Heart failure clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 84 recruiting heart failure studies with a site in Texas — including Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 4 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06641362Recruiting
Ultra-high frequency ECG for heart timing problems
This study tests a new, more detailed type of ECG (called UHF-ECG) to see if it can better detect uneven electrical timing in the heart. If you are getting your first pacemaker for a slow heart rate or heart failure, this study may help doctors personalize your treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06655376RecruitingPhase 4
Aspirin study for advanced heart failure with a heart pump
This trial tests if taking aspirin along with a standard blood thinner helps people with a HeartMate3 heart pump have fewer bleeding or clotting problems. It is for people who have had their pump for at least 3 months.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06793371RecruitingPhase 2
Study of CK-4021586 for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
This trial tests an investigational drug called CK-4021586 for people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It aims to see if the drug is safe and well-tolerated. You may qualify if you are 40 to 85, have heart failure symptoms, and have a heart that pumps well but shows signs of strain.
Dallas, TexasAges 40–85 - NCT07096544Recruiting
Using a lung artery sensor to guide LVAD care
This study tests whether a small sensor (CardioMEMS) implanted in the lung artery can help doctors better manage LVAD settings and reduce hospital visits. It is for people who already have a HeartMate 3 heart pump and are stable enough to go home.
Plano, TexasAges 21–85 - NCT07112924Recruiting
CCM Heart Device Registry Study
This registry study follows patients who have or will get a CCM device to see how well it works and how safe it is over time. It helps doctors learn more about improving heart function in people with heart failure.
El Paso, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07223242RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Tailored exercise training for heart failure with preserved pumping strength
This trial tests a personalized exercise program to help people with a type of heart failure called HFpEF. You may qualify if your heart still pumps well but you have trouble being active, and you are willing to use a phone app and exercise regularly.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06965621RecruitingPhase 2
Heart Nerve Imaging in Heart Failure with ICD
This study uses a special imaging agent (18F-mFBG) to take pictures of the nerves in your heart. It aims to better understand heart function in people with heart failure and an ICD.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.
Fort Worth, TexasAges Any age - NCT06930495Enrolling by invitation
Weight loss and heart failure with normal pumping strength
This study tests whether weight loss treatments can improve muscle and blood vessel function in people with a specific type of heart failure (HFpEF) who also have obesity. It may help if you have heart failure with a normal ejection fraction and a high BMI.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05604430Enrolling by invitation
Study of pre-hospital breathing support with a specific ventilator
This study looks at breathing support given outside the hospital using a particular ZOLL ventilator model and software version. If you were treated with the right equipment, the team will use the ventilator’s recorded data to evaluate how ventilation was delivered.
Fort Worth, TexasAges Any age - NCT06532890Recruiting
Using microRNAs to personalize heart transplant medicines in children
This study is looking at heart transplant children (up to age 18) to see if measuring tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood can help doctors personalize anti-rejection medicines. It aims to improve how we prevent rejection while reducing side effects.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 18 years - NCT06939751Recruiting
Testing microRNA levels to personalize heart transplant care
This trial is studying whether a blood test that measures small molecules called microRNAs can help doctors personalize the medicines used to prevent rejection after a heart transplant. If you qualify, you would help researchers learn how to better match immunosuppression to each patient's needs.

What taking part in a heart failure 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 heart failure clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 84 recruiting heart failure 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 heart failure 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 heart failure 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 heart failure 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.
