San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.

What taking part in a advanced or metastatic solid tumors 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 advanced or metastatic solid tumors clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 825 recruiting advanced or metastatic solid tumors 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 advanced or metastatic solid tumors 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 advanced or metastatic solid tumors 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.
