California Clinical Trials
A listing of California clinical trials actively recruiting patient volunteers.
In California there are several research institutes and hospitals that conduct clinical trials. The University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) has one of the largest medical research institutes in the state and conducts clinical trials not only in Los Angeles but all across California. The larger cities in California, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, San Jose, and Sacramento all have ongoing clinical trials dedicated to a variety of conditions, including both paid and non-paid clinical trials.

The primary objective of this study is to determine if 12 months of consuming 50 grams of dried plum daily will prevent bone loss or augment bone accrual of young adult oral contraceptive (OC) users.
Use of CGM in Kidney Transplant Recipients
The investigators want to study the impact CGM (continuous glucose monitoring) has on patients glycemic control as determined by time in range (TIR 70-180 mg/dL) in the Diabetic Kidney Transplant population.
Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Second Generation VIR-7831 Material in Non-hospitalized Participants With Mild to Moderate COVID-19
This is a phase 2 study in which subjects with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) will receive VIR-7831 (Gen1) or VIR-7831 (Gen2) and will be assessed for safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics.
A Phase II Study in Patients With Moderate to Severe ARDS Due to COVID-19
This is a Phase II multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study in Patients with moderate to severe lung injury due to COVID-19 or other potential viral and bacterial pathogens.
Ancillary Study of the Lessening Incontinence With Low-impact Activity Study
The parent trial that supports this ancillary research is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of a group-based yoga intervention to decrease the frequency and impact of urinary incontinence in ambulatory middle-aged and older women. Women aged 50 years and older who report daily or more frequent stress-, urgency-, or mixed-type incontinence, are not already engaged in formal yoga or muscle stretching/strengthening programs, are willing to temporarily forgo other clinical trea ...
Study to Detect Changes in Urinary and Gut Microbiome During Androgen Deprivation Therapy and Radiation Therapy in Patients With Prostate Cancer
This study collects urine and stool samples to determine the ability to identify changes in the microbiome (bacteria, fungi, and viruses that live in the gut and urine) of patients with prostate cancer during androgen deprivation therapy and radiation therapy. Radiation therapy has the potential to harm the genitourinary area or the bowel, causing a feeling of urgency or increased inflammation in the area. The radiation therapy is designed to not irradiate the bowel and bladder areas, but there ...
Pegloticase and Methotrexate Co-administered in Patients With Uncontrolled Gout Who Have Previously Failed Pegloticase Monotherapy
This is a Phase 4, multicenter, open-label trial of pegloticase with MTX (methotrexate) in adult participants with uncontrolled gout who were previously treated with pegloticase without a concomitant immunomodulator and stopped pegloticase due to failure to maintain sUA (serum uric acid) response and/or a clinically mild IR (infusion reaction). Approximately 30 participants will be enrolled. Pegloticase + MTX will be administered for approximately 24 weeks, with an optional extension up to 48 we ...
Simplified IMmunosuppressive Protocol Utilizing Low Dose EnvarsusXR
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of once-daily tacrolimus extended-release (EnvarsusXR) and Azathioprine is non inferior with respect to the composite outcome of acute rejection, graft and patient survival as compared to a combination of twice-daily immediate release tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil/mycophenolic acid.
Trial of PDE4 Inhibition With Roflumilast for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ARQ-151 cream vs vehicle applied once a day for 4 weeks by subjects with atopic dermatitis (eczema).
Trial of PDE4 Inhibition With Roflumilast for the Management of Atopic Dermatitis (INTEGUMENT-II)
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ARQ-151 cream vs vehicle applied once a day for 4 weeks by subjects with atopic dermatitis (eczema).
Study to Compare How the Body Absorbs, Distributes and Excretes the Drug Selitrectinib (BAY2731954) Given as Two Different Tablet Formulations or as Liquid Formulations Including the Effect of Food on the Absorption, Distribution or Excretion of the Different Formulations in Healthy Participants
In this study, the researchers will compare 2 new tablet forms of BAY2731954 with liquid oral forms of BAY2731954. A maximum of 61 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 55 will be asked to participate. The study will have 2 parts. In part 1 researchers want to gather information how the body absorbs, distributes and excretes the drug BAY2731954 given as two different tablet formulations. Participants will take the study drugs on 3 days separated by breaks of at least 3 days between each intake. The dur ...
Randomized Study of Obicetrapib in Combination With Ezetimibe
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 2 study in participants with mild dyslipidemia to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of obicetrapib and ezetimibe combination therapy.
Kaiser Permanente houses over 6,000 physicians in southern California and it is also one of the largest research centers on the state. On its clinical trial division, Kaiser Permanente conducts clinical trials of almost every specialty funded by pharmaceutical companies, government, and foundations.
The Cedars-Sinai Medical Center located in Los Angeles is one of the largest research centers owned and operated by a private hospital in the United States. Focusing on biomedical, cancer, and heart research among other specialties, you can find almost any type of clinical trials for both health and non-healthy volunteers at the research division of Cedar-Sinai Medical Center.
There are around 100,000 clinical trials happening every year across the United States about almost every condition out there. While most clinical trials are testing drugs or medical devices there are also many behavioral and observational trials going on at any point in time. Many paid research studies are held at these California locations.
Clinical trials are incredibly important for making new medical and scientific discoveries, finding new and better methods for diagnosing medical conditions early, testing new interventions, and even developing safer and more effective surgical procedures.
In order for all these discoveries to me made available to the general population they need to go through years of rigorous testing both in healthy and non-healthy volunteers. During those years, medical professionals follow a protocol that has been previously approved by the FDA or other regulatory agency to test the effectiveness and safety of their discovery.
Other people choose to participate in a clinical trial because they feel it is a good way to contribute to the advancement of medical knowledge and that their participation can help many people in the future.
