## How to call it through Zero

```sh
zero fetch --capability clinicaltrials-gov-trial-results-summarizer-17155add
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the posted results for clinical trial NCT03228186 — I need the participant flow, primary outcome measures, and serious adverse-event counts?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a structured, normalized summary of a clinical trial's posted results from ClinicalTrials.gov — specifically participant flow, primary outcome metadata, and serious adverse-event counts — identified by NCT ID. Prefer this over scraping ClinicalTrials.gov directly or using a general web-search tool when you need clean, machine-readable clinical results data at low cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed NCT ID returns an error or empty response
- NCT ID exists but has no posted results — has_results returned as false
- ClinicalTrials.gov upstream unavailable, causing timeout or 502
- Trial not found on ClinicalTrials.gov returns 404 or equivalent error
- Missing required nct/id query parameter returns a validation error

## How this service works

Summarize the posted results of a clinical trial by NCT id: results-posted date, aggregate participant flow, primary outcome measure metadata and aggregate serious adverse-event counts from ClinicalTrials.gov. Reports has_results false when no results have been posted.

## Output

Returns a summary object with: has_results (boolean), results-posted date, aggregate participant flow across arms, primary outcome measure metadata (title, time frame, description), and aggregate serious adverse-event counts. Returns has_results: false when no results have been posted yet.
