Dataset card

The Parexel clinical-trials-protocols dataset is a public-records release of clinical trial protocol documents distributed by Parexel. It exposes trial-level text alongside tiered membership flags, packaged for machine-learning workflows.

What this dataset contains

The dataset holds roughly 16,000 protocol documents, each tied to an NCT identifier from a public clinical trial registry. Beyond the raw text, each record is annotated with four boolean tier flags indicating membership in tier_a_member, tier_b_member, tier_c_member, and tier_d_member, allowing users to filter or stratify by tier classification.

Structure and fields

The release is organized as a single training split of 15,981 rows. The schema is minimal: an nct_id column in large_string format serves as the join key to external trial registries, a text column carries the protocol content in large_string format, and the four tier_a_member through tier_d_member boolean columns carry the categorical annotations.

How analysts use it

Because the data mirrors public registry structure while adding Parexel-specific tier labels, it suits natural-language-processing work on protocol design, eligibility criteria, or trial complexity. Healthcare-focused funds may use it to benchmark protocol characteristics across sponsors, while text-mining teams can train classifiers on the tier flags to predict study categorization at scale.
