How to Join a Clinical Trial at CNRI
Find a StudyWhat to Expect
Contact Us
Call our San Diego or Los Angeles research center, or fill out our online form. Our team will answer your questions, explain what to expect, and help you find a study that may be right for you. There is no obligation at this stage.
Informed Consent
Before joining a study, our team will walk you through the study purpose, what each visit involves, whether a placebo is used, and potential risks and benefits. You'll have time to ask questions and decide if you want to participate. You are never pressured to join.
Screening Visit
If you may qualify, we'll schedule a screening visit at our research center. This typically includes a health history review and medical evaluation, all at no cost to you. This visit helps our doctors determine whether a study is a safe and appropriate fit.
Participate
Once enrolled, your study may involve outpatient visits where you come in for scheduled check-ins and return home the same day, or inpatient stays where you remain at our facility overnight with meals, a comfortable place to rest, and round-the-clock care from our medical team. Visits may include taking a study medication, completing questionnaires about your symptoms, and routine check-ups with our licensed physicians. Our team is available between visits if you have questions or concerns.
Follow-Up
After the active study period, we may schedule follow-up visits to monitor your health and ensure a smooth transition back to your regular care.
