Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT05871372Recruiting
Study brain circuits behind mood using brain monitoring
This study looks at how brain networks relate to mood and depression by recording brain activity during specific procedures. You may be able to join if you’re already having brain monitoring for epilepsy or are part of a depression deep brain stimulation program.
Houston, TexasAges 21–70 - NCT05981755Recruiting
Breathing rescue to prevent SUDEP in epilepsy
This trial tests a breathing rescue device to prevent SUDEP (sudden unexpected death in epilepsy) in people with hard-to-control focal epilepsy who are staying in the hospital for invasive brain monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06555965Recruiting
STXBP1 and SYNGAP1 natural history study
This study follows people with STXBP1 or SYNGAP1 gene changes over time to learn more about how these conditions affect the body and mind. It does not test a treatment but helps researchers understand the natural course of the disorder.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT06908356RecruitingPhase 2
Testing PRAX-628 for focal or tonic-clonic seizures
This study tests an experimental pill called PRAX-628 for adults whose seizures are not fully controlled by current medications. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective at reducing seizures.
Round Rock, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06934356Recruiting
Awareness and brain arousal study
This study looks at how your brain becomes aware of things—like sounds and images—by measuring pupil size and brain activity. Healthy people may have an MRI; epilepsy patients with special brain electrodes already implanted can also join a part of the study.
Houston, TexasAges 13 years+ - NCT06443463Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Long-term safety of BHV-7000 in epilepsy
This study checks the long-term safety of BHV-7000 for people who already completed an earlier trial with this drug. You keep taking the same medicine while doctors watch for any side effects over time.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06144957Enrolling by invitation
SLC13A5 deficiency natural history study (US only)
This study follows people with SLC13A5 deficiency (a rare genetic condition that affects brain development) to learn more about the disease over time. It collects health information, assessments, and samples to help understand the condition and plan future treatments.

What taking part in a epilepsy 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 epilepsy clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 31 recruiting epilepsy 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 epilepsy 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 epilepsy 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 epilepsy 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.
