Phase 1 clinical trials are that nerve-wracking first leap where a new drug finally gets tested in actual humans. It’s the bridge from lab experiments on animals or cells to bigger studies with patients.
Phase 1 Clinical Trials: Ensuring Safety in Human Subjects
Phase 1 clinical trials represent the crucial first step in bringing a new medicine from the laboratory into the hands of patients. After extensive preclinical research, which involves laboratory experiments and animal studies, the investigational drug must be tested in humans to determine if it is safe.
