Phase 1
Designed to test safety and tolerability, Phase 1 typically involves a small number of healthy volunteers.
At GI Alliance of Illinois, our clinical trial treatment options include the following conditions:
Clinical trials are medical research studies performed on participants to determine whether new medical approaches, treatments, therapies, or devices are safe and effective. Providers use clinical trials to learn how diseases develop and progress, find new ways to improve treatments, innovate new therapies and preventative measures, and review treatment changes over time. Clinical trials are the beginning steps to market a drug or other therapy.
Clinical trials advance through four phases to test a treatment, find the appropriate dosage, and look for side effects.
Clinical trials are an important part of the research process, helping scientists to find new, better ways to treat patients. GIA of Illinois is proud to offer clinical trial participants personalized care, cutting-edge medications and treatments, and highly individualized care tailored to their lifestyle at no cost—resulting in more frequent and personalized treatments than practices who do not participate in trials.
