Advancing urological care through research
We’re thrilled to offer Clinical Trials at our Tustin office — a significant milestone in our continuous effort to provide the latest and most effective treatments in urological care. Your participation may help advance medical science and benefit future generations.
What clinical trials are, and why they matter
Clinical trials are research studies that explore whether a medical strategy, treatment, or device is safe and effective for humans. These studies may also show which medical approaches work best for certain illnesses or groups of people.
Clinical trials produce information that helps patients and their health-care providers make better health-related decisions. Your participation helps in advancing medical science — potentially benefiting future generations.
Current research studies
Two active clinical trials are currently enrolling at our Tustin office. Each addresses a common, often-underserved urological condition. Click through to learn more about eligibility and what participation involves.
Locus ELIMINATE
A research study evaluating a new approach to recurring urinary tract infections in women. For patients who have experienced repeat UTIs and are interested in exploring an investigational treatment option.
RESTRAIN-SUI
A study for women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) who are overweight or have obesity. Examines an investigational approach to addressing SUI in this specific population.
More trials coming soon
Additional clinical trials will be launching in the future — stay tuned for new enrollment opportunities. Interested in being notified when new studies open? Contact our research team below.
Benefits and risks of participation
Each clinical trial has its own benefits and risks. Being fully informed is the foundation of every research participation decision.

How clinical trials actually work
Four common questions about logistics, costs, oversight, and your rights as a research participant.
Who pays for the clinical trial?
Who would be in charge of my care?
Is there follow-up after the trial?
Can I quit the trial?
Led by Dr. Lamia Gabal, MD, FPMRS
Dr. Gabal serves as principal investigator for all clinical trials at Prestige Medical Group. As a board-certified urologist with a subspecialty in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery, she brings decades of clinical experience to her oversight of research participants. Patients enrolled in trials maintain their full physician-patient relationship with Dr. Gabal throughout — and receive the same standard of care delivered to every Prestige Medical Group patient.
