Answer to Question 1

Software has been developed that allows companies to simulate clinical trials on a computer before the actual trials begin. A simulated drug trial uses information about the drug's effects from earlier trials, animal studies, or trials of similar drugs. By trying out many what ifs on computer models, the actual trials can be more precisely designed, making it more likely that they will be definitive.

Answer to Question 2
