The Main Phases of Clinical Trials

The treatments that dermatologists offer for skin conditions like rosacea and acne went through clinical trials before being offered to patients as effective treatment options. If you’d like to know more about this process, then watch this video to learn about the main phases of clinical trials.

Most clinical trials for new treatments are done through a series of steps, called phases. When a medication is successful in one phase, it moves on to the next. Phase 1 trials are small and designed to determine a treatment dosage, how it affects the body, and how it should be administered.

The dermatologists at Arlington Dermatology’s clinical research center offer clinical trials for acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and actinic keratosis treatment in Arlington Heights. To find out more, please give us a call at 847-392-5440.
