Additionally, he actively collaborates as the principal investigator in the phase 3 clinical trial E.mbrace Amendment 2 VAC52416 (JNJ-78901563 [ExPEC9V]), a study aimed at assessing the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of vaccination with ExPEC9V in preventing invasive extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli disease in adults aged 60 years and older with a history of urinary tract infection in the past two years.

His ongoing research projects include a comparative study between multiparametric magnetic resonance systems of 1.5 and 3 Teslas using the PIRADS version 2 classification in the diagnosis of prostate cancer (registered under number 40/2021); a cross-sectional study of PSA density assessment and multiparametric resonance as predictors of prostate cancer (registered under number 39/2021); and the evaluation of the Oncotype Dx genetic test in therapeutic decisions for low-risk prostate cancer, a multicenter study (registered under number 29/2021). From 2020 to the present, he has been conducting research on predictive models and validation of diagnostic tests in prostate cancer, focusing on multiparametric prostate MRI and fusion prostate biopsy as part of his PhD at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Between 2018 and 2019, he actively collaborated in the RITUMAN study, a multicenter and coordinated study on the management of patients with recurrent urinary tract infections. From 2016 to 2017, he contributed to the PREVENT-LIT study, which focused on the management of patients with urolithiasis. From 2011 to 2013, he participated in the EMPARO-CU study, a multicenter and coordinated study examining the care process and outcomes in a cohort of patients diagnosed with urological cancer (bladder and prostate).
