Volunteer Studies
Volunteer participation in clinical trials and observational studies is vital to disease research. No matter how promising a new drug, vaccine or procedure looks when tested in the laboratory or on animals, it cannot be approved for general use in humans until it has been carefully evaluated through several phases of clinical study that include volunteer participants. Observational studies are also crucial to determining cause and effect in human health, including how behavior, lifestyle, genetic factors and other traits may help prevent disease or contribute to disease risk. Some of our studies seek healthy participants for prevention research that may involve dietary changes, vitamin supplementation, increased physical activity or adoption of other health-promoting behaviors.
DUET Breast Cancer Study
The Developing Understanding of the Environment of Disseminated Tumor Cells (DUET) study is to identify new ways of preventing breast cancer patients from dying of their disease.
HA-1 TCT-T Cell Study
Fred Hutch is recruiting patient with leukemia or related blood disorders who have relapsed after blood or marrow transplant to a phase 1 treatment study. Eligible participants may be offered a new type of cell therapy.
Immunity to Respiratory Illnesses
The Flu Study research team, in partnership with Fred Hutch, is looking for participants for a research study about immunity to respiratory illnesses like COVID-19 and influenza.
Dietary Intervention to Reduce Pain for Endometriosis
We are conducting a dietary intervention study which looks at the effects of a healthy diet on pain levels in people with endometriosis. We are looking for participants who may be assigned to either an intervention arm (healthy diet) or control arm (regular diet) for a 12-week period.
HIV Vaccine Studies
We are enrolling HIV-negative volunteers for a number of HIV vaccine studies. The products used in our trials are not produced from live HIV or from HIV-infected human cells and cannot cause HIV infection.
The Air Study
Fred Hutch is recruiting individuals to participate in a study to learn about how to reduce personal exposure to air pollution, a known risk factor for lung cancer. We hope to use the information that we gather to develop larger studies to increase knowledge and awareness of the harmful health effects of air pollution.
Malaria Studies
We are working to develop vaccines and medicines to prevent and limit malaria. To do this, we need healthy volunteers to take part in our clinical research studies. Read the general criteria and use our screening tool to see if you qualify for a study.
PALS
Prostate Cancer Active Lifestyle (PALS) is enrolling volunteers with low-grade prostate cancer who have chosen active surveillance of their disease. The goal is to learn whether weight loss through diet and exercise can slow the progression of prostate cancer.
ADAPT Study
The Assessing Diet, Appetite and Physiology Throughou Weight Loss (ADAPT) study is interested in learning why weight loss stops and if body and brain changes can predict halted weight loss, known as an involuntary weight loss plateau.
