In this article, we will define preclinical and clinical CROs, as well as highlight the unique needs and challenges of these organizations in their respective stages of drug research. What is a Pre-Clinical CRO? The global preclinical CRO market was estimated to be valued at US$5.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach US$10.2

This improvement stems from several factors, including the FDA’s emergency use authorization (EUA) of a number of therapies found to be safe and effective for COVID-19. ACTIV was founded last April to accelerate drug research that typically requires more than a decade of clinical ups and downs to develop a safe, effective therapy.

You can do a challenge trial with deadly diseases, but you need a “rescue therapy.” There have been deaths in phase 1 medical and drug research among healthy participants. We wouldn't do a challenge trial for Ebola, because the disease is extremely severe, and there are currently no licensed treatments or vaccines.
