Using humans, N = 18. Quick search didn't give any estimate of the chance probability of all going into remission by unrelated reasons, but I imagine it's pretty high compared to the number of small cancer trials run around the world.
- dekhn 4y agoCancer rarely, if ever goes into remission on its own (rectal cancer, specifically). You would never see this happen randomly to everybody in a trial unless there was some external factor.
