Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06082453Recruiting
Modernizing syphilis testing in pregnancy and beyond
This study is testing a new, faster way to check for syphilis in pregnant people, new mothers, and their newborns, as well as in men and non-pregnant people at a Harris Health clinic. The goal is to make sure more people get the right treatment quickly.

Giving antibiotic through bone vs. vein during ankle replacement
This study tests whether giving the antibiotic vancomycin through a small needle in the bone instead of a vein is safe and works well during total ankle replacement surgery. It may help you if you are having this surgery and want to prevent infection in a new way.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06388109Recruiting
Positive Peers App: Support for HIV Care
This trial tests a smartphone app called Positive Peers to help people with HIV stay healthy and connected. It's for those who are newly diagnosed, not fully in care, or not virally suppressed.
Houston, TexasAges 13–34 - NCT06399302Recruiting
Improving outcomes for lung transplant patients
This study looks at ways to improve outcomes for people who are waiting for or have recently received a lung transplant. It aims to find better management strategies for both donors and recipients.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06402318Recruiting
Quick breath test for COVID, flu, and RSV
This study tests a breathalyzer device that quickly detects COVID-19, flu, and RSV from your breath. If you are already being tested for these viruses, you may join to see if this new method works as well as the usual swab test.
Fort Sam Houston, TexasAges 18–89 - NCT06598475Recruiting
Improving HPV vaccination in Latino teens at health centers
This trial tests a program to help community health centers recommend and boost HPV vaccination rates among Latino adolescents aged 11-12. It aims to support health care providers and staff with education and resources.
Houston, TexasAges 11–17 - NCT06659952Recruiting
HIV+ donor hearts for HIV+ recipients
This trial tests whether hearts from donors who had HIV can be safely transplanted into people with HIV who need a heart transplant. It may offer a new option for those on the waiting list.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07281430Recruiting
HPV self-test for cervical cancer screening
This study tests if a self-collected sample for HPV testing works as well as standard colposcopy to prevent cervical cancer. If you've recently had an abnormal cervical cancer screening and need a colposcopy, this trial may be an option for you.
Houston, TexasAges 25 years+ - NCT06724640RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of an experimental HIV prevention drug in healthy adults
This study tests a new injectable drug (VH4011499) for safety and how the body processes it. It's for healthy adults without HIV, and participants will get either the study drug or a placebo (an inactive shot).
Austin, TexasAges 18–55 - NCT06907199RecruitingPhase 1
Antibiotic vs. bladder treatment plus antibiotic for recurrent UTIs
This study compares taking a daily antibiotic (nitrofurantoin) alone versus having a procedure that cauterizes bladder areas (fulguration) plus the same daily antibiotic, to see which is better at preventing recurrent urinary tract infections in women.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT06938867RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SNIPR001 for resistant gut bacteria before stem cell transplant
This study tests an experimental oral medicine called SNIPR001. It is designed to reduce resistant E. coli bacteria in the gut before your stem cell transplant, possibly lowering the risk of infection.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06999603RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled study drug for virus infections on ventilators
This study tests an inhaled study drug (SNG001) for adults on a breathing machine in the ICU due to a viral lung infection. The goal is to see if the drug can help patients recover faster.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07221097Recruiting
Testing a new panel to detect COVID-19 and other coronaviruses
This trial uses leftover nasal swab samples to test a new panel that can detect COVID-19 and other coronaviruses. It helps see if the panel works well for diagnosing these infections.
Galveston, TexasAges Any age - NCT07300267RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new pneumococcal vaccine for infants and toddlers
This trial tests a new vaccine called V118C to protect children against pneumococcal disease. It is for two age groups: toddlers aged 12-15 months who already had 3 doses of a standard pneumococcal vaccine, and babies about 2 months old who have not had any pneumococcal vaccine yet.
Garland, TexasAges 2 months–1.3 years - NCT01492036Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for people who received gene therapy
This study follows people for many years after they receive gene therapy (a treatment that uses lab-made genetic material). It mainly checks long-term safety and health outcomes and may help doctors understand how gene therapy works over time.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT07048899Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Irrisept for emergency surgery patients
This trial tests if using Irrisept (a special wound-cleaning solution) during emergency surgery can help prevent infections. It includes adults who need an open surgery for an urgent stomach or bowel problem.
Tyler, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05686837Enrolling by invitation
Study of how lung bacteria spreads in people with cystic fibrosis
This trial follows people with cystic fibrosis to better understand how “nontuberculous mycobacteria” (a type of lung germ) spreads between healthcare visits and care settings. It may help improve future prevention and monitoring strategies for CF patients who have had these bacteria.

What taking part in a infections 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 infections clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 113 recruiting infections 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 infections 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 infections 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 infections 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.
