We’re tracking 81 recruiting adolescent studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07186556Recruiting
Exercise program for fatigue in young brain tumor survivors
This study tests whether a home-based exercise program (done through video calls) can help reduce fatigue in young adult brain tumor survivors. If you’re 18–39 and struggle with tiredness after treatment, this program may help you feel better.
Houston, TexasAges 18–39 - NCT07247188RecruitingPhase 3
Pneumococcal vaccine study for children with sickle cell disease
This trial tests a single dose of a new pneumococcal vaccine (21-valent) in children and teens with sickle cell disease. It aims to see if the vaccine can help protect against serious infections caused by pneumococcus bacteria, which are especially dangerous for people with SCD.
Houston, TexasAges 2–17 - NCT07213973RecruitingPhase 2
Study of povorcitinib for teens with hidradenitis suppurativa
This trial tests an oral medication called povorcitinib for adolescents aged 12–17 with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) that hasn't improved with standard treatments like antibiotics. It aims to see how well the drug works and if it's safe.
Bellaire, TexasAges 12–17 - NCT03571321RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib plus chemotherapy for Ph-like B-ALL
This early-phase study tests whether adding ruxolitinib (a targeted medicine) to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes in adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed Ph-like B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It targets specific genetic features (“JAK-targetable signature”) thought to make the leukemia more responsive to JAK-blocking treatment.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–39 - NCT07513129RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combination for relapsed T-cell blood cancer in teens and young adults
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (venetoclax, dexamethasone, bortezomib, and daratumumab) to treat T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma that has come back or stopped responding to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help patients aged 12–30 achieve remission.
Houston, TexasAges 12–30 - NCT07567131Recruiting
Understanding sun sensitivity in rare porphyria disorders
This study tracks how your body reacts to sunlight if you have erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) or X-linked protoporphyria (XLP)—rare genetic conditions that cause painful skin reactions to sun exposure. Researchers will use special devices and daily logs to better understand your symptoms and how light affects your skin.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT07660198RecruitingPhase 3
Pneumonia vaccine catch-up study for kids and teens
This trial tests a catch-up pneumococcal vaccine for children and adolescents who may have missed some doses. It aims to see how safe and effective the vaccine is in healthy kids aged 15 months to 17 years.
Houston, TexasAges 1.3 years–17 years - NCT07521371Enrolling by invitation
Intranasal Insulin for Autism in Children and Young Adults
This study observes how intranasal insulin (a form of insulin delivered through the nose) affects children and young adults with autism spectrum disorder who are already using or planning to use it as part of their regular care. Researchers will track changes in behavior and social skills over about 6 months.
Spring, TexasAges 4–21 - NCT05929807Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Weekly injection study for children with achondroplasia
This trial looks at how safe and effective weekly under-the-skin (subcutaneous) TransCon CNP is for children and teens with achondroplasia over the long term. You may be considered if your child has already finished a previous TransCon CNP study and can follow weekly injection and follow-up visits.

What taking part in a adolescent 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.
Adolescent trials in other states
Common questions
- Are there adolescent clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 81 recruiting adolescent 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 adolescent 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 adolescent 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 adolescent 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.
