No. Some clinical trials are designed to find out if a test article (a new drug or new device) can be tolerated by humans. These trials often involve trying new drugs/devices in healthy volunteers to see if they can be used. Some consider the benefit of these trials to be advancement of the knowledge and science for the future treatment of the condition being studied.
