Recruiting studies
- NCT07283094RecruitingPhase 1
FHD-286 with decitabine and venetoclax for AML
This early-phase trial tests a new study drug called FHD-286 combined with two standard AML medicines (decitabine and venetoclax). It is for people with a high-risk type of AML that is either newly diagnosed (and you cannot have strong chemotherapy) or has come back after one prior treatment.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07326930Recruiting
Nerve changes in children with leukemia during chemotherapy
This study tracks how chemotherapy affects nerves in children aged 8 to 17 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It aims to understand who may experience nerve problems, helping doctors better manage symptoms.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 8–17 - NCT07328503RecruitingPhase 2
CD22 CAR T-cells to prevent relapse after CD19 CAR T-cell therapy
This trial tests if giving a second type of CAR T-cell therapy that targets CD22 can help keep B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in remission for people who are already in remission after CD19 CAR T-cell treatment. It aims to reduce the risk of the cancer coming back.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–65 - NCT07374029RecruitingPhase 1
T cell therapy with vaccine, decitabine, and venetoclax in AML
This trial tests a treatment that combines a personalized vaccine made from your leukemia cells and your own immune cells (T cells) with standard chemotherapy drugs (decitabine and venetoclax). The goal is to help your immune system better fight the leukemia.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT07392242RecruitingPhase 2
Ivosidenib, azacitidine, and venetoclax for acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a combination of three targeted drugs for people with a specific type of AML that has an IDH1 mutation. The goal is to see if the combination helps control the leukemia and if continuing with just ivosidenib can keep it in remission.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 60 years+ - NCT01409161RecruitingPhase 2
Tretinoin and arsenic drugs for newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia
This trial studies how well a combination of tretinoin (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO)—with or without another antibody-like drug called gemtuzumab—treats people with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). The goal is to see if these medicines work better together and are safe.
Houston, TexasAges 10 years+ - NCT02508038RecruitingPhase 1
Test CD19+ depleted donor transplant for hard childhood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a special type of half-matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant plus medicines, aiming to reduce cancer relapse after transplant. It may help children and teens with certain leukemia/lymphoma or specific solid tumors who do not have a fully matched donor or whose best options are limited.
Madison, WisconsinAges 7 months–21 years - NCT03222674RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T treatment for acute myeloid leukemia in children and adults
This trial tests a lab-made immune cell treatment (CAR T cells) that targets specific markers on acute myeloid leukemia cells. It aims to control the leukemia, but it also involves close monitoring because it is an early-phase study.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 2–75 - NCT02646839Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing a gene-matched transplant approach for childhood leukemia
This trial studies a specific type of partially matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant in children with ALL, AML, or MDS. It looks at whether using certain immune system gene patterns (KIR) and measuring leftover disease after treatment can improve outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT03571321RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib plus chemotherapy for Ph-like B-ALL
This early-phase study tests whether adding ruxolitinib (a targeted medicine) to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes in adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed Ph-like B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It targets specific genetic features (“JAK-targetable signature”) thought to make the leukemia more responsive to JAK-blocking treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–39 - NCT07512700RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combination versus standard therapy for acute monocytic leukemia
This study tests whether a newer drug called venetoclax, combined with a chemotherapy regimen called CACAG, works better than the standard "3+7" chemotherapy for treating acute monocytic leukemia (a blood cancer). The goal is to help patients achieve remission and improve survival.
BeijingAges 14–60 - NCT07563179RecruitingPhase 2
Bugitinib with Venetoclax and Cytarabine for Relapsed AML
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (bugitinib, venetoclax, and cytarabine) for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has returned or didn't respond to prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help patients achieve remission and improve survival.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07584889RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T Cell Therapy for Relapsed Blood Cancers
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-T cells) designed to fight blood cancers that have come back or stopped responding to standard treatments. The therapy uses your own immune cells, which are modified in a lab to better recognize and attack cancer cells.
Shenzhen, Other (Non U.s.)Ages 18–75 - NCT07623616RecruitingPhase 2
Ziftomenib for relapsed AML with NPM1 mutation
This trial tests a new drug called ziftomenib in patients whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or stopped responding to treatment and has a specific genetic change called an NPM1 mutation. The drug targets a protein called menin that may help cancer cells grow, and researchers hope it could help patients who have run out of standard treatment options.
ChibaAges 18 years+ - NCT07668557RecruitingPhase 1
CLL1-CD33 CAR-T cells for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-T) designed to find and kill leukemia cells that carry two specific markers (CLL-1 and CD33). It is for adults with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or is not responding to standard treatments.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–70 - NCT07515430Enrolling by invitation
Gut Bacteria and Cancer Symptoms in Children With Leukemia
This study looks at how the bacteria living in your child's gut may affect cancer-related symptoms (like nausea, fatigue, or pain) during leukemia treatment. Researchers will collect stool samples and track symptoms to understand this connection better.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 5–18 - NCT06697327Enrolling by invitation
Testing a three-drug combo for newly diagnosed AML
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—daunorubicin, cytarabine, and venetoclax—for people with newly diagnosed AML who are strong enough to receive intensive chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding venetoclax helps improve treatment outcomes.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–59 - NCT05983172Enrolling by invitation
Genomic risk study for new AML patients
This study uses advanced genetic analysis to better understand risk in people newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at a specific hospital. It may help tailor future treatments.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06289673RecruitingPhase 4
