eligibility criteria - (pronounced) (EH-lih-jih-BIH-lih-tee kry-TEER-ee-uh) For clinical trials, requirements that must be met for an individual to be enrolled in a trial . These requirements help ensure that study participants are similar in terms of certain factors such as age, type and stage of cancer, general health, and prior treatment. When all participants meet the same eligibility criteria, the study's results are more likely to be caused by the intervention being tested rather than other factors or chance
