Gilead is a member of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) & the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (efpia) and prioritizes transparency initiatives to align with the PhRMA Principles for Responsible Clinical Trial Data Sharing.
Sharing of clinical trial data
Gilead is committed to sharing clinical trial data with external medical experts and scientific researchers in the interest of advancing public health. As such, Gilead shares anonymized Individual Patient Data (IPD) upon request or as required by law and/or regulation.
Qualified external researchers may request IPD for studies of Gilead compounds approved in the US and the EU with a marketing authorization date on or after January 1, 2014 and publicly listed on ClinicalTrials.gov, the
EU Clinical Trials Register (EU CTR), or European Union Clinical Trials Information System (EU CTIS). For studies of newly approved compounds or indications the IPD will be available for request six months after FDA and EMA approval. Such requests are at Gilead's discretion and dependent on the nature of the request, the merit of the research proposed, availability of the data and the intended use of the data. All requests in scope of our policy will be reviewed by a Data Sharing Review Panel. In accordance with the PhRMA/EFPIA Principles for Responsible Clinical Trial Data Sharing, the panel will consist of both internal Gilead employees as well as the following 2 external reviewers:
Dr John H. Powers
Professor of Clinical Medicine at the George Washington
Dr John H. Powers is a physician on faculty as a Professor of Clinical Medicine at the George Washington University of Medicine with a focus on infectious disease.
Dr Powers has been an investigator on over 60 clinical trials and has particular expertise in the design, conduct, and analysis of clinical trials.
Dr Dave Glidden
Professor of Epidemiology & Biostatistics UCSF
Dr Dave Glidden is Professor of Epidemiology & Biostatistics at UCSF with a focus on prevention and treatment of HIV infection.
He has been involved in studies of HIV prevention (specifically, Truvada for PrEP) for over 12 years and has worked tirelessly in the global scale-up of PrEP, innovative designs/statistical analyses of new PrEP agents, and pharmacologic markers of PrEP exposure.
If the review panel agrees to the release of clinical data for research purposes, the requestor will be required to sign a data sharing agreement (DSA) in order to ensure protection of patient confidentiality prior to the release of any data.
Upon execution of the DSA, Gilead will provide access to patient-level clinical trial analysis datasets in a secured analysis environment. Gilead will also make available the CSR synopsis, protocol and statistical analysis plan (SAP).
If you would like additional information or would like to request access to Gilead clinical trial data for research purposes, please contact us at [email protected]
By submitting your research proposal, you agree to the following:
- All materials submitted to Gilead must be non-confidential and should not contain any markings indicating confidentiality. You agree that Gilead will not treat the information as confidential or proprietary.

- If your request is approved, in order to obtain access to Gilead's data, you will be required to sign a non-negotiable Data Sharing Agreement that requires you to:
- Not attempt to identify the clinical trial subjects.
- Publish the results of the analysis in a scientific journal within one year of analysis completion, or for failed publications, ensure that any analyses performed and associated outcomes are disclosed on an open access journal or publishing platform.
- Provide Gilead with a copy of any proposed public disclosure of the results and comply with Gilead's request to remove confidential information from the proposed disclosures.
- Provide Gilead a non-exclusive, free of charge license to any invention created arising from the research.
- Indemnify Gilead from third party claims resulting from your conduct of the research with Gilead's data.
Clinical study report synopses
Gilead will post the CSR synopses of completed studies of Gilead compounds approved in the US and the EU with a marketing authorization date on or after January 1, 2014 and publicly listed on Clinicaltrials.gov or EU-CTR within 18 months after study completion. Prior to posting, Gilead will redact confidential patient information and Gilead-specific sensitive information in order to ensure patient privacy and the protection of proprietary information. Available CSRs can be found by clicking here.
Sharing results with study participants
Gilead understands the important role that our study participants play in our clinical trials. Plain Language Summaries are currently available for the following studies:
-
Phase 3 interventional studies with last patient last visit (LPLV) date after 01 January 2020
-
Phase 1 and 4 interventional studies conducted in Spain with LPLV date after 01 January 2020
-
All studies submitted to the Clinical Trial Information System (CTIS) as required
- The PLS will be translated into every language where the study was conducted
Certifying procedures for sharing clinical trial information
Gilead certifies that we have established policies and procedures to implement the PhRMA Principles for Responsible Clinical Trial Data Sharing.
Publishing clinical trial results
Gilead will submit results from all Phase 3 clinical trials and any clinical trial results of significant medical importance for publication, including results from studies of discontinued development programs.
