What is a Phase 3 trial?

Clinical trials are a series of tests for new medical treatments. A Phase 3 trial, like the one Dognosis is conducting, is a large-scale study involving many participants. Its main goal is to confirm the treatment's effectiveness and monitor for side effects in a diverse group, before it can be approved for wider use.
