Journal beats off Pfizer legal bid for peer review papers
Tracey Caldwell
A drug company's efforts to obtain confidential peer review documents from a major US medical journal has been blocked.
The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) fought off Pfizer's attempt to make it reveal the confidential documents although a judicial decision has yet to be made on a similar subpoena against the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM).
JAMA editor-in-chief Catherine DeAngelis told IWR: "A promise of confidentiality to authors and reviewers is what allows the peer review process to work in the first place. Producing any of these documents A- even after redacting the names of the peer reviewers A- would compromise it.
"These subpoenas invade the sanctity of the peer review process, and we are pleased the judge said so when he ruled they could not be enforced."
