Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT05366218RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tafasitamab for kids with high-risk B-cell leukemia after relapse
This Phase 1/2 study tests tafasitamab in children and teens with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that has come back or did not respond. It is mainly for patients with specific high-risk leukemia changes and/or leukemia markers that stay after stem cell transplant or CAR T-cell therapy.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 3–18 - NCT05322850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Engineered donor stem cell transplant for childhood blood cancers
This trial tests a new way to prepare donor stem cells before a transplant for children and young adults with blood cancers. The goal is to make the transplant safer and more effective, potentially reducing complications like graft-versus-host disease.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Up to 50 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.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 40–75 - NCT05105152RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for kids with CD33 AML that came back
This Phase 1 study tests a type of lab-made immune cell therapy (CAR T cells) made from your T cells to treat AML that has relapsed or not responded, as long as the cancer shows a marker called CD33. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help control AML after it returns or resists standard therapy.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Up to 30 years - NCT04988555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an investigational drug for high-risk acute leukemia
This Phase 1/2 study tests enzomenib (DSP-5336) in people with relapsed or hard-to-treat acute leukemia (and, in some places, certain other blood cancers). The goal is to see how the drug works and how safe it is, especially for leukemia cases with specific genetic changes (KMT2A/MLL or NPM1).
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04881240RecruitingPhase 1
Donor T-cell therapy for CD19-positive leukemia in young patients
This study tests a new treatment using donor immune cells (T-cells) that target a protein called CD19 on leukemia cells. It is for children and young adults with CD19-positive leukemia that has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04892277RecruitingPhase 1
CD19 CAR-T for adults with hard-to-treat B-cell cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a lab-made immune therapy (CD19 CAR-T) for adults whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond to treatment. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack cancer cells, but it is early research, so benefits and risks are still being defined.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04771572RecruitingPhase 1
Oral drug LP-118 for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an oral (by mouth) drug called LP-118 in people whose blood cancers have returned or did not respond to prior treatment. The goal is to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink or control the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 13 years+ - NCT04269902RecruitingPhase 3
Early treatment check for high-risk CLL/SLL
This Phase 3 trial studies an early treatment approach for people with high-risk CLL or SLL who have not yet needed standard therapy. It aims to see if treating earlier can improve outcomes while keeping side effects manageable.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04224974Recruiting
Engagement and symptom support for newly diagnosed acute leukemia
This trial tests an emotion- and symptom-focused way of engaging with care for people who are newly diagnosed with acute leukemia and starting intensive “induction” treatment aimed at cure. It may help you feel better supported and better able to manage distressing symptoms during a critical early phase of treatment.
Saint John, New BrunswickAges 18 years+ - NCT04195633RecruitingPhase 2
Haploidentical donor stem cell transplant to treat blood cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a specific stem cell transplant method (from a related “half-matched” donor) plus conditioning chemo and radiation can improve outcomes for several blood cancers. It may help people whose cancer is in remission but still considered high risk, or those who have had limited response after prior treatment.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 6 months+ - NCT04169737RecruitingPhase 2
Acalabrutinib and venetoclax for high-risk CLL or SLL
This trial tests whether acalabrutinib and venetoclax (with or without early obinutuzumab) can control chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is mainly for people whose disease is high-risk, has come back, or did not respond to earlier treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 4 weeks+ - NCT03934372RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ponatinib for children with relapsed or hard-to-treat cancers
This trial tests a targeted therapy called ponatinib in children whose leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumor has come back or hasn't improved with standard treatments. The drug works by blocking signals that help cancer cells grow, and the study looks at how safe and effective it is for different cancer types.
GhentAges 1–17 - NCT03970096RecruitingPhase 2
Reduce graft-versus-host disease after stem cell transplant
This Phase 2 study tests ways to lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after an allogeneic stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It is for people with acute leukemia or MDS who are going to receive intensive conditioning therapy, aiming to improve safety while keeping the transplant effective.
Tampa, FloridaAges 1–60 - NCT03802695RecruitingPhase 1
Orca-Q pill to help during stem cell transplant
This Phase 1 trial studies Orca-Q to see if it is safe and works when added around the time of an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant for certain blood cancers. If you qualify, the study may offer a new option for managing the transplant immune response.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12–78 - NCT03666000RecruitingPhase 1
Azer-cel for B-cell lymphoma and leukemia that has returned
This trial tests an investigational cell therapy called Azer-cel for people with certain types of blood cancer (non-Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, or B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia) that has come back or not responded to previous treatments. The therapy uses your own immune cells that have been modified to find and attack cancer cells.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03633955RecruitingPhase 1
Imaging study for people with high-risk leukemia
This early (Phase 1) study tests how a special scan works in people with relapsed or hard-to-treat leukemia types. The scan uses a tracer called 18F FLT, and the study looks to see if it can be done safely (without sedation) and how it relates to treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 4–80 - NCT03314974RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant study for blood cancers
This Phase 2 study tests a strong (myeloablative) stem cell transplant using donor stem cells (allogeneic transplant) for certain blood and bone marrow cancers. The goal is to see how well this approach works and whether it can improve outcomes for people who need transplant-level treatment.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 60 years - NCT03104491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Inotuzumab after transplant for CD22-positive leukemia
This trial studies inotuzumab ozogamicin, a leukemia-targeting medicine, given after an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It’s for people with CD22-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to help prevent relapse and improve outcomes after transplant.
Westwood, KansasAges 16–75 - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT01890486Recruiting
Collecting information from people having a stem cell transplant
This study aims to collect, store, and share data from patients who are receiving standard intensive treatment and a stem cell transplant from either their own cells or a donor. It may help improve how future patients are treated by building a reliable record of outcomes and care patterns.
