    C54721Early Phase 1 TrialExploratory clinical trials, in a small number of participants, that are conducted early in Phase 1. The investigational trial intervention is administered at a low dose for a limited time. Early Phase 1 trials provide insights into a variety of parameters such as pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and other biomarkers. They involve limited human exposure, have no therapeutic or diagnostic intent, and are not intended to assess clinical tolerability.
    C15600Phase I TrialExploratory clinical trials that may be first-in-human, conducted in a small number of patients or healthy volunteers to evaluate clinical safety, tolerability, or therapeutic intent (pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics) of an investigational trial intervention.
    C15693Phase I/II TrialA single clinical trial that combines elements of Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials, which may begin as a Phase 1 trial and transition into Phase 2 based upon predetermined criteria.
    C198366Phase I/II/III TrialA study that begins as a Phase I study and transitions into Phases II and III based upon successful completion of each previous portion.
    C198367Phase I/III TrialA study that begins as a Phase I study and transitions into a Phase III study upon successful completion of the Phase I portion.
    C15601Phase II TrialExploratory trials conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the investigational trial intervention in patients with the disease or condition. Objectives may include, but are not limited to, clinical pharmacology, dose-ranging (dose-response, frequency of dosing), type of patients, or other characteristics of safety and efficacy.
    C15694Phase II/III TrialA type of clinical study that combines elements characteristic of traditional Phase II and Phase III trials.
    C217024Phase II/III/IV TrialA study that begins as a Phase II study and transitions into Phases III and IV based upon successful completion of each previous portion.
    C15602Phase III TrialConfirmatory trials conducted to demonstrate safety, efficacy and tolerability of the investigational trial intervention in patients with the disease or condition. Their objectives are to evaluate the overall benefit-risk relationship and may provide substantial evidence for regulatory approval and product information.
    C217025Phase III/IV TrialA type of clinical study that combines elements characteristic of traditional Phase III and Phase IV trials.
    C15603Phase IV TrialPost-approval (or post-marketing) trials conducted to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of an investigational trial intervention in its approved indication and may be conducted to address a regulatory requirement. These studies may explore use of the investigational trial intervention in the real-world setting of clinical practice and may also inform health economics and health technology assessments.
