Phase one clinical trials are early human studies designed to test an experimental drug or treatment on a small cohort of participants to evaluate safety, drug concentration, and in some cases efficacy. They must be undertaken in a unit specifically designed to handle the monitoring and evaluation of participants that this phase of trial requires. Our phase one clinical trial unit has been purpose built to safely handle phase one clinical drug and device trials.
Since 2006 our clinical trial research team have undertaken many successful phase one healthy volunteer and intent-to-treat studies spanning multiple therapeutic areas, and have honed and refined our facility to provide robust results in a safe and secure clinical setting.
