Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06069154Enrolling by invitation
Freezing nerves for rib fracture pain
This study tests a procedure called cryoneurolysis, which uses cold to temporarily freeze nerves near broken ribs to relieve pain. It is for adults who have 1 to 6 recently broken ribs with at least moderate pain and are already getting a nerve block injection.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06065449RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two radiation therapies for painful bone metastases
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy to relieve pain from cancer that has spread to the bones. It aims to see whether a more targeted, high-dose approach (SBRT) works better than standard palliative radiation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05991453Recruiting
Recovery after IV vs. inhaled anesthesia for non-cardiac surgery
This trial compares recovery after two types of general anesthesia: one given through an IV (propofol) and one inhaled as a gas. It aims to see which approach leads to a smoother recovery for people having non-cardiac surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05658575RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Tablets to treat sudden gout flare pain
This trial studies dapansutrile tablets (OLT1177) to see how well they work for people in the first 4 days of an acute gout flare. It may help reduce pain and inflammation in the specific joint where your gout is flaring.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05555485Recruiting
Check if ear stimulation can help chronic pain and reduce opioids
This study tests whether a device that stimulates the ear (through the skin) can reduce chronic pain and help people lower their opioid pain medicine. It may help you manage pain with less opioid use if you meet their safety and medication criteria.
Galveston, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT05110989Recruiting
Registry study of pain relief after freezing intercostal nerves
This study collects real-world information about how well freezing (cryoablation) of the intercostal nerves helps with pain after a procedure. It may help doctors understand outcomes and improve care for future patients.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT03876054Recruiting
Tracking outcomes after Abbott neurostimulator implantation
This study follows people long-term after they get an Abbott device implanted to help with chronic pain. It aims to learn how well the therapy works in real-world care over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04693377Recruiting
Freezing tumor treatment plus targeted radiation for painful bone spread
This study tests whether combining a “freezing” procedure (cryoablation) with focused external radiation (SBRT) can reduce pain from bone metastases. It’s for people with certain cancers that have spread to bone and are having significant pain in a specific bone spot.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04278404Recruiting
Drug safety study for children already on certain medicines
This study measures how certain medicines move through the body and checks their safety in children. It may help doctors better understand dosing and side effects in kids who are already receiving these treatments, or in some kids who recently tested positive for COVID-19.
Dallas, TexasAges birth–20 years - NCT04028687Recruiting
Study of a hip stem used in select adult hip replacements
This trial follows people who have had a hip replacement using a specific “Taperloc Complete” stem. It is meant to monitor outcomes after surgery and see how well the stem performs over time for certain non-infectious hip problems.
Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03511846Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Pain biomarker study for headache or back nerve pain
This study looks at measurable “pain signals” (biomarkers) in people with certain headache disorders or lumbar nerve pain, and compares them with healthy people. It may help researchers better understand what drives pain and how it can be detected.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01550575Recruiting
Study of outcomes in people treated with Boston Scientific devices
This study looks back at what happened to patients after treatment (or if they could have used) Boston Scientific medical devices. It may help improve how these devices are used and understand real-world results.

What taking part in a pain 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 pain clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 108 recruiting pain 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 pain 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 pain 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 pain 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.
