Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT06562907RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an experimental drug for weight and diabetes
This study tests an investigational drug called GS-4571 in healthy people, people with obesity, and people with type 2 diabetes. It aims to see how the drug affects the body and whether it might help with weight and blood sugar control.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT06143566RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Polypill to prevent heart failure in diabetes and kidney disease
This trial tests a 'polypill' (a combination of several medicines in one pill) to prevent heart failure in people with type 2 diabetes and kidney disease. It may help reduce your risk of developing heart muscle problems.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–100 - NCT05960656RecruitingPhase 1
Study of SGLT2 inhibitor effects on liver sugar production
This trial tests how stopping a type 2 diabetes medication called an SGLT2 inhibitor affects the liver's production of sugar and ketones. It may help understand better ways to manage diabetes.
San Antonio, TexasAges 30–75 - NCT05305287RecruitingPhase 4
Measuring liver energy use in people with diabetes and fatty liver disease
This study looks at how the liver uses energy (mitochondria) in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. By understanding this, researchers may find better ways to treat liver problems.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT05168605Recruiting
Targeted home visits for adults with diabetes and high blood pressure
This study tests whether tailored visits from a care team at your home can improve ongoing health problems from high blood pressure and poorly controlled blood sugar. It may help you by making care easier to follow and more personalized to your daily life.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–60 - NCT02969798Recruiting
Study of prediabetes with abnormal sugars and medicines
This study looks at adults with prediabetes—specifically abnormal fasting and/or 2-hour blood sugar tests—to see whether a treatment helps improve sugar control. You may also be compared with people who have normal blood sugar (the control group).
San Antonio, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT07783802RecruitingPhase 2
Study of clazakizumab for adults with high inflammation and heart risk
This study tests whether clazakizumab can reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes in people with high levels of inflammation (measured by a blood test called hsCRP) and conditions like heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, or kidney disease. If you qualify, you'll receive either the study drug or a placebo to see if it helps lower your risk.
Cypress, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07684144RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term study of a weight-loss medication for people who completed an earlier trial
This study tests the long-term effects of a medication called maridebart cafraglutide for weight management. It is for people who already completed a 72-week study of this drug and want to continue treatment.
Austin, TexasAges 18–99 - NCT06112418Recruiting
Personalized vs standard care to prevent heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to prevent heart attacks and strokes: one uses a special heart CT scan to guide care, the other uses standard risk factors like blood pressure and cholesterol. You may be eligible if you are older (men over 55, women over 65) and have diabetes, prediabetes, or metabolic syndrome.
Abilene, TexasAges 55 years+ - NCT06971939RecruitingPhase 4
Long-term safety of NT-501 implant for MacTel type 2
This study checks the long-term safety and effectiveness of the NT-501 implant for people with MacTel type 2. It is for people who have already been in an earlier NT-501 study, whether they got the real implant or a sham procedure.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07254364Recruiting
Wearable sensor study for glucose monitoring
This study tests a wearable device that may measure blood sugar without needles. It could help people manage their diet and health more easily.
College Station, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT00097292Recruiting
Preventing Type 1 Diabetes in At-Risk People
This study looks for people at high risk of developing type 1 diabetes (based on family history or blood markers) and follows them over time to understand disease development. The goal is to eventually prevent or delay type 1 diabetes in people who don't have it yet.
Dallas, TexasAges 2–45 - NCT04334707Recruiting
Study kidney damage in people with long-term diabetes
This study is looking at different kidney health patterns in people with diabetes, especially diabetic kidney disease and people who have not developed kidney damage despite long-term diabetes. It may help researchers understand why kidney problems happen—and what protective factors might prevent them.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07396376RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing ELU42 spray for diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests a new topical spray (ELU42) to help heal diabetic foot ulcers. It may be a good option if you have a non-infected, non-ischemic ulcer and your blood sugar is reasonably controlled.
McAllen, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07812090RecruitingPhase 2
Oral medication for diabetic macular edema
This study tests an oral medication that may reduce swelling in the retina caused by diabetes. If you have diabetic macular edema affecting your central vision, this trial could help you preserve or improve your sight.
McAllen, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT07867080RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy injection for diabetic macular edema
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy injection into the eye for adults with diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition where fluid builds up in the retina and blurs vision. The goal is to reduce the need for frequent eye injections and help maintain vision over time.
Abilene, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06328010Enrolling by invitation
Real-world data registry for wound care treatments
This study collects information on various wound types and how they respond to standard care. It aims to learn what works best for wounds that haven't healed after 4 weeks of treatment.

What taking part in a type 2 diabetes 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 type 2 diabetes clinical trials in Texas?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 89 recruiting type 2 diabetes 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 type 2 diabetes 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 type 2 diabetes 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.
