Clinical trials are a method of doing clinical research that are guided by a detailed protocol that has been carefully created to address a specific patient care question. Clinical trials can be broken down into five phases, each of which serves a particular function. Every trial follows a protocol that specifies the kinds of people who are allowed to take part in the study. In addition to stating the duration of the study, the studies also detail the precise plan of operations, tests, drugs, and doses inside the experiment. The rising expenses of drug development in recent years have forced pharma and biotech companies to explore for modernizations and more efficient ways of operating.

A common disease that is both preventable and treatable is Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). A persistent and progressive airflow restriction caused by an augmented chronic inflammatory response in the airways and lungs as a result of irritating particles or gases characterizes this poorly reversible lung disease. One of the main causes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is excessive smoking. Additionally, 10–20% of cases are brought on by exposure to chemical fumes, dust, and other lung irritants while at work or in the environment.

The diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is primarily clinical. The majority of patients have their diagnoses made by primary care doctors. When symptoms like chronic cough, excessive sputum production, and dyspnea appear and last for a long time, screening is advised, especially if these symptoms are also accompanied by a history of smoking or regular exposure to toxins or pollutants at work or in the environment. Although there is currently no cure for COPD, treatment can help to lessen its symptoms and progress.
