Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 15 recruiting acute respiratory distress syndrome studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07086755RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Vadadustat treatment for lung injury from infection
This trial tests a pill called vadadustat for people with a serious lung condition called ARDS, which makes it hard to breathe. The drug may reduce inflammation and improve oxygen levels, helping patients recover without needing a breathing tube.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06703073RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new treatments for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
This trial is testing new treatments for people with ARDS, a serious lung condition. The goal is to find therapies that help patients breathe better and recover faster. If you or a loved one has ARDS, this study may offer access to experimental treatments.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06701656RecruitingPhase 2
Testing bevacizumab for breathing problems from ARDS
This trial tests if bevacizumab can help people with ARDS (a serious lung condition) breathe better. It is for patients with mild, moderate, or severe ARDS who are already in the hospital.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06701682RecruitingPhase 2
Study of vilobelimab for moderate to severe ARDS
This trial tests a drug called vilobelimab for people with moderate or severe ARDS (a serious lung condition). It aims to find if this treatment can help improve breathing and outcomes.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06701669RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Paridiprubart for moderate to severe ARDS
This trial tests a new medicine called paridiprubart to see if it can help people with moderate or severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a serious lung condition. It may be an option if you have low oxygen levels and no known allergy to the drug.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03642002Recruiting
Music therapy for adults on breathing machines in the ICU
This trial tests whether music therapy can improve comfort and recovery for adults who need a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation) in the ICU for at least 48 hours. It may help with stress, mood, and other ICU-related symptoms while you are in critical care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05354141RecruitingPhase 3
Tested treatment with tiny lung particles for moderate to severe ARDS
This Phase 3 trial studies an “extracellular vesicle” treatment in people with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung breathing problem. The goal is to see whether the treatment can improve outcomes compared with standard care.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT05795465RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for people with acute respiratory distress syndrome
This Phase 2 trial tests GEn-1124 to see if it can improve outcomes in people with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). You may be eligible if the study drug can be started very soon after ARDS is diagnosed and if you meet the safety and health requirements.
Houston, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05947955RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for infection-related lung failure in adults
This Phase 2 trial tests Rhu-pGSN in adults with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by an infection. If you qualify, the study may help determine whether the drug improves outcomes in this short-term, life-threatening lung condition.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06402318Recruiting
Quick breath test for COVID, flu, and RSV
This study tests a breathalyzer device that quickly detects COVID-19, flu, and RSV from your breath. If you are already being tested for these viruses, you may join to see if this new method works as well as the usual swab test.
Fort Sam Houston, TexasAges 18–89 - NCT06690801Recruiting
Nitric oxide breathing gas for children with lung failure
This trial tests whether adding a breathing gas called nitric oxide to standard care helps children with severe lung failure (ARDS) recover faster. It is for children on a breathing machine who still have low oxygen levels.
Houston, TexasAges birth–21 years - NCT06066502RecruitingPhase 3
Precision ventilation for ARDS
This study tests whether a customized breathing machine approach ("precision ventilation") is better than usual care for patients with ARDS. The goal is to improve oxygen levels and recovery while avoiding lung damage.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06938217Enrolling by invitation
Low-flow ECMO for adults with severe breathing failure
This study tests whether a gentler, low-blood-flow version of ECMO (a machine that helps oxygenate blood outside the body) is safe and effective for adults with very severe breathing failure. It is for patients who are already on a breathing machine and have very low oxygen levels despite that support.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT04545424RecruitingPhase 2
Testing cooling treatment for severe lung failure in ICU patients
This trial tests whether therapeutic cooling (hypothermia) can improve outcomes in people with ARDS, a serious lung condition causing breathing failure. It may help by reducing harmful inflammation and lung injury, but eligibility is time-sensitive and requires ICU monitoring.
Fort Sam Houston, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT07615010RecruitingPhase 2
agenT-797 Plus Standard Care for Severe Pneumonia With Respiratory Failure
This trial tests whether adding an experimental drug called agenT-797 to standard pneumonia treatment helps patients in the ICU who have severe pneumonia and serious difficulty breathing (acute hypoxemic respiratory failure). The drug is designed to help the immune system fight severe infection.

What taking part in a acute respiratory distress syndrome study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there acute respiratory distress syndrome clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 15 recruiting acute respiratory distress syndrome studies with a site in Texas, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a acute respiratory distress syndrome study in Texas?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Texas to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Texas, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute respiratory distress syndrome trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New acute respiratory distress syndrome studies open in Texas regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
