Clinical Research Services for Glendale Residents

Glendale residents seeking access to tomorrow’s medicines today now have a trusted local research site. Valley Family Medicine, your urgent care center based in San Fernando, proudly extends its Clinical Research Services to the Glendale community. We conduct IRB-approved clinical trials across a diverse range of therapeutic areas, offering eligible participants no-cost investigational medications, vaccines, and medical devices. Whether you are managing a chronic condition like diabetes, heart disease, or arthritis, or you simply want to help advance science, call us at 818-774-0955 or walk in to learn about current studies enrolling Glendale volunteers.

Our clinical research program is built on rigorous safety standards, ethical conduct, and full transparency. Every study is reviewed by an independent Institutional Review Board (IRB) to protect your rights and well-being. Our dedicated team—including certified clinical research coordinators and board-certified principal investigators—guides you through every step: initial phone screening, a thorough informed consent process, baseline medical evaluation (physical exam, labs, EKG as needed), scheduled treatment visits, and follow-up care. You receive all study-related 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 make participation convenient.

Glendale’s diverse, family-oriented community faces a range of health challenges, and our research portfolio reflects that. Current and upcoming studies include trials for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obesity and weight management, 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 cardiology, 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 high-quality, patient-centered site with rapid enrollment, access to Glendale’s rich cultural and linguistic diversity, and excellent retention rates. We deliver quality data, strict protocol adherence, and timely adverse event reporting.
