PharmaPlus, a drug developer, is required by law to carry out clinical trials on the novel drug ‘AccuPreasure’. AccuPreasure is to be marketed for control of high blood pressure. Give three questions that clinical trials are designed to answer.

Is the drug safe for human use?

Are there any side-effects? How significant are these?

What is the safe-dose? What is the maximum concentration of AccuPressure that will not produce adverse effects?

Does AccuPreasure do what it was designed to do?

Is it effective? Does it measurably improve symptoms / treatment outcomes of the target disease?

Is AccuPreasure better than the standard treatment being used?

Is it an improvement on other available drugs?

E.g. better treatment outcomes, reduced side-effects

Can AccuPreasure be used to treat symptoms / diseases other than high blood pressure?

E.g. can it also treat heart disease?
