Pre-clinical Research
Pre-clinical Research: is a level of research that begins before clinical trials can begin, and during which important feasibility, constant testing and drug safety data are collected. The aim of a preclinical study is to collect data in support of the safety of the new treatment. Preclinical studies are required before clinical trials in humans can be started.
