Clinical Trials

To look for a clinical trial or research study:

• Go to the Stanford Clinical Trials Directory, a searchable database of all clinical trials or research studies being conducted at Stanford.
• For trials outside of the Stanford Health Care community, go to ClinicalTrials.gov, a searchable directory of all government-funded clinical trials. This NIH website also includes general information on how clinical trials are conducted.

To receive notifications of open clinical trials:

• Sign up for the Stanford Research Registry.
• Sign up for ResearchMatch, a large nationwide network of research institutions and community organizations that provides a searchable list of ongoing clinical studies and notifications of new studies in targeted areas of interest.

To learn more about clinical trials and research studies:

• Visit the Stanford Research Compliance page page on what it means to be a research study participant.
• Visit the Stanford Research Compliance page on the process, risks and rewards of participating in research studies or clinical trials.
• Search the Stanford Community Academic Profiles (CAP) to look for a Stanford investigator who may be conducting research in a specific area of interest.
