The group of people who participate in a trial. Generally, the greater the number of participants, the lesser the likelihood of reaching a false conclusion. However, when a drug shows effectiveness against a life-threatening condition, researchers may need only a small sample of people to determine if the treatment is effective. Still, they must test another group to learn about the risks associated with the treatment.
