Why Phase 1 and 2 Trials Are Essential for Finding Safe and Effective Childhood Cancer Treatments – WeTrials

WeTrials shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Not all clinical trials are the same — especially for children.

In this clip, Dr. Giselle Sholler, in conversation with Janet Fanaki, explains how Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials in pediatric oncology work — and why they’re both essential to finding safer, more effective treatments for childhood cancers.

  •  Phase 1 → Focuses on safety and identifying the right dose
  •  Phase 2 → Tests if that treatment actually works against the cancer

Because kids aren’t just “small adults.” Their trials must be designed with extra care, precision, and protection.

Every phase brings us closer to a future where treatments are not only effective — but kinder.
