Clinical trial

A clinical trial is a research study conducted with human volunteers to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of new drugs, treatments, or interventions. In the context of lung cancer, clinical trials can provide access to innovative therapies and contribute to advancing medical knowledge and improving patient outcomes. There are different stages of a clinical trial, each with a different purpose. Phase 0, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III, and Phase IV.
