Clinical Phase 2
Dicot Pharma is in Phase 2. Phase 2 studies are conducted on patients to study how effective the drug is in treating the disease in question and to further evaluate the safety of the study drug. Phase 2 is often divided into 2a and 2b, where Phase 2a "Proof of Concept" aims to demonstrate the effect of the study drug in patients and Phase 2b "Dose Finding" aims to determine the dose for the future drug. The dose determined in Phase 2b is later used in Phase 3.
