This trial tests sacituzumab govitecan, an anti-cancer drug, for people with urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer that has spread or can’t be removed with surgery. It’s designed for tumors that have been treated already in specific ways, to see if the medicine can shrink or control the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06594991RecruitingPhase 2
A study of three immunotherapy drugs for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a combination of three immunotherapy drugs (fianlimab, cemiplimab, and ipilimumab) for people with advanced melanoma that has stopped responding to previous PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. It aims to see if this new combination can help shrink or control the cancer.

Inavolisib plus hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy, inavolisib, combined with standard hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor for people with a specific genetic mutation (PIK3CA) in their hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has not been treated before. It compares this combination to a placebo plus the same standard treatments.

Comparing two drugs for first-line treatment of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Rilvegostomig against the standard drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has high levels of PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see which drug works better as a first treatment before any other cancer therapy.

Testing BNT116 for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental immunotherapy called BNT116, given alone or with other drugs, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can help shrink tumors.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07227298RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of new drug combo for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a new combination of cancer drugs (PF-08634404 with other anticancer agents) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have not yet received any treatment for their advanced disease. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Garland, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05253651RecruitingPhase 3
Tucatinib plus trastuzumab with chemo for HER2+ metastatic colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding tucatinib and trastuzumab to standard chemotherapy works better than standard treatment alone for people with HER2-positive metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It aims to improve how long people live and how well tumors respond as first treatment for advanced disease.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03016819RecruitingPhase 3
Test drugs anlotinib and catequentinib for advanced sarcoma
This Phase 3 study tests two anti-cancer medicines (anlotinib and catequentinib) for people with certain advanced soft-tissue sarcomas, including alveolar soft part sarcoma, synovial sarcoma, and leiomyosarcoma. It is designed for tumors that cannot be removed and that have either grown despite treatment or no longer respond to standard options.

Tucatinib plus Doxil for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests tucatinib (a HER2-targeted pill) plus Doxil (a chemotherapy medicine) to slow or shrink HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has been treated before. It may help by targeting HER2 cancer cells more effectively than past treatments alone.

What taking part in a locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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 locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 525 recruiting locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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 locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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 locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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.
