title: Ethical issues in clinical research.
abstract: A variety of ethical issues can arise from clinical trials. Personal biases of the health care professional, socioeconomic constraints of the patient, and lack of collaboration and communication between the nurse and the research team create ethical dilemmas. In resolving these dilemmas, it is the responsibility of the oncology nurse to ensure that the principles of autonomy, beneficence, and justice are preserved.
