WHAT IS A CLINICAL TRIAL?
Clinical trials are research studies that involve people. They are the final step in a long process that begins with research that is done in a lab. Clinical trials are key to developing new methods to prevent, find and treat all types of diseases. It is through clinical trials that scientists can find out if new treatments are safe and effective and work better than current treatments.
