Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT05010109Recruiting
Testing heart safety and fitness during lung cancer chemoradiation
This study looks at how lung cancer treatment affects the heart and whether a “walking test” and blood tests can track heart fitness and injury. It may help by improving how cancer therapy is planned and monitored for heart safety.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04929223RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted drug study for metastatic colon or rectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests targeted cancer treatments in people with metastatic colorectal cancer, using genetic “biomarker” results to match you to the right treatment group. It focuses first on safety, and also looks for early signs the treatment may work in specific tumor subgroups.
Denton, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04996875RecruitingPhase 2
Bezuclastinib for advanced mast cell disease
This Phase 2 study tests bezuclastinib, a targeted medicine, in people with advanced systemic mastocytosis (including certain advanced forms with blood cancers). It aims to shrink measurable disease and improve symptoms, while helping people who may also need treatment for an associated blood cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04216732Recruiting
Study of medullary thyroid cancer progression in a registry
This study follows people with medullary thyroid cancer to better understand how the disease changes over time, including in advanced stages. You may help improve future treatment planning and care for people with medullary thyroid cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03941756Recruiting
Lymph bypass before underarm node surgery to prevent swelling
This study looks at whether adding a lymph “bypass” procedure before underarm lymph node surgery can lower the chance of arm or chest swelling (lymphedema) after cancer treatment. It compares people having lymph node surgery for breast cancer with plans for radiation, and a melanoma comparison group.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03606967RecruitingPhase 2
Individualized vaccine added to standard treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine to durvalumab (an immunotherapy), tremelimumab (another immunotherapy), and chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help your immune system recognize your specific tumor features.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07697456RecruitingPhase 2
Study of advanced therapies for Crohn's or ulcerative colitis
This study tests advanced treatments for people with moderate to severe Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis who haven't responded to at least one previous therapy. It aims to find better options for managing these conditions.

Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04134780Recruiting
Ultrasound tests to spot early breast cancer treatment response
This study uses special ultrasound imaging (and may use MRI results) to look for early signs of how locally advanced breast cancer responds to chemotherapy, with or without radiation. If the imaging changes early, it could help doctors adjust treatment sooner.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05049057RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a nerve-blocking shot for recent mild TBI
This Phase 2 study tests a medication that blocks a pain signal (a CGRP receptor antibody) in people who recently had a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and are also dealing with post-traumatic headache (PTH). The goal is to see if it can reduce symptoms and improve recovery after the injury.

Maintenance treatment for TP53-wildtype endometrial cancer
This trial tests navtemadlin as a maintenance (ongoing) treatment to help prevent endometrial cancer from coming back after chemotherapy works. It is mainly for people whose cancer has certain genetic features (TP53 “wildtype”) and who had a strong response to first-line taxane–platinum chemo.

Tirzepatide for weight loss in children aged 6 to under 12
This study tests a once-weekly medication called tirzepatide to help children aged 6 to under 12 with obesity lose weight. It compares the medication to a placebo (inactive shot) to see if it safely helps with weight loss in this age group.
Austin, TexasAges 6–11 - NCT07807163RecruitingPhase 2
Study of ficerafusp alfa with pembrolizumab for head and neck cancer
This study tests a new drug called ficerafusp alfa combined with pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) in people with head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. The drug targets a protein that may help the immune system fight the cancer. The study is comparing two different schedules of giving the drug to see which is better.
Tyler, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07776691RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Raludotatug Deruxtecan for Advanced Ovarian Cancer

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.
