Protein Metabolism clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 5 recruiting protein metabolism studies with a site in Texas, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06628349Recruiting
Protein Study for Older Adults with COPD
This study looks at how two types of protein drinks (one from plants, one from whey/dairy) affect muscle and metabolism in older adults who have COPD. You'll lie in a bed for several hours while researchers measure your body's response to the protein. The goal is to find which protein might better help maintain muscle strength.
College Station, TexasAges 50–95 - NCT06693544Enrolling by invitation
Peanut sip study for muscle health in older adults
This study looks at how older adults process a peanut-based protein drink. If you already took part in an earlier peanut sip study, you may be able to join this one and help us learn more about muscle health.
College Station, TexasAges 65–80 - NCT05400733Recruiting
Study of how your body handles meals in older adults
This study looks at your “meal response”—how your blood sugar and related body processes change after eating. It may help researchers understand different metabolic patterns and how to improve health or treatment strategies for older adults.
College Station, TexasAges 60–80 - NCT07254403Recruiting
Beef vs. plant protein for muscle health in older adults
This study compares how well beef protein and plant protein help build muscle in older adults who may be starting to feel weak or lose muscle. You'll eat test meals and have your muscle response measured using a safe, stable isotope technique.

Brain scans to study metabolism in healthy and diabetic people
This study uses MRI brain scans at different strengths to measure how the brain uses energy (metabolism) in health and in people with genetically confirmed G1D. It may help researchers understand brain energy changes related to metabolic disease and diabetes.

What taking part in a protein metabolism 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 protein metabolism clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting protein metabolism 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 protein metabolism 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 protein metabolism 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 protein metabolism 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.
