Double blinded, placebo controlled studies are the standard for research and the only way to get a new drug approved.We did open label, EIND and then moved to trials.
Unless you have hundreds of millions of dollars to treat tens of thousands of patients open label.
And of course, a mechanism to force Steve Hahn and the FDA to say, Sure, no hard evidence? No problem! What the heck. Screw the NIH, what would the National Institute of Health know. Let’s do it anyway.”
That is is why the trials are blinded even though Cytodyn is “confident”
If you need a more academic description of how clinical trials are conducted, I would suggest you start on Wikipedia.
