Frequently asked questions

How much do paid clinical trials in St. Paul 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.
Do I need to be sick to join a clinical trial in St. Paul?
No. Many studies recruit healthy volunteers, especially early-phase studies run at dedicated research centers. Others need participants diagnosed with a specific condition. Every trial lists its eligibility criteria — age range, condition, medications — and the study team screens you before enrollment.
Are clinical trials in St. Paul 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.
How often do new paid studies open in St. Paul?
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 St. Paul.
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 St. Paul typically complete one or two studies per year.
