Meaning
A clinical trial is when a potential new medicine is tested on humans to see if it is safe and if it works.
About Clinical Trials
- Clinical trials begin on healthy adult humans using small doses of the potential medicine.
- Once a potential medicine has proved to be safe it can then be used on a small number of patients with the disease that is to be treated.
- Eventually large clinical trials take place with many patients to find the best dose of the potential medicine.
