2. Overview
• History
• Definition
• Regulatory bodies
• In silico and in vitro trials
• Pre clinical trials
• Phases of clinical trials
• Types of clinical trials
3. History
• James Lind, Scottish physician
• First ever clinical trial
• Group of sailors – suffering
from Scurvy
• Vinegar to cider
• Citrus fruits
• Discovered Vitamin C can cure scurvy
4. Definition
• Clinical trials mean a systematic study of a new
drug ( therapy protocols, devices ) in human
subjects to generate data for discovering or
verifying the clinical claims or pharmacological
and adverse effects with an aim to determine
the safety and efficacy of drugs in question
5. Regulatory bodies
• U.S.A – Food and drug administration
• U.K – Committee on safety of medicine
• Japan – Ministry of health labor and welfare
• India – Drugs controller general, Govt.of India
6. FDA
1906 – Interstate transport of adulterated
food and drugs
1938 – Elixir sulfanilamide
1960 – Thalidomide
Safety
Efficacy
8. In silico
• Simulator software available
• Predict mechanism, metabolism, distribution
• Expected to contribute in reduction of animal
use
• Disadvantage: applicable only to those areas
which are well understood. Also hepatotoxicity
neurotoxicity can not be predicted
9. In vitro
• Isolated cells, tissues and organs
• The National disease research institute- 130
types of tissues for >50 types of disease
• E.g.: monoclonal antibodies – cultured cells
• Limitation: not available for all the tissues
Normal systemic pharmacokinetic
profile (ADME) is absent.
10. PRE CLINICAL
•
•
Non human
- Lab
- Animal (rats, rabbits, etc.)
Pharmacological studies: to know
Biological activity
Mechanism of action
Selectivity and specificity
Drug metabolism
11. • Toxicity – Acute toxicity
Sub acute toxicity
Chronic toxicity
Including effects on reproduction,
teratogenicity, carcinogenicity and
mutagenicity.
12. PHASES
Phase 0: Pharmacodynamic (PD) and
pharmacokinetics (PK)
Phase 1: Screening for safety
Phase 2: Efficacy of the drug
Phase 3: Final confirmation of safety and
efficacy
Phase 4: Post marketing surveillance
Phase 5: Translational research
13.
14. • U.S FDA in 2006

liver failure in
humans.
Phenylbutazone
Bone marrow toxicity,
phototox & liver tox
only in humans
16. Penicillin
Discovered in 1929
Not used till 1939
because of its
ineffectiveness in
curing infected rabbits
Furosemide
Experiments in
mice: extensive
liver damage
Aspirin
Causes teratogenic
malformation in mice,
rats, dogs, cats, rabbits
and monkeys
17. Phase 0 or microdose
• Microdosing :
• Less than 1/100th of the dose calculated to
yield a pharmacological effect of the test
substance based on primary
pharmacodynamic data obtained from in vitro
and in vivo (typically doses in or below the low
microgram range) and at a maximum dose of
<100microgram
18. Objectives of microdosing study
Toclarify bioavailability and PK profiles
Toclarify metabolic profiles
Toobtain information on tissue distribution
81
19. Basic features
First-in-human trial conducted prior to
traditional Phase 1 study
Small number of subjects (≈10-15)
Limited drug exposure
Low, non-toxic doses (<100mcg)
Short duration (≈ ≤7 days)
No therapeutic intent
Eliminate bad agents early (rapid clearance,
poor bioavailability, fails to reach target)
21. • Plasma / urine / biopsy sample serially
collected
• Sample analyzed for parent drug and
metabolite
• Microdose -> micro plasma drug concentration
• Extremely sensitive analytical methods
required
22. 2

POSITRON EMISSION
TOMOGRAPHY (PET)
Drug specific receptor ligand
labeled with a short lived
positron emitting isotope
Distribution of drug and
relative concentration at
target area over time can be
visualized
Info: mostly PD data through
real time imaging and limited
PK data
24. Accelerator mass spectrometry
AMS works on isotope ratio
method
Measures total 14C content
As well as 14 C content ratio
of parent drug to metabolite
after separation by HPLC
Info: Extent of metabolism
measure of first pass effect
26. Study in sensitive population
• Inherent low risk of toxicity: PK studies can be
undertaken
27. 34 82% were scalable

LITERATURE REVIEW
There are 45 drugs with data (in peered
reviewed literature ) comparing microdose PK
to therapeutic dose PK
29. Single ascending dose studies
(SAD)
• SAD those in which small groups (3) of subjects are
given a single dose of the drug while they are
observed and tested for a period of time.
• If no adverse effects, dose is escalated with 3 new
healthy subjects
• If toxicity is observed then 3 more subjects are
given the same dose and if found toxic, the previous
dose is considered as max. tolerated dose (MTD).
30. Multiple ascending dose (MAD)
• MAD are conducted to understand the
pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of
multiple doses of the drug.
• A group of patients receives multiple low doses of
the drug
• Samples (of blood, and other fluids) are collected at
various time points
How the drug is processed within the body- analyzed
31. Food effect studies
• Volunteers are given 2 identical doses of the drug
on different occasion, one while fasting and
another after being fed
32. PHASE 2
First time in patients with target disease
100-300 subjects
Phase 2A (IIA)
• - Assess dosing requirements
Phase 2B (IIB)
• - Study efficacy
Study design – case series, RCT
33.
34. PHASE 3
Compare new treatments with the best
currently available treatment
- Confirms its effectiveness
- Monitor side effects
Randomized controlled multicenter
trials
Drug licensing studies (pre-marketing phase)
Large study groups (300-3000 subjects)
35. • Phase IIIA
- conducted prior to regulatory submission
of a new drug application.
• Phase IIIB
- after submission, but before approval the
new drug.
36. PHASE 4
Post marketing surveillance
Safety surveillance
Rare or long term adverse effects over a
much larger patient population
Harmful effects discovered by phase IV
trials may result in a drug being no longer
sold, or restricted to certain rules.
• E.g.: Rofecoxib
37. Phase 5
• Used to signify the integration of a new clinical
treatment into widespread public health
• It is a survey without administration of drug
• Focus is to determine whether or not the
therapeutic effect is realized in day to day clinical
practice
38. • Toseek additional marketing claims for
-new formulation
-new indication
-new combination
Some example
• Phenytoin sodium / lactose
• Phenytoin uses
• Methyldopa + diuretic combination
39. Basic features
• No dosing
• No patient monitoring
• Main focus – new therapy
• All reported use
• Research on data collected

41. • Treatment Trials- test experimental treatments, new
combinations of drugs, or new approaches to surgery or
radiology/radiation therapy.
• Prevention Trials- look for better ways to prevent disease in
people who have never had them or prevent them from
returning.
• Diagnostic Trials- conducted to find better tests or procedures
for diagnosing a particular disease or condition.
• Screening Trials- test the best way to detect certain diseases or
health conditions.
• Quality of Life- explore ways to improve comfort and the
quality of life for individuals with chronic illness
