Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT05320198RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing DISC-0974 for anemia in myelofibrosis or MDS
This trial tests an investigational drug called DISC-0974 for people with myelofibrosis or certain types of MDS who have low red blood cell counts (anemia). The goal is to see if this treatment can help improve anemia and reduce the need for blood transfusions.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07623161RecruitingPhase 3
Elritercept versus placebo for myelofibrosis anemia on ruxolitinib
This study tests whether a new drug called elritercept can help reduce the need for blood transfusions in adults with myelofibrosis (a bone marrow cancer) who are already taking ruxolitinib. The goal is to see if elritercept helps your body make more red blood cells naturally.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07422480RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing elritercept to epoetin alfa for anemia in MDS needing transfusions
This trial tests a new drug called elritercept against a standard treatment, epoetin alfa, for people with a low-risk form of MDS who need regular blood transfusions for anemia. The goal is to see if elritercept works better to reduce the need for transfusions.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06517641RecruitingPhase 2
Early bone marrow transplant for severe aplastic anemia
This trial tests whether an early bone marrow transplant from a half-matched family member or an unrelated donor can help people with severe aplastic anemia. It aims to restore the body's ability to make healthy blood cells.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 3–75 - NCT07227155Recruiting
HOPE Biobank for bone marrow failure patients
This study collects blood samples from patients with aplastic anemia, sickle cell disease, thalassemia, or other bone marrow failure conditions who are receiving a stem cell transplant or gene therapy. The samples will be stored and used for future research to better understand and treat these diseases.
Durham, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT06499285RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug to treat anemia in adults with low to intermediate risk MDS who need transfusions
This study tests a new drug called elritercept for people with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who have low blood counts and need regular blood transfusions. The drug aims to boost red blood cell production and reduce or eliminate the need for transfusions, which can improve energy and quality of life.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06481306RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for sickle cell disease in healthy people and patients
This early-phase study tests a new drug (BMS-986470) for people with sickle cell disease who have frequent pain crises. The goal is to see if it can safely reduce crises. It includes a small group of healthy volunteers as well.
Greenville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06038630RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon gas MRI study for lung and heart health
This study uses a special MRI scan (Xenon gas imaging) to look at how well your lungs and heart are working. It is for people with certain lung conditions, those getting blood transfusions or phlebotomy, or healthy volunteers.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05477563RecruitingPhase 3
One-time gene therapy for severe sickle cell and transfusion anemia
This trial tests a single dose of gene therapy (CTX001) to improve outcomes for people with severe sickle cell disease or transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia. It aims to see how well it works and whether it is safe, especially after a planned stem cell transplant process.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 12–35 - NCT04208529Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term follow-up after receiving CTX001 infusion
This study follows people for a long time after they received CTX001 in an earlier (parent) study. It helps researchers learn about long-term safety and outcomes of the treatment.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 2 years+ - NCT01351545Recruiting
Cryopreserved cord blood access program for transplant patients
This trial studies an organized way to obtain and distribute unlicensed (not FDA-approved for general use) stored cord blood units that have been frozen and kept. It may help people who need a cord blood transplant but don’t fit the “licensed cord blood only” options.

What taking part in a anemia 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.

- How do I find out if I qualify for a anemia study in North Carolina?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in North Carolina to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in North Carolina, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
