Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT05379985RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug RMC-6236 for certain RAS mutations in advanced cancers
This trial tests whether RMC-6236 can treat advanced solid tumors that have specific RAS-related gene changes (especially certain KRAS G12 mutations). You may be able to join if your tumor’s DNA test shows the right mutation and your overall health is good enough for study visits.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06040541RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-9805 for KRAS G12D solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill (RMC-9805) for people with solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. It's for those who have already tried other treatments and need new options.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06620627Recruiting
Blood test for early cancer detection before colonoscopy
This study is testing a new blood test that might help find cancer early. If you are 40 or older and planning a routine screening colonoscopy, you may be able to join. You will give a blood sample before the colonoscopy, and the researchers will see if the test can detect signs of cancer.
Austin, TexasAges 40 years+ - NCT07503808RecruitingPhase 1
IDE034 for advanced solid tumors with B7-H3 or PTK7
This study tests a new drug called IDE034 for people with advanced solid tumors that have certain markers (B7-H3 and PTK7). The drug may help by targeting these markers on cancer cells, and the study checks if it is safe and effective.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05826743Recruiting
Check a new alternative to ileostomy after bowel surgery
This trial tests whether a device called COLO-BT can be a safer, effective alternative to an ileostomy (a temporary or longer-term opening from the intestine to the skin). It’s for certain adults having a bowel connection low in the pelvis, where leak risk matters.
Houston, TexasAges 19–80 - NCT07397338RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RAS inhibitors with ivonescimab for solid tumors
This trial tests new drugs called RAS(ON) inhibitors combined with ivonescimab for people with solid tumors that have a RAS mutation. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07276529Recruiting
Magnet procedure safety trial for colon surgery patients
This trial tests a new magnet device to connect sections of the colon after surgery. It may be an option for people who need part of their colon removed and are otherwise in good health.
Houston, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT07262619RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of EIK1005 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called EIK1005, either alone or combined with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced solid tumors, especially those with MSI-H or dMMR cancers (tumors that have trouble repairing their DNA). The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05863195RecruitingPhase 3
Pump chemotherapy plus standard chemo for liver-only colorectal spread
This study tests adding a chemotherapy “pump” directly into the liver along with standard chemotherapy, compared with standard chemotherapy alone. It’s for adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed, and who are responding to first chemotherapy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04895709RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new cancer drug for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial tests how well a new drug (BMS-986340) works alone and combined with other treatments in people with advanced solid tumors that have progressed despite standard care. It also studies tumor samples to look for biomarkers that may predict who benefits.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07094204RecruitingPhase 1
A study of ASP5834 for adults with solid tumors and KRAS mutations
This trial is testing a new drug called ASP5834 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the KRAS gene. The study will find the best dose and see if it helps shrink tumors.
Irving, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05411718RecruitingPhase 2
Aspirin or naproxen to prevent cancer in Lynch syndrome
This trial tests whether daily aspirin or naproxen can “intercept” (stop) cancer from starting or coming back in people with Lynch syndrome who are currently cancer-free. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the two drugs, and neither the participant nor the team knows which one you’re taking.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06218914RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for KRAS G12D cancers
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (called TCR-T) that targets a specific genetic change (KRAS G12D) in advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It may be an option if your cancer has this mutation and you have a specific tissue type (HLA).
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06750094RecruitingPhase 3
Study of amivantamab plus FOLFIRI in colorectal cancer
This trial tests adding amivantamab to standard FOLFIRI chemotherapy for people with certain types of colorectal cancer that have already been treated once. It aims to see if this combination works better than another common treatment (cetuximab or bevacizumab plus FOLFIRI).
Abilene, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07020117RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AKY-1189 for advanced solid tumors

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 146 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?
