Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07232069RecruitingPhase 3
Early heart disease trial for women and men with mild plaque buildup
This trial tests whether two medicines, a statin and colchicine, can slow or stop early heart artery plaque from growing in people who have mild plaque but no heart disease symptoms yet. It uses special CT scans to measure plaque over 2 years.
Houston, TexasAges 30–60 - NCT07448038RecruitingPhase 2
Study of selnoflast for heart artery inflammation
This trial tests a drug called selnoflast to see if it can reduce inflammation in the arteries of people with atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) who are at risk for heart attacks or other serious heart problems.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT04774159RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose colchicine to lower risk in leg artery disease
This trial tests whether low-dose colchicine can reduce “residual” risk—future heart and blood-vessel problems—in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). It targets PAD symptoms and complications like poor blood flow in the legs, even after certain procedures.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05488431RecruitingPhase 2
Bempedoic acid to lower cholesterol and inflammation in HIV
This Phase 2 trial studies whether bempedoic acid can lower cholesterol and inflammation in people with HIV who are already on effective HIV medications. It may help reduce signs of artery inflammation that can contribute to heart and stroke risk.
Houston, TexasAges 40 years+ - NCT02915198RecruitingPhase 4
Metformin for prediabetes to reduce heart and blood-vessel events
This trial tests whether taking metformin in people with prediabetes can lower the chance of future heart attack, stroke, or other blood-vessel problems. You may be a good fit if you have prediabetes plus existing cardiovascular disease or significant blood-vessel disease.

What taking part in a atherosclerosis 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 atherosclerosis clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting atherosclerosis 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 atherosclerosis 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 atherosclerosis 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 atherosclerosis 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.
