Right. Most clinical trials don’t work out. Even the ones that do often involve a placebo group. Participating in a trial is probably most suitable for someone interested in altruistically helping to advance medicine. Expecting to get a personal benefit from participating is probably misguided thinking in most situations, unfortunately. [Edited]: I should clarify that I mean phase 1/2 trials where there’s no efficacy data yet in humans. Phase 3 is a different matter.
