WHAT

Clinical trials are designed to collect pivotal knowledge about investigational medications, the effectiveness of medical devices, and the potential for new cancer screening options that may benefit future patients and current research participants. These trials assess both the safety and effectiveness of a product and are conducted under rigorous U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines. Study data is reviewed throughout the process to ensure safety and effectiveness. Once complete, this data is submitted to the FDA, which determines whether a new medication, device, or test can be approved for market use.
