Phase 1
Phase 1 is a term commonly used in various fields such as clinical trials, project management, and construction. It generally refers to the initial stage of a process or project, where preliminary activities are conducted to lay the groundwork for subsequent phases.
Clinical Trials[edit | edit source]
In the context of clinical trials, Phase 1 is the first stage of testing in human subjects. This phase primarily focuses on assessing the safety of a new drug or treatment. It typically involves a small group of healthy volunteers or patients and aims to determine the appropriate dosage range and identify any potential side effects.
Objectives[edit | edit source]
- Assess the safety and tolerability of the drug.
- Determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
- Establish the appropriate dosage range.
Process[edit | edit source]
