Glossary Preclinical Studies

laboratory and animal tests before human clinical trials

Preclinical Studies, also known as Preclinical Research or Preclinical Testing, are a phase of research conducted before clinical trials in humans. These studies involve laboratory experiments and animal testing to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and biological activity of a new drug or treatment. The goal is to gather enough data to determine whether the treatment is safe and promising enough to move on to human trials.
