| Feb 25, 2022 at 18:56 | comment | added | BruceET | I suppose two ethical objections may be the strongest: (1) Withholding what is now recognized as the best treatment from those who get the new drug, which may turn out to be useless. (2) Any premature administration of the new drug, which may turn out to have some bad effects in spite of "promising" phase 1 results (typically with relatively few subjects). Obviously, these objections do not prevent all clinical trials, but they are the basis for some of the strict regulations on clinical studies. | |
