Study drug for TP53 Y220C-mutated advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests PC14586 (rezatapopt) in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that carry a specific TP53 mutation called Y220C. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment may work, sometimes combined with pembrolizumab.
Austin, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT04693377Recruiting
Freezing tumor treatment plus targeted radiation for painful bone spread
This study tests whether combining a “freezing” procedure (cryoablation) with focused external radiation (SBRT) can reduce pain from bone metastases. It’s for people with certain cancers that have spread to bone and are having significant pain in a specific bone spot.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04739072Recruiting
Check colorectal cancer blood tests after curative treatment
This study measures “minimal residual disease,” meaning tiny amounts of cancer that may remain after surgery, using blood samples. It may help doctors better detect who is at higher risk of cancer coming back and guide follow-up care.

What taking part in a colorectal 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 colorectal cancer clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 144 recruiting colorectal 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 colorectal 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 colorectal 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 colorectal 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.
