Clinical Research Services for Chatsworth Residents

Chatsworth residents who work hard and value their health now have a local opportunity to participate in pioneering medical research. Valley Family Medicine, your trusted urgent care center based in San Fernando, proudly extends its Clinical Research Services to the Chatsworth community. We conduct IRB-approved clinical trials across a wide range of therapeutic areas, offering eligible participants no-cost access to investigational medications, vaccines, and medical devices. Whether you have a chronic condition like diabetes or simply want to help shape the future of medicine, call us at 818-774-0955 or walk in to learn about current studies enrolling Chatsworth volunteers.

Our clinical research program is designed with safety, ethics, and community benefit at its core. Every study is reviewed by an independent Institutional Review Board (IRB) to ensure your rights are protected and risks are minimized. Our dedicated research team—including experienced clinical research coordinators and board-certified principal investigators—guides volunteers through every step: initial phone screening, thorough informed consent, comprehensive baseline medical evaluation (physical exam, labs, EKG if needed), scheduled treatment visits, and follow-up care. Participants receive all study-related medical services at no cost, including investigational products, laboratory testing, diagnostic imaging, and study-related physician visits. Many studies also offer stipends for time, travel, and parking to reduce any burden.

Chatsworth residents can join trials addressing conditions that affect our industrial and residential community. Our current and upcoming portfolio includes studies for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity, asthma, COPD, osteoarthritis, chronic low back pain, migraine headaches, atopic dermatitis (eczema), psoriasis, and infectious diseases such as COVID-19, influenza, RSV, and shingles. We also conduct vaccine clinical trials and studies focused on preventive medicine, including cardiovascular risk reduction, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and metabolic syndrome. By participating, you gain access to potential breakthrough therapies years before they reach the market, while receiving close medical monitoring from our team.

For research sponsors and contract research organizations (CROs), Valley Family Medicine offers a reliable, patient-centered site with rapid enrollment, diverse patient populations from Chatsworth and the surrounding San Fernando Valley, and high retention rates. We deliver meticulous source documentation, strict protocol adherence, and timely adverse event reporting.
