Clinical research is the systematic study of new drugs, medical devices, and treatments in human subjects to evaluate their safety and efficacy before they reach the market. It's conducted by physicians, scientists, and research institutions in partnership with pharmaceutical or biotech companies, typically progressing through phased trials from small safety studies to large-scale effectiveness trials. It underpins evidence-based medicine and regulatory approval processes overseen by bodies like the FDA.
