Chapter 259 Drug Clinical Trials



After morning exercise.

Su Zhengnan left the community and then found a breakfast shop to eat something.

Ring ring!

Just as Su Zhengnan finished eating breakfast.

His phone suddenly rang; it was a call from his senior brother, Chu Xingyun.

Su Zhengnan answered the phone and said, "Senior Brother, good morning. Is there something you need so early in the morning?"

Chu Xingyun smiled and said, "I do have something to ask you. The prescription you gave me has passed the drug administration's testing, and the first phase of clinical trials has begun. So I wanted to ask when you would be free to come and take a look."

"Several patients experienced mild dizziness and vomiting after taking the medication, but otherwise there were no major problems."

"Some patients experienced mild dizziness and vomiting?"

Upon hearing what the senior brother said...

Su Zhengnan raised an eyebrow slightly, thought for a moment and said, "How about I come over now? I'm on holiday here anyway."

Now?

Chu Xingyun glanced at the time and said, "Alright, then come over now. I'll be waiting for you at the First Clinical Trial Hospital for Drugs in Beijing."

"Okay, I understand."

Su Zhengnan nodded and hung up the phone, then hailed a taxi.

Maybe I should buy a car!

Otherwise, it's inconvenient to have to take a taxi every time I run around like this.

Su Zhengnan sat in the back seat of the taxi for a while and decided to take some time in the next couple of days to go to the 4S store to look at cars and then buy one to use for transportation.

Maybe then I can drive directly back to my hometown and save myself the trouble of taking the high-speed rail.

The First Hospital for Clinical Trials of Drugs in Beijing is quite a distance from where Su Zhengnan lives.

Leaving aside the issue of traffic congestion in Beijing during holidays.

The taxi driver drove for almost an hour before finally getting Su Zhengnan to his destination.

Afterwards, Su Zhengnan paid the fare and got out of the car, arriving at the main entrance of the First Clinical Trial Hospital for Drugs in Beijing.

As a professional drug clinical trial hospital, it differs from ordinary medical institutions.

This place does not directly accept patient consultations, but focuses on areas such as new drug development and clinical trials.

The hospital houses a series of highly specialized laboratories and research departments, bringing together numerous medical experts and researchers dedicated to exploring new treatments and drugs.

Su Zhengnan took a deep breath and strode towards the hospital entrance.

As expected, he was stopped by the security guard at the entrance.

"Hello, this is a state secret agency, and private individuals are not allowed to enter."

A security guard in his forties blocked Su Zhengnan's path and reprimanded him sternly.

Su Zhengnan stopped with a smile, took out his phone and called his senior brother Chu Xingyun, then explained the situation.

Not long after.

A young man wearing a white coat and glasses came out from inside.

The other person smiled and said a few words to the security guard, then walked over and looked Su Zhengnan up and down, asking:

"You must be Su Zhengnan, Teacher Chu's junior brother, Doctor Su?"

"Ah, yes, I am Chu Xingyun's junior brother."

Su Zhengnan smiled and shook hands with the other party.

The man smiled and nodded, saying, "Hello, I am the person in charge here, and also a student of Teacher Chu. My name is Gu Yunxuan."

At this point, Gu Yunxuan paused for a moment, then continued:

"If we're going by seniority, I should call you Uncle Su."

"Are you the senior brother's student?"

A hint of joy flashed across Su Zhengnan's face. It seemed that this person was practically family!

Although there is a fundamental difference between students and disciples.

But the other party had learned knowledge from the senior brother, so he could be considered a junior disciple.

Gu Yunxuan smiled and nodded, then gestured for him to leave, saying, "Let's go, Uncle Su, Professor Chu is waiting for you over at the clinical laboratory building!"

"Hehe, okay!"

Su Zhengnan responded and followed the other person inside.

The security guard glanced at him, and naturally, the other party wouldn't stop him anymore.

The First Clinical Trial Hospital for Drugs in Beijing is located in a relatively remote area, but it occupies a considerable area.

Su Zhengnan followed Gu Yunxuan for about twenty minutes before arriving at the clinical trial building. They then took the elevator to the sixth floor, the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinical Trials.

Soon, Su Zhengnan met his senior brother, Chu Xingyun.

Upon seeing him arrive, Chu Xingyun handed him a document and said:

"This is the report of this clinical trial, please take a look."

Su Zhengnan took the report data and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, as his senior brother had said, most patients had no abnormalities, and only a few cases had mild adverse reactions.

After reviewing the data in my hand.

Su Zhengnan pondered for a moment and said, "It seems we need to further optimize the prescription. These patients who experienced mild adverse reactions are probably not isolated cases. I need to see the patients themselves."

"Yes, that's what I think too. But this is only the data from the first phase of clinical trials. There are still second and third phases of clinical trials to come. Don't be too impatient, junior brother."

Chu Xingyun nodded, and then said as he walked outside, "Let's go, I'll take you to see those patients."

"Okay!"

Su Zhengnan nodded and immediately followed Chu Xingyun's footsteps.

It's important to understand that a drug's clinical trial isn't something that can be decided in just one phase, as patients' conditions are extremely complex, and not everyone's situation is exactly the same.

Clinical trials for drugs are generally divided into phases one, two, three, and four, with a final bioequivalence trial.

Only after all these clinical trials have passed.

A drug is only considered suitable for most patients and allowed to be manufactured for patients to take.

Su Zhengnan followed his senior brother Chu Xingyun into the ward, where they saw several patients resting.

Chu Xingyun pointed to the patients and said, "These are the patients who experienced adverse reactions. Junior brother, you can take a look for yourself."

As he spoke, Chu Xingyun introduced Su Zhengnan to the patients.

When the patients saw that Su Zhengnan was so young, a look of disbelief flashed in their eyes.

However, Chu Xingyun is there.

Even if they didn't believe in Su Zhengnan's medical skills, they wouldn't say it out loud, much less object to Su Zhengnan examining their bodies.

Keep in mind that they had all signed voluntary clinical protocols.

For them, who were already suffering from terminal brain tumors, the hospital had already determined that they were going to die soon.

But right now, not only can you take the new drug, but it's all free.

For them, this was nothing short of a high-stakes gamble where they could comfortably win without lifting a finger.

Even if they lose the bet, it doesn't really mean they've lost anything.

After all, the doctors had already determined that they wouldn't live much longer.

Su Zhengnan first looked at their medical records, then took their pulses one by one and personally diagnosed their conditions.

After the diagnosis, Su Zhengnan said thoughtfully, "This mild adverse reaction seems to be both accidental and inevitable. Let me adjust the dosage of the prescription and see!"

Chu Xingyun smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll just help out. You can decide for yourself, Junior Brother."

Upon hearing Chu Xingyun's words...

Standing behind him, Gu Yunxuan couldn't help but open his mouth wide, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

What's going on here?

Was the decision on this drug's clinical trial made by Uncle Su?

He originally thought that the clinical diagnosis of this Chinese medicine prescription was made by his teacher, Chu Xingyun!

Unexpectedly, it was this young junior uncle in front of me who caused it.

For a moment, Gu Yunxuan was completely shocked!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

After thinking for a moment, Su Zhengnan immediately made adjustments to the prescription.

After writing down the adjusted prescription, he looked up and smiled at his senior brother Chu Xingyun, saying, "Adjusting it according to this prescription should prevent any further adverse reactions."

"Okay, sure!"

Chu Xingyun took the prescription and looked at it, then handed it to Gu Yunxuan and instructed him:

"In the second phase of clinical trials, follow this prescription and remember to closely monitor the patient's condition, record data and changes in the patient's body in a timely manner."

"Okay, I understand."

Gu Yunxuan nodded in agreement.

He naturally had no objection to the teacher's instructions.

Although he is one of the people in charge here.

However, Chu Xingyun also has a certain say here, so as a student, he naturally has to cooperate fully.

Moreover, Chu Xingyun specifically applied for special funding support from higher authorities for the clinical trials of this formula.
