They're only interested in profit, not looking after you. So they will try and design the trials to maximize ultimately the sales of the drugs. They have what we call a pre-randomization run-in phase where they get these volunteers who are interested in being in the trial.

And for six weeks, for example, one of the trials, the heart protection study, a third of the patients, thousands of patients were removed before the trial began. because of so-called noncompliance. In other words, they got side effects.
