The best biometric design for a clinical trial is a double-blind trial comparing the drug against another drug, or placebo. This means that neither the doctor nor patient can tell which treatment the patient is on. To do this both treatments must look identical. Sometimes this is not possible, perhaps 1 drug is a pill, and one is a liquid. In this case biometrics dictates that a double blind double dummy design is used. A dummy liquid is made up to look like the active liquid, and a dummy pill is made up to look like the active pill. Patients then are given either the active pill and the dummy liquid, or the active liquid and the dummy pill.
A double-dummy clinical trial involves giving two sets of study participants two different treatments and placebos in order to maintain blinding. This design helps to prevent participant bias and allows for a more accurate assessment of the treatment effect.
During the clinical trial, all patients are given both placebo and active doses in alternating periods of time.
A double dummy study is a research design where each participant receives two types of treatments simultaneously, but only one is active while the other serves as a placebo. This design helps maintain blinding and control for the placebo effect. It is commonly used in clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new treatments.
If treatments are classed as A, B and C, and say, for example, C is placebo, then during the trial, every patient will receive A at some point, B at some other point and also C at another time. Therefore each patient is 'dummy' to what they are receiving. It's a 'triple' dummy because there are 3 different treatments.

A dummy door knob is used on doors that need to look the same but do not need a functional lock. Double closet doors, sometimes one half of a double door.
