La recherche thérapeutique est réalisée sur l'homme par des chercheurs médecins et pharmaciens qui travaillent le plus souvent à l'hôpital. Elle fait suite à la recherche fondamentale et à l'expérimentation animale : la recherche fondamentale permet de comprendre les mécanismes de la maladie et de trouver des moyens (médicaments ou autres) pour bloquer ces mécanismes. C'est la recherche thérapeutique qui permet, ensuite, de savoir si ces moyens sont efficaces contre la maladie. L'expérimentation animale permet de «sélectionner», sur un temps assez court, des nouveaux médicaments efficaces et de «se débarrasser» des médicaments qui s'avèrent être trop toxiques. Seule la recherche thérapeutique permettra ensuite d'étudier chez l'homme les médicaments les plus efficaces et, a priori, les moins toxiques. 2, record 1, French, - recherche%20th%C3%A9rapeutique
