Giving surfactant to preterm babies through a mask or thin tube
This trial compares two ways of giving surfactant (a liquid that helps babies' lungs open) to premature babies who need extra oxygen. One way uses a laryngeal mask airway and the other uses a thin catheter. Both are less invasive than a breathing tube, which may help babies recover faster.

This study tests an experimental medicine given by IV infusion to see if it is safe and helps reduce symptoms of lupus, sjogren's disease, or rheumatoid arthritis. It is an early-phase trial, so the main goals are checking side effects and how the drug behaves in the body, but it will also look at how well it works.
Harlingen, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06938217Enrolling by invitation

This study tests whether a gentler, low-blood-flow version of ECMO (a machine that helps oxygenate blood outside the body) is safe and effective for adults with very severe breathing failure. It is for patients who are already on a breathing machine and have very low oxygen levels despite that support.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT02852031Recruiting

What taking part in a down syndrome 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.
Down Syndrome trials in other states
Common questions
- Are there down syndrome clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 216 recruiting down syndrome 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 down syndrome 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 down syndrome 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 down syndrome 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.
