Instead of one lab's mouse study deciding whether a drug goes to patients, several labs run the same protocol independently, like a multi-centre clinical trial for mice.
Multi-centre preclinical randomised trials (for example the Multi-PART stroke consortium and EQIPD in Europe) show that effect sizes shrink and heterogeneity appears when protocols are run across sites, exposing fragile findings before they reach patients. In oncology, a standing network of laboratories that runs pre-registered, blinded, multi-site efficacy studies for compounds approaching translation would replace single-lab evidence with robust estimates.
