Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07480356RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new bladder cancer treatment (TARA-002) vs standard chemo
This trial compares a new medicine called TARA-002, given directly into the bladder, to the doctor's choice of standard chemotherapy. It is for people with a high-grade, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that has not been treated with BCG or has not had BCG recently.
Arlington, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07306559RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests different doses of a new drug (BI 3820768) in people with advanced solid tumors, specifically germ cell tumors, endometrial cancer, or ovarian cancer. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06317662RecruitingPhase 2
Adding venetoclax and blinatumomab to chemo for infant leukemia
This trial tests adding two newer medicines (venetoclax and blinatumomab) to standard chemotherapy for infants with a specific type of leukemia. The goal is to see if this combination helps more babies stay cancer-free.
Austin, TexasAges Up to 12 months - NCT07283705RecruitingPhase 2
Study of BMS-986504 for MTAP-deleted pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug, BMS-986504, in people with pancreatic cancer that has a specific genetic change called MTAP deletion. The study aims to see if this drug can help shrink or control the tumor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04423211RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-recovered prostate cancer treated with PET-guided radiation
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation guided by a PET scan (along with hormone therapy) can improve outcomes for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The PET scan helps doctors look for spots outside the usual radiation area so treatment can be tailored.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04893109RecruitingPhase 2
Study compares two HER2 breast cancer treatments after surgery
This Phase 2 study tests two different medicines given after breast surgery to reduce the risk of cancer coming back. It is only for people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer with limited or no lymph node spread.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07139990RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized radiotherapy for lung, brain, sarcoma, or head and neck cancers
This trial tests whether giving personalized radiotherapy alongside standard treatments can better control several types of cancer: small cell lung cancer, brain metastases, soft tissue sarcoma, and head and neck cancer. It aims to see if this approach helps patients live longer without their cancer growing or coming back.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07421700RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of PF-08634404 alone or with enfortumab vedotin for bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, PF-08634404, either by itself or together with another drug called enfortumab vedotin, for people with advanced bladder cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if these treatments can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07166094RecruitingPhase 3
Rina-S vs standard therapy for advanced endometrial cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Rina-S (an antibody-drug conjugate) against standard treatments for advanced endometrial cancer that has returned after prior therapy. It may be an option if you have had at least 1 but no more than 3 prior treatments, including platinum chemo and immunotherapy.

Study of PF-08634404 plus chemo for stomach and esophagus cancer
This trial tests a new study drug called PF-08634404 in combination with standard chemotherapy for people with stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophagus cancer that has spread. It aims to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Irving, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07763197Recruiting
Sample collection for bladder cancer research
This study is collecting blood, urine, and tissue samples from people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer to help develop better tests for tracking the disease. By participating, you might help improve future monitoring and treatment decisions.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05985655RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GTAEXS617 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called GTAEXS617 for adults with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07382583Recruiting
Study of a decision tool for endometrial cancer prevention
This study is developing a tool to help women decide if using a hormone-releasing intrauterine device (IUD) is right for them to lower their risk of endometrial cancer. Researchers are interviewing women at different risk levels and healthcare providers to make the tool useful and easy to understand.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05640999RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for early uterine cancer with POLE mutation after surgery
This Phase 2 trial studies an added (adjuvant) treatment for early-stage uterine cancer that has a specific genetic change called POLE mutation and does not have a p53 abnormal pattern. The goal is to lower the risk of the cancer coming back after surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06580314RecruitingPhase 3
Olaparib with or without bevacizumab for ovarian cancer
This trial tests whether taking the drug olaparib for one or two years, alone or with another drug called bevacizumab, can help keep ovarian cancer from coming back after initial chemotherapy and surgery. It is for people with certain genetic markers in their tumor.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04752722RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for bladder cancer that came back after BCG
This study tests a new gene therapy (EG-70) given directly into the bladder for people with a high-risk bladder cancer called NMIBC. It may be an option if BCG treatment stopped working, or if you cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07010315Recruiting
Educational tool for liver cancer prevention
This trial tests an educational tool designed to help people learn about preventing liver cancer. It is for adults who are patients at the HOPE Clinic and can use a smartphone or computer.

Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT06551116Recruiting
Better HER2 testing for HER2-low breast cancer on Enhertu
This study looks at using a more detailed lab test to measure HER2 levels in people with HER2-low metastatic breast cancer who are starting or have just started treatment with Enhertu. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors better understand who might benefit from Enhertu.

What taking part in a cancer 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 cancer clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 1,495 recruiting cancer 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 cancer 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 cancer 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 cancer 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.
Clin2 helps you find and understand clinical trials and does not provide medical advice. Study data comes from ClinicalTrials.gov. Talk with your doctor about whether a specific trial is right for you.
