You are surely right.

> However, I don't understand why these subjects are included when they make the drug under investigation appear less effective.

Possibly because the businessmen who conduct clinical trials are paid by drug companies for each subject recruited. In this situation, money interferes with science. Everyone in the R & D process looks for big study populations, possibly in order to get the drug approved quicker and thus get as much patent time in the market.

How many times do these "scientists" have to make the same mistake over and over and sabotage their clinical trial results? Einstein's definition of insanity...
