COVID-19 Clinical Trials

UCLA conducts research for a wide range
of medical disorders and offers patients
opportunities to participate in research and
clinical trials. Following is a description of just
one of our many active clinical trials dedicated
to the research and treatment of COVID-19,
followed by a list of some of the other clinical
studies at UCLA Health that are actively
recruiting participants.
COVID-19 Booster Vaccine in
Autoimmune Disease Non-Responders
This is a randomized, multi-site, adaptive,
open-label clinical trial comparing the immune
response to different COVID-19 vaccine booster
doses in participants with autoimmune disease
requiring immunosuppressive medications.
All study participants will have negative
serologic or suboptimal responses (defined
as a Roche Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 S(RBD) result = 50 U/mL) to initial COVID-19
vaccine regimen with Moderna COVID-19
vaccine, Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine
or Janssen COVID-19 vaccine. The study will
initially focus on five autoimmune diseases:
systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE),
rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis
(MS), systemic sclerosis (SSc) and pemphigus.
