Recruiting studies in Tennessee
- 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.

A study of CER-1236 for certain blood cancers
This trial tests an experimental cell therapy called CER-1236 for people with acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or myelofibrosis. It aims to see if it can help treat these cancers.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–85 - 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 - NCT06672146RecruitingPhase 2

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.
