Phase 2a studies (health)


Pilot clinical trials to evaluate efficacy and safety in selected populations of about 100 to 300 patients who have the disease or condition to be treated, diagnosed, or prevented. Often involve hospitalised patients who can be closely monitored. Objectives may focus on dose-response, type of patient, frequency of dosing, or any of a number of other issues involved in safety and efficacy.
