Studies you may be able to join near Topeka

These studies are recruiting through partner research networks. We may be paid a referral fee if you complete their screening form — this never changes what you pay (nothing) or the compensation the study offers you.

See which clinical studies you may qualify for

A partner research network matches volunteers with studies that are currently enrolling in the United States. You answer a few screening questions about your health and where you live; if a study looks like a fit, its team contacts you to confirm eligibility.

Screening is free and takes a few minutes. Eligibility and any compensation are confirmed by the study team, not by this site.

Frequently asked questions

How much do paid clinical trials in Topeka pay?
Compensation varies by study length, procedures and overnight stays. Industry surveys report typical payments from $75 to $4,500 per completed study, with simple observational studies at the low end and multi-week inpatient Phase 1 studies at the high end. Each listing's study team will confirm the exact amount before you enroll.
Are clinical trials in Topeka safe?
Every trial on this page is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov, the official NIH registry, and is overseen by an Institutional Review Board (IRB). Before joining you receive an informed consent document detailing procedures, risks and compensation. Participation is voluntary and you can withdraw at any time.
What is the difference between a research center and a hospital study in Topeka?
Dedicated research centers (listed on this page with their Google ratings) run studies as their core business — often healthy-volunteer and vaccine studies with structured compensation. Hospital and university studies tend to focus on patients with specific conditions. Both types are registered and IRB-supervised.
How often do new paid studies open in Topeka?
Constantly — trials open and close enrollment every week. This page is refreshed weekly from the NIH registry. Join the email alert to be notified when a new study opens within 30 miles of Topeka.
Can I be in more than one clinical trial at a time?
Generally no — most studies exclude participants currently enrolled in another trial, and paid Phase 1 studies enforce a washout period (often 30 days or more) between studies. Frequent healthy volunteers in Topeka typically complete one or two studies per year.
