Clinical Trials
Learn how clinical trials work, eligibility, phases, safety profiles, and how to find opportunities for your condition.
Understanding Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are research studies that test new treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. These studies are essential for advancing medical knowledge and bringing new treatments to patients.
Trial Phases
Phase I
Tests safety and dosage in a small group of participants (20-100 people).
Phase II
Tests effectiveness and side effects in a larger group (100-300 people).
Phase III
Compares new treatment to standard treatment in large groups (1,000-3,000 people).
Phase IV
Post-approval studies to monitor long-term safety and effectiveness.
Eligibility Requirements
Each clinical trial has specific eligibility criteria based on factors such as age, gender, medical history, current health status, and the type and stage of a disease. These criteria ensure participant safety and help researchers get reliable results.
Safety & Your Rights
Clinical trials are closely monitored for safety. Participants have the right to withdraw at any time and receive information about the trial's purpose, procedures, risks, and benefits before enrolling.
