Experimental study designs are the primary method for testing the effectiveness of new therapies and other interventions, including innovative drugs. By the 1930s, the pharmaceutical industry had adopted experimental methods and other research designs to develop and screen new compounds, improve production outputs, and test drugs for therapeutic benefits. The full potential of experimental methods in drug research was realized in the 1940s and 1950s with the growth
