In the last post, I discussed a clinical research study designed to increase sales of expensive new drugs like Jardiance for type 2 diabetes. The patients in these research studies are not on best practice treatment or optimal medical therapy for type 2 diabetes. They are on usual care which is dramatically inferior.
Thanks Mark. Your comment means a lot to me. I am working with other stakeholders to spread best practice or optimal medical therapy for chronic diseases like diabetes and heart artery disease. We will be building big data around patients on this treatment. It would be easy to see if diabetes treatment with Jardiance is better than OMT without. We should be able to do that very soon
Great in-depth article. So many studies behave as if they exist in a pristine lab with perfect lab rats giving us perfect data in isolation.
