Power is an online platform that helps thousands of patients discover FDA-reviewed trials every day. Every trial we feature meets safety and ethical standards, giving patients an easy way to discover promising new treatments in the research stage.

This phase II trial compares the use of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy to chemotherapy with cisplatin, gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil or mitomycin-C and radiation therapy for the treatment of patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil or mitomycin-C, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab with radiation may kill more tumor cells than chemotherapy with radiation therapy in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

V940 + BCG for Bladder Cancer

Bakersfield, California
Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR NMIBC). NMIBC is cancer in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder but has not spread to the bladder muscle or outside of the bladder. High-risk means NMIBC may have a high chance of getting worse or coming back after treatment. HR NMIBC can also include carcinoma in situ (CIS). CIS is bladder cancer that appears flat and is only in the inner layer (surface) of the bladder. CIS is not raised and is not growing toward the center of the bladder. The standard treatment for HR NMIBC is a procedure to remove the tumor called transurethral resection of the bladder tumor (TURBT) followed by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). Standard treatment is something that is considered the first line of treatment for a condition. BCG is an immunotherapy, which is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. However, BCG may not work to treat HR NMIBC in some people. Researchers want to learn if adding V940, the study treatment, to standard treatment can help treat HR NMIBC. V940 is designed to help a person's immune system attack their specific cancer. The goals of this study are to learn: * If people who receive V940 with BCG live longer without the cancer growing, spreading, or coming back, or dying from any cause, compared to people who receive BCG alone * If more people who receive V940 with BCG have their cancer go away (complete response), compared to people who receive BCG alone * How many people who receive V940 without BCG have their cancer go away

Dupilumab + ICS/LABA for Asthma

Bakersfield, California
This study is researching a drug called dupilumab. The study is focused on patients who have uncontrolled asthma. Asthma is a condition where the airways narrow and swell, making it difficult to breathe. Uncontrolled asthma means that patients are still having frequent symptoms while taking their current asthma medication. The aim of the study is to see which regimen is more effective: taking dupilumab with an inhaled asthma medication or only taking a higher dose of the inhaled asthma medication. The type of asthma medication that will be used is a combination inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta-agonist (referred to as an ICS/LABA). Some patients may also receive an additional asthma medication called a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (referred to as a LAMA) if they are already receiving a LAMA. The study is also looking at: • What side effects may happen from taking dupilumab

BI 764524 for Diabetic Retinopathy

Bakersfield, California
This study is open to adults with diabetic retinopathy. People who have non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy of moderate or high severity can join the study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 764524 helps people with diabetic retinopathy. The study also aims to find a suitable treatment plan for BI 764524. Participants are put into 5 groups by chance. Participants in groups 1, 2, and 3 get BI 764524. Over 1 year, they get a different number of injections of the same dose of BI 764524 injected into 1 eye. During some visits, participants may get a sham control, which is done like an eye injection but without a needle, so that participants will not know how many injections of BI 764524 they received. Participants in group 4 only get a sham control. Participants in group 5 (only in the USA) get aflibercept or sham injections during some visits. Aflibercept is a medicine already used to treat diabetic retinopathy. Participants are in the study for one and a half years. During this time, they visit the study site at least 16 times. During this time, doctors regularly do eye exams and visual tests to assess the severity of participants' eye condition. After 1 year of treatment, researchers look at the number of participants with eye improvements. To do so, they compare eye damage and certain severe eye problems between the groups of participants. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do clinical trials in Bakersfield, CA pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do clinical trials in Bakersfield, CA work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across trials in Bakersfield, CA 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Bakersfield, CA is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Bakersfield, CA several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a medical study in Bakersfield, CA ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest clinical trials in Bakersfield, CA ?

Most recently, we added Pembrolizumab + Radiation for Bladder Cancer, V940 + BCG for Bladder Cancer and 4D-150 + EYLEA for Age-Related Macular Degeneration to the Power online platform.
