Answer:

The correct answer would be -provide detailed information about the research and drug and let the man decide if he wanted to withdraw from the research or take new drug.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this type of case where there is a drug that is in on going study or in clinic trail which is showing promising result, investigator should provide the client or subject a comprehensive account of the drug with is pro and cons and side effects.
