Recruiting studies in California
- NCT04243785RecruitingPhase 1
Testing BTX-A51 for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This Phase 1 study tests BTX-A51 in adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It’s designed to see if the treatment can be given safely and to learn how it works in people whose standard treatments have not helped or are no longer an option.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04905810RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine or decitabine plus venetoclax for AML after prior failure
This trial studies whether adding venetoclax to either azacitidine or decitabine can treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) when earlier “hypomethylating” treatment has stopped working. You might be a candidate if you’ve already tried azacitidine or decitabine for a related blood condition and it failed, and you meet the health-safety limits.
Clovis, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07581002RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New AML Treatment With Three Drug Combination Study
This study tests a new three-drug combination (pivekimab sunirine, venetoclax, and azacitidine) for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia in patients who cannot tolerate intensive chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective at controlling the disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07582172RecruitingPhase 2
Stem Cell Transplant for Hard-to-Treat Blood Cancers in Older Adults
This trial tests a new combination of radiation and chemotherapy to prepare your body for a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It's designed for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that hasn't responded well to standard treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT05190471RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for adults with AML that did not respond or returned
This Phase 1 study tests BP1002 in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is refractory (not responding) or relapsed (coming back). It’s early-stage, aiming to find a safe dose and see if the treatment can help people with limited options.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07306832RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IV Pivekimab Sunirine for Children with Relapsed AML
This study tests an experimental IV drug called pivekimab sunirine for children whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has returned or not responded to previous treatments. The drug targets a specific marker on leukemia cells (CD123) to try to kill them.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 6 months–17 years - NCT07304011RecruitingPhase 2
Olutasidenib and azacitidine for IDH1-mutated AML after venetoclax
This trial tests whether adding the targeted therapy olutasidenib to the chemotherapy drug azacitidine can help people with a certain type of AML (one with an IDH1 mutation) who have already had some treatment but still have the disease. The goal is to see if this combination can lead to a longer remission.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07302776RecruitingPhase 1
Stopping immune suppression after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether it's safe to stop one type of anti-rejection medication (tacrolimus) earlier than usual after a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. If you qualify, you may be able to reduce your long-term medication burden.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07223814RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug with standard chemo for AML
This trial adds an experimental drug called bleximenib to the usual chemotherapy for people newly diagnosed with AML who have certain genetic changes (NPM1 or KMT2A). The goal is to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07216443RecruitingPhase 2
Study of orca-t for leukemia or MDS with reduced intensity chemo
This trial tests a new cell therapy, orca-t, given after a lower-intensity chemo and radiation regimen for people with acute myeloid leukemia, mixed phenotype leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome. It aims to help patients who cannot tolerate full-intensity transplant conditioning.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07211958RecruitingPhase 3
Revumenib plus chemo for newly diagnosed AML with NPM1 mutation
This trial tests a new drug, revumenib, combined with strong chemotherapy for people with a specific type of AML (NPM1 mutation). The goal is to see if adding revumenib helps treat the leukemia better than chemo alone.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT06462365RecruitingPhase 1

What taking part in a acute myeloid 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.
