Seizures clinical trials in Texas
We’re tracking 16 recruiting seizures studies with a site in Texas — including Early Phase 1, Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT05121324RecruitingPhase 3
Tested higher-dose seizure medicine for children during EMS care
This trial studies the best dose of a seizure medicine for children who are actively seizing while emergency medical teams are treating them. It may help EMS crews give safer, more effective treatment during transport.
Houston, TexasAges 6 months–13 years - NCT07219407RecruitingPhase 2
Long-term safety study of RAP-219 for focal seizures
This study tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of RAP-219, an investigative medication for focal epilepsy. It is for people who already completed an earlier study of RAP-219, have a type of epilepsy that doesn't respond to standard medicines, and use a surgically implanted brain device (RNS system) to help manage seizures.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT05076617Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Testing a long-acting rescue seizure medicine for prolonged seizures
This Phase 3 study tests the safety and side effects of Staccato alprazolam for teens and adults (12+) who have certain types of long-lasting seizures. It may help people by offering a specific medicine option aimed at stopping prolonged seizure episodes under close medical study.
Austin, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT05077904RecruitingPhase 3
Staccato alprazolam study for prolonged seizures in teens and adults
This Phase 3 trial tests whether staccato alprazolam can reduce and manage “prolonged seizures” that happen repeatedly in people with epilepsy. It also checks safety—especially breathing and heart-related side effects—while participants continue their usual seizure medicines.
Austin, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT07594119RecruitingPhase 3
Testing RAP-219 to reduce seizures in focal epilepsy
This study tests a new medication called RAP-219 to see if it can reduce seizure frequency in adults with focal epilepsy (seizures starting in one area of the brain). You'll take the medication alongside your current seizure drugs and track your seizures daily using an app.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07287163Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term study of vormatrigine for epilepsy
This trial is for adults with epilepsy who have already taken vormatrigine in a previous study or through a special access program. It aims to collect ongoing safety and effectiveness information.
El Paso, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT04080778Recruiting
Magnetic seizure treatment for severe bipolar or hard-to-treat depression
This trial studies whether a seizure-like therapy using magnet stimulation can quickly reduce severe depressive symptoms in people with bipolar depression or treatment-resistant depression. It may help when depression is intense and hasn’t improved enough with at least two antidepressant medicines.
Houston, TexasAges 22–85 - NCT05219617RecruitingPhase 3
Carisbamate for frequent drop seizures in Lennox-Gastaut
This Phase 3 study tests whether carisbamate can reduce drop seizures in people with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS). It also checks whether the treatment is safe when added to existing seizure medicines.
Austin, TexasAges 4–55 - NCT05667142RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an add-on drug for hard-to-control generalized convulsive seizures
This Phase 3 trial tests XEN1101 added to your current seizure medicines for people with primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures. It’s for seizures that have not fully stopped even after trying at least two appropriate medicines.
El Paso, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT05716100RecruitingPhase 3
Study drug for focal epilepsy that isn’t controlled on current meds
This trial tests XEN1101 compared with a placebo (inactive pill) in people with focal-onset seizures that haven’t been fully controlled despite trying at least two anti-seizure medicines. If you qualify, you may help researchers see whether the study drug reduces seizure frequency and improves control.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06908356RecruitingPhase 2
Testing PRAX-628 for focal or tonic-clonic seizures
This study tests an experimental pill called PRAX-628 for adults whose seizures are not fully controlled by current medications. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective at reducing seizures.
Round Rock, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07233239RecruitingPhase 1
CBD liquid for focal epilepsy seizures
This trial tests a new cannabidiol (CBD) liquid medicine for people with focal epilepsy (seizures that start in one part of the brain). It looks at whether the medication can help reduce seizures when added to your current seizure medications.
Austin, TexasAges 12–75 - NCT05594017RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Test medicine to change brain rhythms and study memory
This early research study tests whether a medicine can change the brain’s electrical “rhythms” while people do memory-related tasks. It may help researchers understand how brain timing affects memory in people who are already being evaluated with specialized brain electrode monitoring.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–55 - NCT06265103Recruiting
Epilepsy learning healthcare system registry
This is a registry study that collects information from people being treated for epilepsy at participating healthcare centers. The goal is to improve care by learning from real-world patient data.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT05718817Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term study of XEN1101 for people with epilepsy
This study gives XEN1101 in an open-label way (everyone knows they’re getting the drug) to people who finished earlier epilepsy studies. It aims to see how the treatment continues to work and whether it’s safe over the long term.
Austin, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT06859424RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new GVHD prevention method after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common side effect of stem cell transplant) using a drug called cyclophosphamide after transplant. It is for adults with certain blood cancers who need a transplant from a partially matched unrelated donor.
Houston, TexasAges 18–66

What taking part in a seizures 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 seizures clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 16 recruiting seizures 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 seizures 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 seizures 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 seizures 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.
