Paradigm Clinical Opens Modesto Site to Expand Trial Access in CA

Bringing Inclusive Clinical Research to Modesto, CA Paradigm Clinical Research announces the opening of its newest clinical research site in Modesto, California. This expansion aligns with our mission to serve communities historically underrepresented in clinical trials.  The Modesto clinic represents another example of Paradigm Clinical Research’s operating playbook and de novo expansion strategy.  Modesto represents a strategic addition to our footprint, aiming to provide access to clinical trials across the Central Valley region. Our decision to establish a presence in Modesto was driven by the area’s demographic diversity and profound lack of any other professionally managed clinical trial businesses. Our goal in Modesto is to create a robust clinical research ecosystem that supports both study sponsors and the local community. The expansion in Modesto complements Paradigm Clinical Research’s long standing clinic further north in Redding, CA and the company’s strategic interests in the intermediate markets including Sacramento and beyond. This development follows our successful clinic openings in Boise, Idaho, and our flagship site in San Diego. It underscores our mission to provide opportunities to advance the human condition through participation in clinical research.
