“When a drug comes out [that's broadly prescribed] there are going to start to be a lot of people on it [in a million person cohort] and you might get therefore an early signal of something unexpected that hadn't come through in the clinical trials. And I'm sure [drug companies] would love it if, in fact, FDA, recognizing that, would say, OK, maybe you don't have to do your trial with 30,000 people because we're going to find out shortly after registration because we'll have a lot of people taking the drug and we'll be able to see what happened using PMI.” PeopleIfsPersonsFactsMightAbleCompanyMillionsHappenedDrugTrialsUnexpectedSignalsRecognizingClinicalsFdaRegistrationDrug CompaniesSomething UnexpectedClinical Trials Author:Francis Collins

“The statistical method is required in the interpretation of figures which are at the mercy of numerous influences, and its object is to determine whether individual influences can be isolated and their effects measured. The essence of the method lies in the determination that we are really comparing like with like, and that we have not overlooked a relevant factor which is present in Group A and absent from Group B. The variability of human beings in their illnesses and in their reactions to them is a fundamental reason for the planned clinical trial and not against it.” HumansReasonScienceLyingIndividualHuman BeingsGroupsInfluenceEffectsFiguresObjectsDeterminationMercyEssenceMethodFundamentalsMedicineDetermineIllnessTrialsReactionsFactorsCompareStatisticsInterpretationRelevantIsolatedAbsentOverlookedClinicalsVariabilityClinical Trials Author:Austin Bradford Hill
