserts that while fear of legal liability is pervasive, actual legal liability is not, and is often conflated with other concerns, such as reputational risk, increased costs, and trial complexity. The report uses the word “women” to highlight the complex and highly pertinent history of discrimination against women and the impact this continues to have on their health and well-being. However, the findings and recommendations in this report apply to all individuals who can become pregnant or lactate, regardless of their gender identification.
