Clinical Research is conducted in 4 phases:

Phase 1 – Trials:This is the first time the new drug is administered to a small number, around 20-80 healthy, informed volunteers under the close supervision of a doctor. The purpose is to determine whether the new compound is tolerated by the patient’s body & behaves in the predicted way.

Phase 2 – Trials:In this phase, the medicine is administered to a group of approximately 100-300 informed patients to determine its effect & also to check for any unacceptable side effects.

Phase 3 – Trials:In this phase, the group is between 1000 & 5000, for company to use statistics to analyze the results. If the results are favorable, the data is presented to the licensing authorities for a commercial license.

Phase 4 – Trials:This is a surveillance operation phase after the medicine is made available to doctors, who start prescribing it. The effects are monitored on thousands of patients to help identify any unforeseen side effects.
