Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT03830151RecruitingPhase 1
C-13 pyruvate MRI to help diagnose brain gliomas
This early-phase study tests a special MRI scan using C-13 pyruvate to help identify and understand gliomas (a type of brain tumor) in people with brain tumors going to surgery or biopsy. It may help doctors see tumor signals better before or around the time of your procedure.
Houston, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT03604315RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan testing a new radioactive tracer for tumors
This early-phase study uses PET/CT scans to see how well a new radioactive tracer (a tiny dose of a special material) highlights solid tumors in the body. It may help researchers learn whether this tracer can better find and track tumor spots seen on standard scans.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03655015Recruiting
Using patient tumor cells to test lung cancer treatment response
This study looks at lung cancer samples you provide to see how tumor cells respond to treatment. It may help researchers find better ways to choose treatments for lung cancer by testing response in a lab model.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03589729RecruitingPhase 2
Dexrazoxane to help protect the heart during blood-cancer chemo
This Phase 2 study tests dexrazoxane, a heart-protecting medicine, to reduce heart side effects from chemotherapy in people with certain blood cancers. If you qualify, you would receive dexrazoxane along with chemotherapy, and the team will monitor your heart function closely.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT03391778Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Long-term follow-up for cell therapy participants
This study checks how people do over time after receiving an “adoptive cell therapy” treatment. It helps researchers understand long-term safety and outcomes after prior participation in related studies.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT03435796RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Follow-up for people treated with gene-modified T cells
This study is a long-term check-in for people who previously received gene-modified T-cell infusions in a related Celgene/Juno/BMS trial. It helps researchers track safety and long-term effects over time.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT03425526RecruitingPhase 1
Donor T-cell treatment for adenovirus illness in immune-weakened people
This early-phase study tests donor immune cells (T cells) to treat people who have adenovirus infection or adenovirus-related disease but have a weakened immune system. It may help your body fight the virus, especially in cases where other treatments may not be enough.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT03465774Recruiting
Doxycycline added to a chest drain for cancer fluid buildup
This trial studies whether adding an antibiotic called doxycycline to an indwelling chest drain improves symptoms and fluid control in people with cancer-related fluid around the lungs. It’s mainly for patients who are getting this drain placed and can complete brief symptom check-in questions.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03114462RecruitingPhase 1
Study of focused radiation for laryngeal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a precise type of radiation treatment for people with certain stages of laryngeal (voice box) squamous cell cancer. The goal is to see how safe the treatment is and how well it may work in shrinking or controlling the cancer while aiming to preserve the larynx.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02984761Recruiting
Surgery vs focused radiation for early lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to treat early-stage lung cancer: surgery or a precise type of radiation called stereotactic radiotherapy. It aims to find out which approach works best for people whose cancer is small and has not spread.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT03010150Recruiting
Blood tests and swallowing exercise check-ins for head and neck cancer
This study looks at whether giving swallowing exercises and checking in with questionnaires can help people with metastatic (spreading to neck lymph nodes) head and neck cancers do the exercises correctly. It also uses blood tests to better understand adherence and progress over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02479698RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cells for BK or JC virus infections
This trial tests a treatment using special immune cells (called cytotoxic T lymphocytes) to fight BK or JC virus infections in people with weakened immune systems, such as cancer patients or organ transplant recipients. It may help control the virus and reduce related complications.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - 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.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT01255748Recruiting
Registry study tracking outcomes after radiation treatment
This registry study collects information from people who are planning to receive radiation therapy. The goal is to better understand treatment outcomes and help improve radiation care over time.
Irving, TexasAges Any age - NCT00843375Recruiting
Testing stool samples to find early colon cancer and polyps
This study checks stool samples to see how well stool tests can detect early colon cancer and precancerous growths called adenomas. If you qualify, you’ll collect stool samples for a lab test (FIT) and sometimes this helps sort who should get follow-up testing.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00505245Recruiting
Testing a new way to measure cancer symptom distress
This study tests a new assessment system (a set of questions/tools) to better measure how much distress cancer patients feel from symptoms. It may help cancer teams better understand your symptom burden and improve support.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00488878Recruiting
Collecting information for certain low-grade ovarian or peritoneal tumors
This study collects health information from people whose ovarian or peritoneal cancer started as a low-grade type but later changed to a higher-grade cancer. It may help researchers better understand how these tumors progress and what to expect over time.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT01269190Recruiting
Imaging mouth lesions during surgery to see them more clearly
This study uses a special dye and camera imaging while you have surgery or a biopsy to remove a mouth lesion. The goal is to better visualize the lesion during the operation, which may help doctors guide care more accurately.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00477100Recruiting
Breast cancer tissue and data registry for research
This trial helps create a research “tissue registry” by collecting breast cancer tissue samples and medical information. It may help doctors better understand inflammatory or invasive breast cancer and improve future studies.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00756665Recruiting
Study of careful monitoring for prostate cancer
This study follows people with early-stage prostate cancer who choose active surveillance instead of immediate treatment. It aims to see how monitoring with repeat prostate biopsies and follow-up works over time.

What taking part in a neoplasms 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.
