If we are discussing clinical trials of a pharmaceutical or medical device then the greater the number of trials:

  • the greater the likelihood of exposing risks and risk factors, side effects, etc
  • the greater the likelihood of finding possible secondary benefits
  • the greater the statistical confidence that can be placed on numerical results
  • the more types of populations that are likely to be exposed to the trial substance or device for testing
