There are usually four phases of a clinical trial. Each phase helps move the study along, step by step. The purpose of a clinical trial could be to study a medicine, a therapy, or a method of preventing or detecting a disease. What's a clinical trial? Before the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) can approve a new treatment for use in people, clinical trial results must show the treatment works and does not cause harm to people. A clinical trial is a series of research studies that test new treatments before they are approved for people to use.
