Recruiting studies
- NCT06904066RecruitingPhase 1
Custom T cells for blood cancers with specific mutations
This trial tests a personalized treatment where your immune cells are collected, modified to recognize unique cancer markers (neoantigens) from TP53 or RAS mutations, and returned to fight blood cancers like AML, MDS, or multiple myeloma.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05857969RecruitingPhase 1
Testing cancer drug response on removed tumor tissue
This early study uses tumor tissue (or bone marrow from blood cancers) and performs lab tests to see which cancer drugs may work better for each person. It also collects genetic information from blood or a saliva swab to help understand why cancers respond differently.
Miami, FloridaAges 1 day–21 years - NCT05554406RecruitingPhase 2
New drug therapy for high-risk AML
This trial is testing new drug combinations for people with newly diagnosed, high-risk AML who have not yet started treatment. It aims to find more effective therapies for this aggressive form of leukemia.

Xylitol dental wipes to reduce infection risk in childhood leukemia
This trial tests whether using xylitol dental wipes can lower the risk of bloodstream infections in children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are receiving chemotherapy.

Adding venetoclax and blinatumomab to chemo for infant leukemia
This trial tests adding two newer medicines (venetoclax and blinatumomab) to standard chemotherapy for infants with a specific type of leukemia. The goal is to see if this combination helps more babies stay cancer-free.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 12 months - NCT07582172RecruitingPhase 2
Stem Cell Transplant for Hard-to-Treat Blood Cancers in Older Adults
This trial tests a new combination of radiation and chemotherapy to prepare your body for a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It's designed for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that hasn't responded well to standard treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03661307RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Quizartinib, decitabine, and venetoclax for AML or high-risk MDS
This early-phase trial studies a 3-drug combination to treat certain types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in adults. It may help by targeting cancer cells using different medicines, especially for people who may not be able to get intensive chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06001788RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new drug combination called ziftomenib for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Researchers will check how safe it is and what side effects happen.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07012044RecruitingPhase 1
Cedazuridine and decitabine after stem cell transplant for childhood leukemia
This trial tests if adding two chemotherapy drugs (cedazuridine and decitabine) along with a growth factor (filgrastim) can help prevent leukemia from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for children and young adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia who are in remission after transplant.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 21 years - NCT06399640RecruitingPhase 1
Eltanexor and venetoclax for blood cancers
This trial tests a combination of two oral drugs, eltanexor and venetoclax, for people with certain types of blood cancer that have come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the disease.

It may help patients whose AML has these genetic features respond better to intensive treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 938 recruiting acute leukemia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute leukemia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute leukemia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
