Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07356154RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of revumenib and mezigdomide for leukemia
This trial tests two experimental drugs, revumenib and mezigdomide, for people with acute leukemia that has certain genetic changes (NPM1, KMT2A, or NUP98) and has come back or not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the leukemia.

Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06069570RecruitingPhase 1
Gamma delta T cells and low dose radiation for advanced lung or bone cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell called gamma delta T cells combined with low-dose radiation to treat people with advanced lung cancer or solid tumors that have spread to the bone.

Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07321652RecruitingPhase 3
Sonrotoclax plus zanubrutinib for untreated CLL or SLL
This trial tests whether adding a new drug, sonrotoclax, to the standard treatment zanubrutinib works better for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who haven't had treatment before. It's for patients aged 65 and older who need therapy due to symptoms or blood cell issues.
Abilene, TexasAges 65 years+ - NCT07316010RecruitingPhase 2
Liso-cel for lymphoma with minimal residual disease after first treatment
This trial tests a type of CAR T-cell therapy (called liso-cel) for people with large B-cell lymphoma who still have tiny traces of cancer after their first treatment. The goal is to see if liso-cel can get rid of those remaining cancer cells and prevent the cancer from coming back.

Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07291037RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new drug to standard chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called datopotamab deruxtecan against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer (non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer) that has already been treated. The new drug targets a protein called TROP2 found on cancer cells, which may help slow or stop the cancer's growth.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07287098RecruitingPhase 2
Imlunestrant for premenopausal women with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer
This trial tests a new hormone-blocking pill (imlunestrant) in premenopausal women with early-stage ER+/HER2- breast cancer. Depending on whether you've had prior hormone therapy, the study will see if this treatment works better than standard options.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07283731RecruitingPhase 2
Testing zanzalintinib plus pembrolizumab for certain sarcomas
This trial is looking at whether a new combination of two drugs, zanzalintinib and pembrolizumab, can help people with certain types of advanced soft-tissue sarcoma that have not responded to other treatments. It aims to find out if the combination is safe and effective.

NK cell therapy with two immune agents for returning lymphoma
This trial tests a new combination of specially grown immune cells (NK cells) plus two drugs that help them attack cancer. It's for people with a type of B-cell lymphoma that came back after at least two prior treatments or a stem cell transplant, and who have either failed or are not eligible for CAR-T cell therapy.

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 1,482 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.
