Before a pharmaceutical or biotech company can initiate testing on humans, it must conduct extensive pre-clinical or laboratory research. This research typically involves years of experiments on animal and human cells. The compounds are also extensively tested on animals. If this stage of testing is successful, a pharmaceutical company provides this data to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), requesting approval to begin testing the drug on humans. This is called an Investigational New Drug application (IND). A clinical trial is a carefully designed investigation of the effects of drug, medical treatment, or device on a group of patients (also called Subjects).
Clinical Research Associate. An employee of the Sponsor, responsible for getting a site prepared to conduct a trial and getting cleaned data back from the site to the Sponsor.
