successfully eliminated by screening process

is how I would read it.

I am taking part in a clinical trial of an anti-cholestorol medication and therefore cannot participate in a different trial for a weight reduction treatment.

agree Marie-Hélène Hayles : although it's a very strange way of putting it (the original, I mean)! But I believe this is the only possible interpretation.

successfully recorded in the database of the clinical trial

The failure of a subject during the screening phase of the clinical trial has been successfully recorded in the central database.

I can only imagine this sentence as a prompt in an IVRS (Interactive Voice Response System) for clinical trials. It means that the screening failure (the fact that a certain patient failed during the screening phase, i.e. the subject met one of the exclusion criteria and cannot be enrolled in the trial) was successfully recorded in the central database of the clinical trial, following a succession of data entries made by the caller (investigator or study staff) over the phone, as prompted by the system.
'Successful' refers to the fact that all details, such as the patient ID number, exclusion criteria code, etc. have been entered correctly, the system identified the patient and managed to record the screening failure in the central database.
