  1. Natural history group

    The term natural history group refers to subjects in a drug trial that receive no treatment of any kind and whose illness is, as a consequence, left to run its natural course. The term stems from the Natural history of disease natural history of an illness , which is the course and outcome of that illness in the absence of treatment. First usage In 1863, Austin Flint 1812 1886 in his report of the first ever trial that directly compared the efficacy of a placebo treatment with that of an active treatment, spoke of the natural history of an untreated disease . ref Flint 1863 , p.18. ref Third arm The natural history group is often referred to as the third arm of a controlled drug trial, from the simple notion that a trial has three arms. The observed outcomes within this group are then compared with the outcomes manifested by a group that has been given the active drug, and with that manifested by a second group who have been given a dummy, placebo drug thus, the natural history group is the trial s third arm .
