The trial results "that the company wants you to see" are disclosed in the public. Just look at Vioxx and how Merck conveniently hid the problems that are now associated with this drug.

If I can recall something I read a couple of years ago, the FDA created some rules that insisted that drug companies publish ALL the information about their drug trials. Problem is, there is no enforcement or penalty associated with lack of compliance.
