Clinical Trial Data Lookup plugin

Published · Updated · Thomas Wood

Fast Data Science are pleased to announce the release Clinical Trial Data Lookup plugin for Google Sheets. It lets you look up data for multiple clinical trials by NCT ID and fills out information such as condition, sponsor, endpoints, or protocol URL in different columns.

How can I look up clinical trial data?

To look up clinical trial data for a single trial, you can search public registries like ClinicalTrials.gov for US or global studies, the EU Clinical Trials Register for European data, or the ISRCTN Registry for UK-focused research. You may have an ID such as the NCT ID in the case of US trials. You can find clinical trial protocols by keyword using the protocol finder at clinicaltrialrisk.org.

What if I want to look up trial data for multiple trials by NCT ID and fill it out in a spreadsheet?

For multiple trials, the most efficient approach is to use a spreadsheet plugin like the Clinical Trial Data Lookup plugin for Google Sheets by Fast Data Science.

You can enter a number of NCT IDs in column A (or whichever column you choose) in your spreadsheet, and the plugin will look up those NCT IDs and retrieve information on those trials and populate that information into columns.

The information is taken directly from the ClinicalTrials.gov API and so is up to date. The tool doesn’t use generative AI and is free from hallucinations.

I am a UK government body or an NHS trust. Can I use Fast Data Science’s products and services?

Can AI be used in court documents in 2026?

There are a number of unresolved questions around when and how AI can be used in court documents. A variety of cases have been reported where litigants in person, advocates, or expert witnesses have been admonished or penalised by the courts for undeclared or inappropriate use of AI. In this post, I will focus on AI use in England and Wales, although I have covered some other jurisdictions in an earlier blog post on the topic.
