San Antonio, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06108076RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Oral ketones for heart failure and diabetes
This study tests whether taking a special oral ketone supplement can help people with both heart failure and diabetes. It looks at both short-term and long-term effects on heart function and blood sugar control.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT05838287RecruitingPhase 4
Pioglitazone for heart failure with preserved pumping in type 2 diabetes
This trial tests whether pioglitazone (a diabetes medicine) helps people who have type 2 diabetes and a specific type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally. It may improve heart failure symptoms and function in carefully selected patients.
San Antonio, TexasAges 30–70 - NCT05846802Recruiting
Gastroparesis and stomach symptoms registry for adults

El Paso, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05762107RecruitingPhase 2
Drug ZT-01 to reduce low blood sugar at night
This Phase 2 study tests ZT-01 to help prevent night-time low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in people with type 1 diabetes. It may help if you’ve had low blood sugar during sleep or are at high risk based on recent glucose monitoring.
Austin, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT05758545Recruiting
Device treatment for diabetic foot ulcers with poor blood flow

San Antonio, TexasAges Any age - NCT05390892RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing kidney and heart damage in type 2 diabetes

What taking part in a diabetes 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 diabetes clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 154 recruiting diabetes 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 diabetes 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 diabetes 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 diabetes 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.
