Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked an extraordinary worldwide reaction, including scientific trials to develop viable therapies, vaccinations, and prevention measures. This abstract gives a complete explanation of the clinical trial process for COVID-19. It describes the major steps in conducting clinical trials, such as research design, participant recruiting, informed consent, data collecting, analysis, and reporting. Various forms of clinical trials, including randomised controlled trials, observational studies, and adaptive trials, are reviewed, along with their benefits and drawbacks. Furthermore, ethical considerations and regulatory requirements for COVID-19 clinical studies are discussed. The importance of collaboration among researchers, healthcare providers, regulatory agencies, and pharmaceutical corporations in accelerating the clinical trial process is highlighted.
