Preclinical testing is crucial for evaluating tissue engineering products before human trials. It involves in vitro studies, animal models, and safety assessments to gauge efficacy and potential risks. These tests help optimize manufacturing processes and determine if a product is ready for clinical trials.
Clinical trials for tissue engineering products follow a phased approach. They start with small safety studies, progress to efficacy testing, and culminate in large-scale trials. Challenges include ethical considerations, regulatory hurdles, and the need for long-term follow-up to ensure product safety and effectiveness.
