The study will seek to test an experimental drug with patients suffering from late-stage leukemia. The sample will be divided into a control group and the experimental group.

Should this type of study involve children given the risks of speeding the progression of the disease?

Limit your responses to a maximum of three pages, not including title and reference pages.
Provide scholarly support for your justifications. Be sure to properly cite all references.
I will grade your paper on your ability to address the assignment criteria listed above with depth and breadth of discussion. I will also critique your writing format (i.e. proper reference citations, spacing, etc.).

Additional considerations to keep in mind while working on your case assignments:Originality and Use of directly quoted material
The purpose of each assignment is for you to present your understanding and synthesis of the background material and key concepts. Accordingly, this must be accomplished substantially in your own words.
Use directly quoted material sparingly and only when preserving the exact words of an author is necessary. For purposes of this course, rarely should directly quoted material represent more than 5-10 percent of your entire case papers content. Composing a paper patched together from mostly quoted material is not acceptable.
Be sure to properly reference all directly quoted material and include the in-text citations. All paraphrased information also requires reference citations at the end of the paraphrased section.
GradesA paper that answers all assignments questions and supports the same with good key points, well supported discussions and quality references will earn a solid B grade.
Please remember that A papers are exceptional works that go beyond just answering the questions and provide insightful answers.
Please be sure to provide citations of sources consulted in preparing your paper in the body of the actual document itself (i.e. in addition to furnishing a reference list). Remember, any statement that you make that is not common knowledge or that originates from your synthesis or interpretation of materials you have read must have a citation associated with it.
