a hundred or 150 and it’s looking at side effects but also looking at effectiveness so we can see if it works, but what side effects it may not have. The point at which most people can become involved in clinical trials is what we call a phase three of research and those are large trials, usually a thousand people or more.
And we’re looking at the effectiveness and we’re looking at side effects and also making sure that people are on the right dose of medication.
As I said, there certainly are risks, right? And there are some people who do have side effects from medications, some of which can be very serious. And so we certainly discuss those with people who are involved in trials. It also is a way to be involved in cutting edge medicine and cutting edge treatment. So we have to balance the risks versus the benefits. And again, that’s an individual decision that someone needs to sit down and speak with their physician about and see if that will be a good fit for them.
