another group receives only treatment B
Study Type - Crossover - Usually Chronic disease; receives more than one Tx with a
washout in between. A then B; could be randomized so the sequence changes
Overall Survival - the length of time from treatment until time of death. In a clinical trial,
measuring the overall survival is one way to see how well a new treatment works.
Cohort - Subjects are matched for similar groups; ex: Smokers, sex and age
Study Type - Placebo control - in addition to a group of subjects that receives the treatment
to be evaluated, a separate control group receives a placebo
Study Type - Active control - Done when use of placebo is unethical like antibiotics studies.
