Map

John Muir Physician Network Clinical Research Center successfully performs Phase 3 and 4, FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved trials with new and previously approved medications and devices. The clinical trials cover a broad spectrum of areas and have included studies of diabetes and its complications, irritable bowel syndrome, osteoporosis, obesity, anemia, high cholesterol, gout, weight loss, and depression.

The trials change periodically therefore please call (925) 687-8860 for the most current information or go to www.centerwatch.com for more information on the studies currently offered.

Volunteering to be in a clinical trial is one way to become familiar with, and have access to, a new drug or therapy before it is available on the open market. Volunteering also assists in advancements in understanding of the condition being treated. Extensive explanation of the benefits, risks, and alternatives of participating in the study (called an informed consent document) is given to all participants, and communication with the patient's physician is a critical part of this process.

Call (925) 687-8860 for more information.
