- NCT05702645Recruiting
Down syndrome long-term study after leukemia treatment
This study follows children and young adults with Down syndrome who have survived acute leukemia (ALL or AML) to learn about their longer-term health after treatment ends. It may help families and doctors understand what health problems to watch for and how to provide better follow-up care.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 6–39 - NCT04747912RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy-free early treatment for Ph+ ALL using inotuzumab
This Phase 2 trial tests a treatment strategy for newly diagnosed Ph+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that avoids traditional chemotherapy during the early “induction” phase, using inotuzumab ozogamicin instead. If it works, it could help control the leukemia while reducing exposure to chemotherapy early on.

Ziftomenib with chemotherapy for children with relapsed leukemia
This trial tests whether adding a new drug called ziftomenib to standard chemotherapy can help children whose leukemia has come back or not responded to treatment. It is for children with certain genetic changes in their leukemia cells.
Chicago, IllinoisAges birth–21 years - NCT05082519RecruitingPhase 2
Calorie restriction and exercise to improve leukemia treatment in young patients
This study tests whether a special diet (calorie restriction) and increased physical activity can make chemotherapy work better for young people with B-ALL. Participants will follow a monitored diet and exercise plan during their first month of treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 7–25 - NCT05289687RecruitingPhase 2
Daratumumab for hard-to-clear T-cell leukemia traces
This Phase 2 trial tests daratumumab (a targeted antibody medicine) in people with T-cell ALL whose leukemia is not fully gone at very low levels. The goal is to eliminate “minimal residual disease” (MRD) that can predict relapse, so treatment may be more effective after intensive chemotherapy.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.

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
