Phase II
Phase II trials test whether a drug or other treatment is effective against a specific type of cancer based on the dose and schedule determined to be safe in a phase I trial. Phase II trials may also compare different schedules of giving the treatment. Researchers study a drug or treatment in a relatively small group of people (usually less than 100) with one type of cancer. Most participants in phase II trials have not responded well to standard treatment or do not have a standard treatment available to them.
Phase II trials:
- try to get a better idea of how effective a treatment is for a certain type of cancer
- continue to evaluate how safe the drug is and what effect it has on the body
