Note to self: Absolutely make sure everyone involved understands that there will be zero "sub-studies" supported until the main trial report is complete and accepted for publication.

And required sample sizes will differ dramatically depending on what thing you pick, ranging from "this study is adequately powered" to "why even bother doing this research".
