COVID-19 clinical trials in Utah: what to expect

COVID-19 research has shifted from the acute illness to its aftermath and its prevention. The most active area is long COVID: trials of antivirals, immune treatments and rehabilitation for fatigue, brain fog, breathlessness and rapid-heartbeat symptoms that persist months after infection. Vaccine trials test updated and next-generation vaccines, including nasal and combined flu-and-COVID shots. Treatment trials for people at high risk, and prevention studies for people with weakened immune systems, continue as well.

In Utah, recruiting covid-19 studies are concentrated in Salt Lake City and Clinton. 7 of the 9 are run by a drug or device company, which usually means a larger study with travel reimbursement; the rest are academic or hospital-led.

Who COVID-19 trials usually look for

Long COVID trials ask for symptoms that began after a confirmed or strongly suspected infection and have lasted at least three months, often with a particular symptom named. Acute treatment trials need a positive test within the past few days plus a risk factor such as age or a chronic condition. Vaccine trials specify an age group and your vaccination history, and most want people who are generally healthy. Many trials exclude pregnancy and a recent infection or vaccination.

What taking part involves

Long COVID trials run twelve to twenty-four weeks with questionnaires, sometimes exercise or breathing tests, and visits that can often be done by phone or video; many are placebo controlled. Vaccine trials involve one or two injections, a symptom diary for a week after each, a few blood draws and follow-up calls for a year or more. Acute treatment trials start the day you enroll, with swabs and check-ins for a few weeks. Study treatment and tests are free and visits are usually paid.

Questions worth asking the study team

How many visits must be in person; the chance of placebo; whether you can continue your current treatments; what counts as documentation of your original infection; and whether you will learn your own test results.

A Study to Learn About a Study Medicine Called Ibuzatrelvir in Adult and Adolescent Patients With COVID-19 Who Are Not Hospitalized But Are at Risk For Severe Disease
PHASE3 Huntsville, Alabama +4 sites NCT06679140
This trial is looking for teens aged 12 to 17 who weigh at least 40 kg and adults aged 18 and older, especially those at risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19. Participants should have recently tested positive for COVID-19 and show some symptoms, but they shouldn’t be in need of hospitalization. People with certain serious health issues or those who are very sick right now won't be able to join.

Recruiting
A Study of COVID-19 Vaccine(s) in Children and Adults
PHASE3 Homestead, Florida +4 sites NCT07798648
This trial is looking for children and adults who are at risk for serious COVID-19. Participants will receive a COVID-19 vaccine injection and report any side effects over about 6 months.
Recruiting
A Study to Learn About a COVID-19 Vaccine in Healthy Adults 18 Through 64 Years of Age
PHASE4 Salt Lake City, Utah +4 sites NCT07730450
This trial is looking for healthy adults aged 18 to 64 years to study the safety and effects of an updated COVID-19 vaccine. Participants will receive one injection and be in the study for about 12 months.
Recruiting
Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety Profile of Understudied Drugs Administered to Children Per Standard of Care (POPS)
N/A Phoenix, Arizona +4 sites NCT04278404
This trial is looking for children and young adults who are 21 years old or younger and are currently taking certain medications, or who have had a recent COVID-19 infection. They cannot be pregnant or have had certain recent medical procedures like dialysis, organ transplants, or other serious treatments. If you think your child might fit this description, it could be worth considering.
Recruiting
Long-term COVID and Rehabilitation
NA Salt Lake City, Utah NCT05373043

COVID-19 clinical trials in Utah: common questions

How many COVID-19 clinical trials are recruiting in Utah?
TrialFinder currently lists 9 recruiting COVID-19 clinical trials with study sites in Utah. Results are updated regularly from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry of clinical studies.
Where are COVID-19 clinical trials located in Utah?
Study sites for the COVID-19 trials listed on this page include Salt Lake City. Each trial page lists every participating site with contact details, so you can find the location closest to you.
Do I need insurance to join a COVID-19 clinical trial in Utah?
No. Study-related care is covered by the trial sponsor at no cost to participants, including the study treatment, required lab tests and study visits. Many COVID-19 trials in Utah also compensate participants for time and travel. Health insurance is not required to search or enroll.
How do I qualify for a COVID-19 clinical trial in Utah?
Each study sets its own criteria based on age, COVID-19 diagnosis details, prior treatments, current medications and general health. The fastest way to find out is to contact a research site directly — most will pre-screen you by phone in 10 to 15 minutes at no charge. You can also create a free TrialFinder profile to be matched automatically.
Are there clinical trials for long COVID?
Yes, and they are among the most active COVID trials. Most require symptoms that have lasted three months or more after an infection and name the symptom they study, such as fatigue, brain fog or breathlessness.
Can I join a COVID vaccine trial if I am already vaccinated?
Usually yes. Most current vaccine trials test updated or next-generation vaccines in people who have been vaccinated before, and ask about the date of your last dose.
Do I need a positive test to join a COVID treatment trial?
For acute treatment, yes, within the last few days. Long COVID trials accept a past positive test or a documented clinical diagnosis, and some accept a strongly suspected infection.
