    Clinical trials involve human subjects and are used to test the safety and efficacy of new medical treatments, such as drugs, diets, or medical devices. They have four phases and involve either randomized assignment to treatment or non-randomized assignment. Benefits of participating include early access to new treatments and increased medical monitoring, but risks include side effects, treatment not being better than standard care, or inconvenience from study procedures. Researchers closely supervise trials to protect participants.
