Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06216301RecruitingPhase 3
Electric fields with immunotherapy and chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests adding a device that delivers electric fields (Tumor Treating Fields) to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated before. It may help slow tumor growth.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05789082RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Divarasib for untreated lung cancer with KRAS G12C
This trial studies divarasib to see if it is safe and can shrink or control advanced lung cancer. Participants must have a KRAS G12C mutation and have not had prior treatment for their advanced disease.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib, which may slow or shrink various types of advanced cancer. It is given together with other cancer treatments, and the study is looking at many different cancers including kidney, prostate, bladder, lung, liver, and more.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06524544RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan) against standard treatment for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It's for people who have already tried an immunotherapy drug like pembrolizumab and another drug called enfortumab vedotin.
Baytown, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05111561RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a two-drug combo for RAS-mutant or triple negative breast cancer
This study tests a combination of two new drugs, ZEN003694 and binimetinib, for people with advanced solid tumors that have certain gene changes (like RAS mutations) or triple negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04777994RecruitingPhase 1
Drug ABBV-CLS-484 for advanced cancers that lack options
This Phase 1 trial tests ABBV-CLS-484 in people with advanced or metastatic tumors when standard treatments have not worked or aren’t available. Because it’s an early study, the main goal is to find a safe dose and see how the cancer responds in different cancer types.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06926868RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of a new drug versus chemotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new investigational drug called izalontamab brengitecan against standard chemotherapy for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who cannot receive immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the new drug works better at shrinking or slowing the cancer.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06662786RecruitingPhase 3
Amivantamab plus chemo vs. standard chemo for left-sided colorectal cancer
This trial compares a new combination (amivantamab plus chemotherapy) with the standard treatment (cetuximab plus chemotherapy) as the first therapy for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread. The goal is to see which approach works better when the tumor has no mutations in the KRAS, NRAS, or BRAF genes.
Abilene, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07225946RecruitingPhase 3
Study of pasritamig with docetaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called pasritamig combined with the chemotherapy docetaxel, compared to docetaxel alone, in men with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone therapy.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06244771RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing FMC-376 for KRAS G12C mutated solid tumors
This study tests a new targeted pill called FMC-376 for people whose cancer has a specific KRAS G12C mutation. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth when other treatments have stopped working.
Kingwood, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05054296RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise and Fitbit monitoring to lower heart risk in prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a structured exercise and lifestyle program, tracked with a Fitbit, can reduce cardiovascular (heart) risk in men with prostate cancer on hormone therapy. It also checks whether this is safe and feasible while monitoring symptoms and fitness changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06545331RecruitingPhase 1
A study of XB010 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called XB010 for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if XB010 is safe and effective for several cancer types, including lung, breast, head and neck, and esophageal cancers.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06686771RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation for limited growth in advanced lung cancer on immunotherapy
This trial tests whether giving high-precision radiation to a few spots that are growing during immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) can help people with advanced lung cancer. It aims to see if treating these limited areas of resistance can extend the time the cancer stays under control.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05168566RecruitingPhase 2
Sutetinib for lung cancer with a specific EGFR change
This Phase 2 study tests sutetinib capsules in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) non-small cell lung cancer. It’s for tumors that have a specific, uncommon EGFR mutation, and aims to see how well the drug can control the cancer with limited prior chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06350097RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib with or without datopotamab deruxtecan for first-line EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (osimertinib plus datopotamab deruxtecan) against osimertinib alone in patients with a specific type of lung cancer called EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. It is for people with advanced or recurrent disease who have not yet received systemic treatment.

Test drug T-DXd plus immunotherapy, with or without chemotherapy for HER2+ lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests the safety (and early effectiveness) of T-DXd combined with immunotherapy, sometimes also with chemotherapy, in people with advanced lung cancer that is HER2-positive. It may help if standard options have been limited or your tumor does not have certain genetic changes that already have targeted treatments.

What taking part in a metastatic cancer 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 metastatic cancer clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 352 recruiting metastatic cancer 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 metastatic cancer 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 metastatic cancer 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?
