CAR-T cell therapy for T-cell leukemia and lymphoma
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy (WU-CART-007) made from donor cells that target a protein called CD7 on cancer cells. It is for children and adults with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma that has come back or is still present after treatment.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1 year+ - NCT06773936Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Adding asciminib to usual care for adults with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL
This trial tests if adding asciminib, a targeted pill, to standard treatment works better for adults newly diagnosed with a specific type of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). It is for those who are older, or who cannot or choose not to have intensive chemotherapy.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 60 years+ - 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.
Columbus, OhioAges 13–90 - NCT06376162RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib with chemo for kids with relapsed acute leukemia
This trial tests a new targeted drug called ziftomenib combined with chemotherapy for children whose leukemia (with specific genetic changes) has come back or is not responding to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Cincinnati, OhioAges birth–21 years - NCT06124157RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo for children with Ph+ or Ph-like B-ALL
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (dasatinib or imatinib) to a chemotherapy combination with blinatumomab works better for children and young adults with a specific genetic form of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The goal is to see if this approach can improve treatment outcomes for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive or ABL-class Ph-like B-ALL.
Akron, OhioAges 1 year–46 years - 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.
Akron, OhioAges 40–75 - NCT03739814RecruitingPhase 2
Test inotuzumab, blinatumomab, and possibly ponatinib for CD22 ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of medicines (inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab), with or without ponatinib, for people with CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It aims to improve remission and control leukemia cells, including in the bone marrow.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03959085RecruitingPhase 3
Inotuzumab plus chemotherapy for high-risk childhood leukemia
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding inotuzumab to standard post-induction chemotherapy improves outcomes for children and young teens with high-risk B-ALL, mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), or certain high-risk B-LLy. It may help by targeting leukemia cells more directly, but participation depends on specific age, lab results, and medical history rules.
Akron, OhioAges 12 months–25 years - NCT03779854RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing graft-versus-host disease in kids after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether removing certain immune cells (T cells) from the donor transplant can lower the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (long-term immune attack after transplant) in children and young adults with blood cancers. If you qualify, it may help improve transplant outcomes while tracking safety and side effects.
Cleveland, OhioAges 6 months–26 years - NCT03533816RecruitingPhase 1
Gamma delta T-cell infusion after stem cell transplant
This early-phase study tests giving a special immune-cell treatment after an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant, plus a medication given after transplant to help the new immune system work better. It may help prevent or treat cancer returning after transplant.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT03666000RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a CD19 CAR T cell treatment for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and best dose of a CD19 CAR T cell therapy (azer-cel) in people whose B-cell blood cancer has returned or did not respond to treatment. It may help people with relapsed/refractory B-ALL or certain aggressive or large B-cell lymphomas, including after or before prior CAR T treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - 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.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 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.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04315324RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug OBI-3424 for relapsed T-cell blood cancer
This trial tests OBI-3424, an investigational medicine, in adults and children with relapsed or hard-to-treat T-cell acute leukemia or certain T-cell lymphoma. It may help by shrinking cancer when standard treatments have not worked.
Cleveland, OhioAges 12 years+ - 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.
Akron, OhioAges 1–30 - 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.
Columbus, OhioAges Up to 39 years - NCT05418088RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for hard-to-treat B-cell cancers
This Phase 1 study tests lab-made immune cells (CAR T-cells) that target CD19, CD20, and/or CD22 in people with certain relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers. It may help by attacking cancer cells that still carry these targets, but eligibility is very specific and includes prior treatments and health/lab requirements.
Columbus, OhioAges 2 years+ - NCT06034275RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VIP943 for CD123-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called VIP943 for people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML), B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose cancer cells have a marker called CD123. It is for those who have tried all other treatments or cannot receive them.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06680661RecruitingPhase 2
Double cord blood transplant with abatacept for GVHD prevention
This trial tests whether adding abatacept to a double cord blood transplant can prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in people with certain blood cancers. You may qualify if you have high-risk leukemia or other blood disorders and do not have a matched related or unrelated donor.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06918431RecruitingPhase 2
Erwinia asparaginase with chemo for new ALL or LBL
This trial tests adding an asparaginase drug to standard chemotherapy for adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL). The goal is to see if this combination improves outcomes.

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.
