Recruiting studies
- NCT03852407RecruitingPhase 2
Two kinds of conditioning before matched stem cell transplant
This trial compares two reduced-intensity conditioning regimens before you receive stem cells from a donor who matches your HLA type. It aims to find which approach works better and is safer for certain blood cancers.
AntwerpAges 18–75 - NCT07867600Recruiting
Lower-dose chemo for children with new leukemia
This trial tests a lower starting dose of chemotherapy for children newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a type of blood cancer. The goal is to see if a reduced dose is still effective and safer for children.
Asyut, Asyut GovernorateAges Up to 18 years - NCT05772559Recruiting
Study of AML genes and drug response in young patients
This trial looks at how childhood, teen, and young adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) changes at the genetic level and how cells respond to multiple drugs. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best and how leukemia interacts with supportive cells in the bone marrow.
AmiensAges Up to 25 years - NCT07645469RecruitingPhase 1
WT1-targeting T cells with azacitidine for AML
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has minimal residual disease (small amounts of cancer left after treatment). The therapy uses your own immune cells, modified to target a protein called WT1 on leukemia cells, and combines it with a drug called azacitidine.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07566377RecruitingPhase 2
Cord Blood Transplant for Children and Young Adults With Blood Cancer
This study tests whether using cord blood stem cells (collected from umbilical cords after birth) can help treat high-risk blood cancers in children and young adults when a matched donor is not quickly available. Cord blood transplants may help prevent cancer from coming back.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 26 years - NCT07439211RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug combo for acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new drug, eganelisib, combined with azacitidine and venetoclax for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It's for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to treatment, or for those with a high-risk type who haven't been treated yet.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–90 - NCT07366801RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Preventing graft versus host disease in children with blood cancer
This trial tests if adding special immune cells (Treg cells) to a stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor can lower the risk of graft versus host disease (a serious side effect where donor cells attack the patient's body) in children and young adults with blood cancers.
MoscowAges 1–25 - NCT07256210RecruitingPhase 2
Donor NK cells to prevent leukemia return after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether giving donor natural killer (NK) cells after a stem cell transplant can help prevent leukemia from coming back. It is for people aged 14-25 with certain hard-to-treat leukemias who are already getting a stem cell transplant from a related donor.
MoscowAges 1 month–25 years - NCT07232134RecruitingPhase 3
Treating AML in children with Down syndrome
This trial tests a treatment plan for children with Down syndrome who have been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or a related bone marrow condition. The goal is to see how well the therapy works and to help guide doctors in choosing the best approach.
MoscowAges 1 day–18 years - NCT07022678RecruitingPhase 3
Xylitol dental wipes to reduce infection risk in childhood leukemia
This trial tests whether using xylitol dental wipes can lower the risk of bloodstream infections in children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are receiving chemotherapy. If you or your child have AML and will have at least two cycles of chemo that include cytarabine, this study may help reduce infection risk.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–25 - NCT07012044RecruitingPhase 1
Cedazuridine and decitabine after stem cell transplant for childhood leukemia
This trial tests if adding two chemotherapy drugs (cedazuridine and decitabine) along with a growth factor (filgrastim) can help prevent leukemia from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for children and young adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia who are in remission after transplant.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 21 years - NCT06880354RecruitingPhase 1
Dual-target CAR-T cells for relapsed or refractory AML
This study tests a new CAR-T cell therapy that targets two proteins, CLL1 and CD38, on leukemia cells. It is designed for people whose acute myeloid leukemia has returned or not responded to treatment.
TianjinAges 18–70 - NCT06892158Recruiting
Massage therapy for sleep in teens with cancer
This trial studies if massage therapy can help teenagers and young adults with cancer sleep better while they are in the hospital. Participants will receive massage sessions and answer questions about their sleep.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 12–21 - NCT06839456RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell addback to prevent infections after transplant
This trial tests whether adding back certain immune cells after a stem cell transplant can help prevent serious viral or fungal infections. It's for children and young adults up to age 25 who need a transplant for a blood cancer or other curable disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–25 years - NCT06810583RecruitingPhase 1
Dalbavancin to prevent infections in children with high-risk leukemia
This trial tests whether an antibiotic called dalbavancin, given to prevent bacterial infections during chemotherapy-induced low white blood cell counts, is safe and works in children and young adults with certain types of leukemia. It may help reduce the risk of serious infections during treatment.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 25 years - NCT05994690RecruitingPhase 3
Newly diagnosed pediatric AML trial with extra treatment options
This trial studies different treatment plans for children and teens newly diagnosed with AML (a type of blood cancer). Depending on the child's tumor markers and risk group, they may be offered an extra drug (quizartinib) or a targeted antibody (Mylotarg) to see if it improves outcomes.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 1 day–18 years - NCT06262438RecruitingPhase 2
Quizartinib plus chemo for children with FLT3-ITD AML
This study adds a targeted drug called quizartinib to standard chemotherapy for children with a certain type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has a FLT3-ITD gene change. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for treating newly diagnosed patients.
Utrecht, UtrechtAges 1 month–18 years - NCT06484062RecruitingPhase 1
Testing cirtuvivint alone and with ASTX727 for leukemia and MDS
This trial tests a new drug called cirtuvivint, given alone or with another drug (ASTX727), for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that has come back or not responded to treatment, and for people with high-risk MDS who have not been treated before. The goal is to see if these combinations work better than current options.
