Clinical Research Services for Burbank Residents

Burbank residents—whether in entertainment, aerospace, healthcare, or small business—now have a local gateway to participate in cutting-edge clinical research. Valley Family Medicine, your trusted urgent care center based in San Fernando, proudly extends its Clinical Research Services to the Burbank 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. If you have a chronic condition or simply want to help advance medical science, call us at 818-774-0955 or walk in to learn about current studies enrolling Burbank volunteers.

Our clinical research program prioritizes participant safety, ethical conduct, and community benefit. Every study is reviewed by an independent Institutional Review Board (IRB) to protect your rights and minimize risks. Our experienced team—including certified clinical research coordinators and board-certified principal investigators—guides you through each step: initial phone screening, a thorough informed consent process, baseline medical evaluation (physical exam, labs, EKG if required), scheduled treatment visits, and follow-up care. You 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.

Burbank’s unique workforce—from studio production crews to aerospace engineers—faces diverse health challenges. 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 Burbank and the greater San Fernando Valley, and high retention rates. We deliver meticulous source documentation, strict protocol adherence, and timely adverse event reporting.
