Recruiting studies near Houston
- NCT07356154RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of revumenib and mezigdomide for leukemia
This trial tests two experimental drugs, revumenib and mezigdomide, for people with acute leukemia that has certain genetic changes (NPM1, KMT2A, or NUP98) and has come back or not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the leukemia.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT04972942RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy for high-risk T-cell blood cancers after transplant
This Phase 1 study tests a targeted immune treatment given after strong pre-treatment (myeloablative chemo plus total-body radiation) before or along with an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back in young people with high-risk T-cell ALL or certain T-cell lymphomas.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 39 years - NCT05848687RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Newborns with CD19 leukemia may try a combined infant therapy
This early-phase study is testing a “total therapy” treatment plan for very young babies (diagnosed within the first year of life) with certain types of leukemia that carry the CD19 marker. It may help find safer and more effective treatment for infants with this disease, especially soon after diagnosis.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 1 year - NCT03263572RecruitingPhase 2
Study medicines for Philadelphia-positive ALL or relapsed leukemia
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of medicines to treat Philadelphia chromosome–positive (Ph-positive) or BCR-ABL–positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), including cases that have come back or did not respond. It may help by targeting specific leukemia signals while also aiming to improve disease control.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01351545Recruiting
Cryopreserved cord blood access program for transplant patients
This trial studies an organized way to obtain and distribute unlicensed (not FDA-approved for general use) stored cord blood units that have been frozen and kept. It may help people who need a cord blood transplant but don’t fit the “licensed cord blood only” options.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT03509961RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing total body radiation for children with leukemia transplants
This study looks at whether some children and young adults with B-ALL can safely get a transplant without total body irradiation (TBI), based on special leukemia test results. It’s meant to help lower radiation-related risks while keeping leukemia control strong.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT04065399RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing revumenib for relapsed acute leukemia with certain gene changes
This trial tests revumenib, a targeted medicine, to treat acute leukemia that has come back or hasn’t fully gone away. It may help people whose leukemia has specific gene changes (like KMT2A or NPM1) by trying to better control the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 4 weeks+ - NCT04260022RecruitingPhase 1
Drug study for hard-to-treat CML or Ph+ ALL
This Phase 1 study tests HQP1351 for people with CML or Ph+ ALL that has not responded well to standard targeted pills (TKIs), or those who could not tolerate them. It’s designed to see whether the treatment can work and how safe it is for this difficult-to-treat group.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06308588RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Blinatumomab and asciminib for Ph+ ALL
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (blinatumomab and asciminib) for people with a specific type of leukemia (Ph+ ALL). The goal is to see if the combination works better than either drug alone in controlling the leukemia.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04150497RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new cell therapy for CD22-positive leukemia
This trial tests UCART22, a new cell-based treatment, for people with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) that has the CD22 marker. It may help by attacking leukemia cells that carry CD22.
Houston, TexasAges 15–50 - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Houston, TexasAges 40–75 - NCT04546399RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab with or without nivolumab for first relapse ALL
This study compares blinatumomab alone versus blinatumomab plus nivolumab in young people whose B-cell ALL has returned for the first time. It aims to see whether adding nivolumab improves control of the leukemia after relapse.
Houston, TexasAges 1–30 - 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.
Houston, TexasAges 6–39 - NCT07513129RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combination for relapsed T-cell blood cancer in teens and young adults
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (venetoclax, dexamethasone, bortezomib, and daratumumab) to treat T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma that has come back or stopped responding to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help patients aged 12–30 achieve remission.
Houston, TexasAges 12–30 - NCT06514794RecruitingPhase 2
A study of a new cell therapy for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoma
This trial tests an investigational cell therapy that uses donated immune cells to find and destroy cancer cells in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) that has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this therapy can help achieve remission for these patients.
Houston, TexasAges 6 months+ - NCT06376162RecruitingPhase 1
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.
Houston, TexasAges birth–21 years - 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 - 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.
Houston, TexasAges 7–25 - NCT06533579RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for CD19-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a new gene therapy treatment for people with certain types of leukemia or lymphoma that have the CD19 marker and have not responded to other treatments. The therapy uses a virus to deliver a gene to target and kill cancer cells.
Houston, TexasAges 13–90 - 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.

What taking part in a acute lymphoblastic leukemia 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.
