- Description (Summary)
- The goal of Phase 1 studies is to find the dose that works best without causing severe side effects (often called the maximum tolerated dose, or MTD) and to identify the most common side effects. This is determined by giving subjects different doses of the investigational study intervention and carefully monitoring for side effects as well as how the body handles the investigational study intervention. The goal of Phase 2 studies is to test the safety and effectiveness of the investigational study treatment, i.e. does it work against your type of condition, and do the benefits outweigh the risks and side effects. This is usually done by comparing the outcomes of the subjects in the study to those of people who previously received standard treatment.

Why participate in clinical trials?
"The steady improvement in survival for children with cancer is a direct result of their enrollment onto clinical trials; without which we would remain decades behind in terms of scientific advances in pediatric cancer." ~Michael J. Burke, MD
