- NCT05424354RecruitingPhase 4
Test powder dressing vs usual care for recent burn wounds
This study compares a transforming powder dressing to the standard dressing for partial-thickness burn wounds. It aims to see whether the powder dressing helps wounds heal better and safely when used soon after the burn.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT01297400RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a topical treatment for thermal burns
This trial studies whether a topical medicine (MW-III) is safe and helps heal thermal burns. It is for adults with relatively limited burn size and certain burn depths, while excluding infected or high-risk wounds.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01166893Recruiting
Imaging tests to measure burn healing and severity
This trial uses special imaging methods, including a laser-based technique, to judge how severe a burn wound is and how likely it is to heal. The goal is to see whether these scans can help doctors track burn healing more accurately.

What taking part in a burns study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there burns clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting burns studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a burns study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a burns trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
