Applications, Limitations, and Considerations of Clinical Trials in a Dish.

Recent advancements in biotechnology forged the path for clinical trials in dish (CTiDs) to advance as a popular method of experimentation in biomedicine. CTiDs play a fundamental role in translational research through technologies such as induced pluripotent stem cells, whole genome sequencing, and organs-on-a-chip. In this review, we explore advancements that enable these CTiD biotechnologies and their applications in animal testing, disease modeling, and space radiation technologies. Furthermore, this review dissects the advantages and disadvantages of CTiDs, as well as their regulatory considerations. Lastly, we evaluate the challenges that CTiDs pose and the role of CTiDs in future experimentation.
