UPDATED COVID-19 BOOSTER STUDY

What Is This About?

This clinical research study is designed to evaluate an updated COVID-19 vaccine in adults ages 50–64. As COVID-19 continues to evolve, research studies like this help scientists better understand how updated vaccines perform in different populations and how they may support ongoing public health efforts.

By participating, volunteers contribute valuable information that helps researchers assess important aspects of vaccine research, including immune response and overall safety. The information collected during this study may help guide future vaccine development and public health recommendations.

Participants play a critical role in the research process. Their involvement helps ensure that vaccines are studied in a diverse group of adults and that data reflects real-world populations. This research is conducted under strict clinical guidelines and oversight to ensure participant safety and data integrity.

Participation in this study is voluntary. All study-related procedures are explained in detail during the screening process, and individuals may ask questions at any time before deciding whether to take part.

Screening Visits

Once you meet the initial qualifications for one of our paid clinical trials, you’ll be invited to come in for a screening visit. During this visit, you’ll receive detailed information about the study, and our team will answer any questions you have. Participation is completely voluntary. If you choose to move forward, you’ll be asked to sign a consent form. Depending on the study, we may perform health assessments such as a urine sample, ECG, or lab tests to confirm your eligibility.

Office Visits

If you qualify for the study, you’ll return for scheduled office visits where the study medication may be given, and tests will be performed to evaluate how it’s working. These visits typically include brief check-ups, medical monitoring, and may involve an exam, lab work, or a blood pressure check—depending on the study. Visits can take place over several days or stretch out over a few months. You’ll receive compensation for your time and travel at the end of each visit.

Diaries & Phone Calls

To help track your progress during the study, you may be asked to use an app or complete a digital diary to record important information like how you’re feeling or if you’ve experienced any side effects. This helps our team monitor your health between visits. In some cases, we’ll also schedule brief phone calls to check in—no need to come into the office for these.

Compensation

At RYH, we truly value our volunteers who play a vital role in helping advance potentially life-saving therapies. In addition to receiving complimentary study-related care throughout your participation, you may also be compensated for your time and travel.
