More on Phase 1 Clinical Trials

Phase I trials are the first stage of testing in human subjects. Normally, a small group of 20–100 healthy volunteers will be recruited. This phase is designed to assess the safety (pharmacovigilance), tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of a drug. These trials are often conducted in a clinical trial clinic, where the subject can be observed by full-time staff. These clinical trial clinics are often run by contract research organization (CROs, in this case, Celerion) who conduct these studies on behalf of pharmaceutical companies or other research investigators. The subject who receives the drug is usually observed until several half-lives of the drug have passed.

Phase I trials also normally include dose-ranging, also called dose escalation studies, so that the best and safest dose can be found. Phase I trials most often include healthy volunteers. However, there are some circumstances when real patients are used, such as patients who have terminal cancer or HIV and the treatment is likely to make healthy individuals ill.

Volunteers are paid an inconvenience fee for their time spent in overnight stays at the clinic and/or return visits. Pay also depends on length and complexity of participation.
