Recruiting studies near Philadelphia
- NCT05082519RecruitingPhase 2
Calorie restriction and exercise to improve leukemia treatment in young patients
This study tests whether a special diet (calorie restriction) and increased physical activity can make chemotherapy work better for young people with B-ALL. Participants will follow a monitored diet and exercise plan during their first month of treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 7–25 - NCT02646839Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing a gene-matched transplant approach for childhood leukemia
This trial studies a specific type of partially matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant in children with ALL, AML, or MDS. It looks at whether using certain immune system gene patterns (KIR) and measuring leftover disease after treatment can improve outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT07223021RecruitingPhase 3
Fludarabine dosing study for B-cell ALL
This study tests a different dose of the chemotherapy drug fludarabine before CAR T-cell therapy (tisagenlecleucel) for children and young adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The goal is to see if the new dose works better at helping the body accept the CAR T cells while keeping side effects manageable.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 year+ - NCT03959085RecruitingPhase 3
Inotuzumab plus chemotherapy for high-risk childhood leukemia
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding inotuzumab to standard post-induction chemotherapy improves outcomes for children and young teens with high-risk B-ALL, mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), or certain high-risk B-LLy. It may help by targeting leukemia cells more directly, but participation depends on specific age, lab results, and medical history rules.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 months–25 years - NCT04150497RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new cell therapy for CD22-positive leukemia
This trial tests UCART22, a new cell-based treatment, for people with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) that has the CD22 marker. It may help by attacking leukemia cells that carry CD22.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 15–50 - NCT03150693RecruitingPhase 3
New treatment for young adults with CD22-positive ALL
This Phase 3 trial tests adding inotuzumab ozogamicin to standard chemotherapy for newly diagnosed CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It may help more patients achieve remission and reduce the risk of the leukemia coming back, while also checking safety and tolerability.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–39 - NCT05674175RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test two engineered immune cell treatments for B-cell leukemia
This trial tests a combination of two different engineered immune cell therapies to treat B-ALL (a leukemia). It’s designed for young people whose disease has come back, is hard to treat, or didn’t respond well to similar cell therapies.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 29 years - NCT06173518RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for children with B-cell leukemia or lymphoma
This trial tests a CAR T-cell therapy that targets CD19 on cancer cells. It is for children whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma has come back or not responded to other treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–18 years - NCT03739814RecruitingPhase 2
Test inotuzumab, blinatumomab, and possibly ponatinib for CD22 ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of medicines (inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab), with or without ponatinib, for people with CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It aims to improve remission and control leukemia cells, including in the bone marrow.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT06395103RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zilovertamab vedotin for blood cancers and solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zilovertamab vedotin for children and young adults with certain blood cancers or solid tumors. The drug is designed to target and kill cancer cells, and the study will see if it is safe and effective.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 6 months–25 years - NCT04546399RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab with or without nivolumab for first relapse ALL
This study compares blinatumomab alone versus blinatumomab plus nivolumab in young people whose B-cell ALL has returned for the first time. It aims to see whether adding nivolumab improves control of the leukemia after relapse.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–30 - NCT06124157RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo for children with Ph+ or Ph-like B-ALL
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (dasatinib or imatinib) to a chemotherapy combination with blinatumomab works better for children and young adults with a specific genetic form of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The goal is to see if this approach can improve treatment outcomes for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive or ABL-class Ph-like B-ALL.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 year–46 years - NCT03509961RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing total body radiation for children with leukemia transplants
This study looks at whether some children and young adults with B-ALL can safely get a transplant without total body irradiation (TBI), based on special leukemia test results. It’s meant to help lower radiation-related risks while keeping leukemia control strong.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 1–25 - NCT05865301Recruiting
Outcomes after approved immunotherapy for young blood cancer patients
This study looks at the real-world results of treating certain B-cell blood cancers in children and young adults with commercially available immunotherapy. It may help doctors better understand how these treatments work for patients after relapse or when they need additional therapy.

What taking part in a b-cell acute lymphoblastic 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.
