Recruiting studies
- NCT03081910RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells made from your own cells to treat CD5 tumors
This early-phase trial tests a type of immune-cell therapy (CAR T cells) made using T cells with a CD5-targeting “zipper” to treat certain relapsed T-cell cancers. The goal is to see if the treatment can help shrink or clear the cancer, especially enough to move toward a stem cell transplant plan.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 75 years - NCT05025774Recruiting
Exercise program study for young heart, leukemia, and lung survivors
This study looks at how an exercise program affects fitness and lung function in young people who are survivors of certain conditions (heart transplant, leukemia, or lung disease from prematurity). The goal is to see whether exercise can improve breathing and overall physical function safely.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 8–25 - NCT05512169Recruiting
Genetic study in Indian children with newly diagnosed leukemia
This study looks at genetic (DNA) differences to understand acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in Indian children and how treatments may fit better. You may be able to join if your child is newly diagnosed, meets the study’s treatment plan rules, and provides consent.
New DelhiAges 1–18 - NCT06709469RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy for children, teens, and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if the therapy can put the leukemia into remission so the patient may then have a stem cell transplant.
Madrid, MadridAges Up to 30 years - NCT06891144Recruiting
Study of older adults with AML getting intensive treatment
This study follows people aged 60 and older with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are receiving strong chemotherapy. It aims to learn more about their health outcomes and better understand the disease in this age group.

New drug combo in stem cell transplant for myeloid cancers
This trial tests adding two new drugs, decitabine and venetoclax, to a standard reduced-intensity stem cell transplant for people with certain types of leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. The goal is to see if this combination can improve outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT07072494RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD19 CAR-T cells as consolidation for B-cell ALL
This trial tests a single infusion of CD19 CAR-T cells as a consolidation treatment to keep leukemia in remission for patients who are not eligible for or decline a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this therapy can prevent relapse.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 14–80 - NCT07220993RecruitingPhase 1
Modified immune cells for aggressive T-cell cancers
This trial tests a new treatment using specially engineered immune cells (CAR T cells) from a past stem cell donor to attack cancer cells in people with certain types of T-cell cancers that have returned after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this treatment can lead to remission so a second stem cell transplant can be done.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 75 years - NCT03383575RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine plus enasidenib for IDH2-mutant MDS
This trial tests whether combining azacitidine with enasidenib helps people with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that has an IDH2 mutation. It’s designed for people who are either new to “hypomethylating” treatment or whose MDS returned/worsened after it.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT07325305Recruiting
Exercise to protect muscle in childhood leukemia
This trial tests whether starting physical activity and exercise early in treatment can help children with leukemia prevent muscle loss and reduce frailty. It involves wearing a Fitbit to track activity and may help kids stay stronger during and after treatment.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 5–17 - NCT06263387Recruiting
Study of venetoclax and azacitidine for untreated AML patients
This trial looks at how well the combination of venetoclax and azacitidine works for people with newly diagnosed AML who cannot have strong chemotherapy. It is a real-world study of patients already getting this treatment through a special program in France.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06022003RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine plus gilteritinib for FLT3-mutated AML
This trial tests whether adding an oral chemotherapy pill (azacitidine) to the targeted drug gilteritinib helps people whose FLT3-mutated AML came back or didn't respond after their first treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is more effective than gilteritinib alone.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06648889RecruitingPhase 2
Isatuximab for relapsed or hard-to-treat T-cell leukemia
This trial tests a drug called isatuximab for people with a type of leukemia (T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia) that has come back after treatment or that did not go away. Isatuximab targets a protein on the leukemia cells, which might help the immune system fight the disease.
AugsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06690827RecruitingPhase 1
Cd123-targeted car-nk cells for relapsed aml or bpdcn
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells (natural killer cells) that are modified to find and attack cancer cells with a marker called CD123. It is for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) that has come back or not responded to standard therapies.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06395103RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zilovertamab vedotin for blood cancers and solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zilovertamab vedotin for children and young adults with certain blood cancers or solid tumors. The drug is designed to target and kill cancer cells, and the study will see if it is safe and effective.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 6 months–25 years - NCT05904106RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax plus azacitidine versus stronger chemotherapy for AML
This Phase 2 trial compares two treatment approaches for people newly diagnosed with a specific type of AML (bone marrow cancer) that has an NPM1 mutation: venetoclax plus azacitidine versus intensive (strong) chemotherapy. It aims to see which plan works better and is safer for “fit” patients.
