Abstract
Over 1100 cancer drugs are in development representing an increase in effort and progress in cancer drug discovery. The starting point of clinical development is Phase 1 clinical trials and the need for dedicated Phase I units have emerged as forefront necessity even in academic centers. Early phase oncology clinical trial units within an academic center allow for the conduct of clinical research at the highest standards combined with unique opportunities for intellectual development and research collaborations. We outline here some of the practical elements of a robust early drug development unit.
