Testing a red blood transfusion approach during ECMO
This study looks at whether giving red blood cell transfusions in a specific way is practical and safe for people receiving ECMO (a heart-lung support machine). It’s mainly a feasibility study, meaning the goal is to see if the plan can be carried out smoothly and safely.

Testing CC312 for people with autoimmune diseases
This early-phase study tests a new drug called CC312 in patients with certain autoimmune diseases like lupus, myositis, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, immune thrombocytopenia, or autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The goal is to see if it's safe and how the body handles it.
Tianjin, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06879080Recruiting
Maternal iron levels and child health
This trial looks at how a mother’s iron levels during pregnancy might affect her child’s health. It aims to learn more about the link, which could help improve care for both.
Tampere, PirkanmaaAges Any age - 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 - NCT06788691RecruitingPhase 2
Luspatercept for low blood counts with gene change (CCUS)
This trial tests a drug called luspatercept for people with a condition called CCUS, where they have low blood counts and a gene change. The goal is to see if the drug can improve blood counts and reduce symptoms like fatigue or bleeding risk.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06761560RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Hydroxyurea dosing for children with sickle cell anemia
This study looks at whether adjusting the dose of hydroxyurea based on drug levels in the blood works better than the standard approach for treating sickle cell disease in children. It aims to reduce side effects and improve treatment outcomes.
Montreal, QuebecAges 6 months–18 years - NCT05925023Recruiting
Sirolimus for warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia after steroid failure
This trial studies sirolimus in adults with “warm” autoimmune hemolytic anemia (or Evans syndrome) when steroids have not worked or the anemia has returned. It may help control the immune attack on red blood cells, but there are specific safety checks for liver health and infections.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT06689800Recruiting
Family communication tool for kids getting transplant or cell therapy
This study looks at a family communication tool for children and teens getting stem cell transplants or cellular therapy. It helps families talk about treatment together.

Paris, FranceAges 40–60 - NCT06647979RecruitingPhase 1
Gene editing for severe sickle cell or thalassemia
This trial tests a new gene therapy that edits your own blood stem cells to help them make more fetal hemoglobin, which can prevent sickling and reduce the need for transfusions. It is for people with severe sickle cell disease or beta thalassemia who do not have a matched sibling donor.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for anemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 258 recruiting anemia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a anemia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a anemia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
