Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07033026RecruitingPhase 2
Study of NGM120 for weight loss in colorectal cancer
This study tests an experimental drug called NGM120 for people with colorectal cancer who are losing weight (a condition called cancer cachexia). It is a placebo-controlled trial, meaning some participants will receive the drug and some will receive a placebo, to see if the drug helps stop or reverse this weight loss.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07042685RecruitingPhase 2
5-FU and Fruquintinib for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (5-FU and fruquintinib) in people with advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It is for those who have not had chemotherapy before.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07085091RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ALX2004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ALX2004, for people with certain advanced cancers (head and neck, lung, esophagus, or colorectal) that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.

Study of BMS-986523 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS changes
This trial tests an experimental drug (BMS-986523) alone or with other cancer treatments for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the KRAS gene. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07235293RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (DSP107 and atezolizumab) compared to another drug (fruquintinib) for people with advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments. The goal is to find a more effective treatment option.
Texas City, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02600949Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Peptide vaccine study for advanced pancreatic or colon cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized vaccine made from a patient’s tumor to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer. It is for people with advanced pancreatic or colorectal cancer (often after surgery or while metastatic) and aims to see if the approach is safe and can help immune control of the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07411599RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-NK cell therapy plus cetuximab for belly-spread colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new cell therapy (CAR-NK cells given directly into your belly and a vein) combined with a targeted drug (cetuximab) for colorectal cancer that has spread mainly to the lining of your belly. It aims to see if this treatment can shrink tumors and help people who have run out of standard chemotherapy options.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07500298RecruitingPhase 1
New drug plus standard chemo for spread colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SAR445877 combined with two standard chemotherapies (FOLFOX and bevacizumab) as an initial treatment for people whose colorectal cancer has spread and is microsatellite stable (MSS). It aims to see if adding this drug works better than standard therapy alone.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02863172Recruiting
Genetic studies in families with inherited colon cancer
This study looks at genetic reasons some families get colon cancer due to inherited (run-in-the-family) syndromes. It may help doctors better understand risk and tailor care for you or your relatives.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06445062RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of new RAS inhibitors for GI solid tumors
This trial tests new drugs that target specific RAS mutations in advanced gastrointestinal cancers, like pancreatic or colorectal cancer. It aims to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06462183RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RGT-61159 for Advanced ACC or CRC
This trial tests a new drug called RGT-61159 for adults with adenoid cystic carcinoma or colorectal cancer that has returned or stopped responding to treatment. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective in shrinking tumors.
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.

Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06937177RecruitingPhase 2
Testing mifomelatide to help maintain weight during chemo
This trial tests an investigational drug called mifomelatide (TCMCB07) to see if it can help people with newly diagnosed colorectal or pancreatic cancer maintain a healthy weight while receiving certain types of chemotherapy. You would give yourself a daily injection under the skin.
Kingwood, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05379595RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Amivantamab for advanced colon or rectal cancer with specific tumor traits
This Phase 1/2 study tests amivantamab alone or combined with standard chemotherapy to treat advanced or metastatic colon or rectal cancer. You may be able to join if your tumor has the right genetic profile (typically “wild-type” for certain genes and no HER2 amplification) and your cancer has measurable or biopsy-able lesions.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04657068RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ART0380 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called ART0380 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments.

San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06617858RecruitingPhase 2
AMB-05X for colorectal cancer with ctDNA after treatment
This trial tests a drug called AMB-05X for people with colorectal cancer who have completed all intended treatments and show no signs of cancer on scans, but still have cancer DNA (ctDNA) in their blood. The goal is to see if AMB-05X can eliminate this remaining cancer DNA and prevent the cancer from coming back.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04792684Recruiting
Collecting colon samples from adults with colon findings

KQB365 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS mutations
This trial tests a new drug called KQB365, alone or with other drugs, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation (G12C or G12S). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07221357RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Pumitamig plus chemo vs standard care for new colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Pumitamig combined with chemotherapy against standard bevacizumab plus chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed and hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see which combination works better and is safer.

What taking part in a colorectal cancer (crc) 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 colorectal cancer (crc) clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 66 recruiting colorectal cancer (crc) 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 colorectal cancer (crc) 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 colorectal cancer (crc) 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.
