Abstract
Background Trial oversight committees (TOC) including Trial Steering Committees (TSCs) and Trial Management Groups (TMGs) are integral to trial conduct. Patient and public involvement (PPI) in trial design and conduct is frequently stipulated although there is little empirical evidence to optimise roles and inputs. We aimed to use qualitative research to understand the experiences of PPI involvement in TOCs to enhance PPI contributions to trial conduct.
