Adaptive Trials

Adaptive trials are a type of clinical study that allows researchers to modify certain aspects as the trial progresses, based on interim results. This approach enables more efficient testing of treatments by adjusting factors like dosage, patient groups, or treatment allocation to improve outcomes or reduce risks. Instead of fixed protocols, adaptive trials are flexible, aiming to identify the most effective options more quickly and with fewer resources. This methodology helps speed up drug development and ensures better safety and efficacy assessments, ultimately benefiting patients and healthcare innovation.
