Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT07626411RecruitingPhase 3
Blood Thinner Study for Irregular Heartbeat
This study tests a new blood thinner to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem). You may qualify if you have atrial fibrillation and at least one risk factor for stroke, or if you've never taken a blood thinner before.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07575269Recruiting
New ablation treatment for irregular heartbeat
This trial tests a new tool called FARAFLEX that uses pulsed electrical energy to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). The goal is to see if this method can safely stop AF symptoms in people whose medications haven't worked.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07523750Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
This study tests two types of pulsed field ablation catheters to treat persistent atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm problem lasting more than 7 days but less than a year. The goal is to see if these catheters can safely and effectively restore a normal heart rhythm.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT07298473Recruiting
Redo ablation for recurrent atrial fibrillation with Sphere-9 catheter
This trial tests a new catheter and system for people who have had one previous ablation for atrial fibrillation but still have symptoms. It aims to see if a repeat procedure can safely and effectively treat recurrent episodes.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06784466Recruiting
New ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation
This study is testing a new type of ablation procedure for atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). It uses special energy to create scar tissue in the heart to block faulty electrical signals. If you have AF that isn’t controlled by medication, you may qualify.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT04088071Recruiting
Ablation for heart rhythm problems using a specific technology
This study looks at how well catheter ablation works for treating certain heart rhythm disorders (like atrial fibrillation or ventricular arrhythmias) using a specific brand of catheters. The aim is to gather real-world data to better understand the procedure's outcomes.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04045665RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner vs usual care for new heart rhythm after bypass surgery
This trial tests whether using a blood thinner in people with new, temporary atrial fibrillation after CABG (heart bypass surgery) can reduce harmful outcomes compared with standard treatment. It may help prevent stroke or other complications if your rhythm problem fits the trial’s timing and risk profile.
Plano, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07436299Recruiting
New ultrasound method for heart pressure in atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new way to use ultrasound (echocardiogram) to measure heart pressure in people who have both heart failure and atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat). Participants will have an ultrasound and a heart catheterization to see if the new ultrasound method can accurately detect elevated pressures.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07227532Recruiting
Testing a new catheter for atrial fibrillation treatment
This study tests a new catheter system, called Varipulse, to see if it's safe and effective for treating atrial fibrillation (AF), a heart rhythm problem. People with short-lasting AF who haven't been helped by medication may be able to join.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 22 years+ - NCT06099730Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new method called pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It aims to safely stop AF episodes by targeting specific areas in the heart, and may help people with paroxysmal (coming and going) or persistent AF who haven't had this procedure before.
Austin, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT07175428RecruitingPhase 2
Safety of a New Blood Thinner in AFib Patients
This study tests the safety of a new blood thinner for people with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who need long-term stroke prevention. If you qualify, the study will compare this medication to standard anticoagulation therapy.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07430956RecruitingPhase 3
Stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation without standard blood thinners
This trial tests a new medication to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who cannot safely take standard blood thinners. The drug works by blocking a different clotting factor, which may lower bleeding risks.
Amarillo, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07840365RecruitingPhase 3
Finding the best blood-thinner plan after a Watchman device procedure
This study tests which blood-thinner approach works best after a procedure to close a small heart pouch (left atrial appendage) with a Watchman device. It aims to prevent strokes while reducing bleeding risks.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05963698Recruiting
Closing off a heart pouch to prevent stroke
This study tests a procedure that seals off the left atrial appendage (a small heart pouch) to help prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation. You may be considered if your stroke risk is high and you are already on blood-thinner medicine.
The Woodlands, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06578104Recruiting
Pulsed AF Study: PulseSelect Catheter for Afib
This study tests a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (Afib) using a special catheter system called PulseSelect that delivers short bursts of energy to create scar tissue in the heart. It is for people whose Afib comes and goes or stays for a while but not more than a year, and who have not had a prior ablation procedure or have a pacemaker or defibrillator.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05510167Recruiting
How quitting alcohol affects heart rhythm after ablation
This study looks at whether stopping alcohol after a heart procedure called catheter ablation helps prevent irregular heartbeats from coming back and improves your thinking and quality of life.
Austin, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT03907046RecruitingPhase 3
Blood thinner study to prevent stroke after brain bleed
This Phase 3 study tests whether a blood thinner (apixaban) can help prevent another stroke and support recovery after you’ve had a brain bleed. You would be assigned to a treatment group, and the study checks safety and whether strokes can be reduced without causing dangerous bleeding.

What taking part in a persistent atrial fibrillation 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 persistent atrial fibrillation clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 17 recruiting persistent atrial fibrillation 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 persistent atrial fibrillation 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 persistent atrial fibrillation 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 persistent atrial fibrillation 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.
