A counterexample from a non-biological domain would be accelerated aging tests of electronic equipment. Could there be any similar approach that aims to do this in pharma testing?

The project management triad doesn’t tell you what is scientifically possible — it tells you what is economically impossible.

Adding money won’t shorten the timeframe here, but shortening the timeframe adds potential risks (and risk=dollars)

You can maybe give higher doses or look really carefully for early signs of something being wrong? But I guess you can't do it as accurately as accelerated aging tests in eg. mechanics.
