hi please answer my question, it's for genetics

analyze the biotechnology bioethics cases presented;
provide resolutions to the issues presented in the case;
discuss the ethics theories and principles that could be used in resolving the issues.

case:

You were invited to sit in the bioethics committee panel in a pharmaceutical company. The proposal submitted to your group was a first phase study that involves the use of chimpanzees to test the effectiveness of a drug against a highly infectious disease. The members of the panel convened and discussed that the number of subjects (chimpanzees) to be used in the experiment was needlessly high and that other animals like swine and mice could be used as alternatives. The researchers agreed to reduce the number of subjects in the study but explained that although other animals could be used as subjects, chimpanzees were chosen because their physiology is closest to humans. How would you go around this concern? What other possible concern related to the handling of the animal needs to be addressed in this study?
