My research team has been working on a new experimental drug, but due to the lack of regulations, we are unable to test it on animals. How can I create a policy that allows for the testing of experimental drugs on animals without any regulations?

To address this issue, your research team should create a policy that outlines the experimental protocols, including detailed description of the test procedures and endpoints. The policy should also include an animal welfare component that covers basic necessities such as housing, feed and health care; veterinary services; and methods to minimize stress levels during testing. Additionally, safety measures for both the animals and research staff should be outlined in detail.

To create a policy for testing experimental drugs on animals without regulations, consider the following:
- Create parameters for what types of experiments are acceptable and which are not.
- Design a framework to ensure that decisions regarding the testing of experimental drugs on animals follow ethical principles and comply with international standards. 
- Develop strategies to ensure maximum welfare of test animals.
- Create processes for monitoring research team’s compliance with guidelines.
Such a policy should not only provide protocols based on which experimentation can occur but must also specify detailed parameters along with strict control and oversight procedures to protect both the wellbeing of the test animals as well as those conducting the research.
