We’re tracking 3 recruiting lumbar radiculopathy studies with a site in California — including Early Phase 1 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06421558Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for lower back nerve pain
This study tests whether a mild electrical stimulation applied to the lower back can help relieve pain from a pinched nerve. It involves weekly sessions for 6 weeks.
Escondido, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07222787Recruiting
Testing a new spinal implant for lower back fusion
This trial tests a new spinal implant system (CORUS-LX) for fusing two lower back discs that are causing pain. It is meant for people with severe, long-lasting back or leg pain that hasn't improved with non-surgical treatments.

Study brain changes behind cannabis pain relief
This early study looks at how the brain may respond to cannabis to reduce long-lasting lower back pain. You may be asked to follow strict rules about cannabis, opioids, and safety checks (including MRI) to help researchers understand the brain mechanisms.

What taking part in a lumbar radiculopathy 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 lumbar radiculopathy clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 3 recruiting lumbar radiculopathy 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 lumbar radiculopathy 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 lumbar radiculopathy 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.
