Recruiting studies
- NCT01853631RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for CD19-positive B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized form of immune therapy called CAR T cells that are designed to recognize CD19, a marker on certain B-cell cancers. It may help people with difficult-to-treat (recurrent or relapsed) B-cell lymphoma or leukemia (ALL/CLL).

CAR T therapy using blood immune cells for CD70 cancers
This trial tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) built from your own blood lymphocytes. It targets cancers that show a marker called CD70, aiming to slow or stop the cancer when other treatments didn’t work.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT03125577RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T treatment for blood cancers with certain markers
This trial tests a combination CAR-T cell therapy for blood cancers that show specific markers (like CD19 or CD20) on tumor cells. It may help by using the patient’s immune cells to better find and attack the cancer.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 6 months–75 years - NCT03294954RecruitingPhase 1
GD2 CAR plus IL-15 modified cells for children with neuroblastoma
This early-phase trial tests an immune-cell treatment made from the child’s own cells, designed to attack neuroblastoma. It aims to help children whose cancer has come back or did not respond to standard treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 1–21 - NCT03222674RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T treatment for acute myeloid leukemia in children and adults
This trial tests a lab-made immune cell treatment (CAR T cells) that targets specific markers on acute myeloid leukemia cells. It aims to control the leukemia, but it also involves close monitoring because it is an early-phase study.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 2–75 - NCT03226704Enrolling by invitation
Leukapheresis to prepare CAR cell therapy
This trial collects white blood cells through a procedure called leukapheresis to help make CAR or other adoptive cell therapies. It’s for people with certain cancers who are not in remission (or are at high risk of relapse) and can meet health and lab requirements.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–65 - NCT02315599Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up for delayed side effects after gene-cell therapy
This study checks people for delayed side effects after receiving gene-based cell therapy from the NIH. It helps doctors learn what problems may happen later and how to monitor them safely.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–99 - NCT02473757Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up program for adults previously treated with CAR T
This is a follow-up study for people age 18 or older who previously took part in a CAR T-cell gene therapy trial. It helps researchers check your health over time after that treatment and supports long-term safety and outcomes tracking.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00068003Enrolling by invitation
Harvesting Cancer Cells for Experimental Treatment
This trial collects immune cells from cancer patients or healthy volunteers to develop new experimental cancer treatments. Researchers will take a sample of your tumor or blood cells, grow them in the lab, and study how to use them to fight your cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07403097RecruitingPhase 1
CD19 CAR-T therapy for refractory lupus
This trial tests whether a personalized cell therapy called CD19 CAR-T can help people with hard-to-treat lupus (SLE). The treatment uses your own immune cells that have been modified to attack faulty B cells, which are involved in lupus. It is for patients who have moderate to severe disease despite trying multiple standard treatments.
ChongqingAges 5 years+ - NCT07411599RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-NK cell therapy plus cetuximab for belly-spread colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new cell therapy (CAR-NK cells given directly into your belly and a vein) combined with a targeted drug (cetuximab) for colorectal cancer that has spread mainly to the lining of your belly. It aims to see if this treatment can shrink tumors and help people who have run out of standard chemotherapy options.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07425483RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using immune cells (CAR-NK cells) to fight pancreatic cancer that has spread or come back. It may be an option if standard treatments have stopped working, were not tolerated, or were refused.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07428993RecruitingPhase 2
CAR T-Cell Therapy for High-Risk Osteosarcoma
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called B7-H3 CAR T cells for children and young adults with high-risk osteosarcoma that hasn't spread or worsened after standard chemotherapy. The treatment uses your own immune cells that are modified to attack a protein (B7-H3) found on cancer cells.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT07444307RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for hard-to-treat lupus
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy for people with severe lupus that hasn't improved with standard treatments. The therapy uses specially designed immune cells to target and destroy cells causing the disease.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–65 - NCT07453095RecruitingPhase 2
Glofitamab for mantle cell lymphoma after CAR T-cell therapy
This trial tests a new drug called glofitamab for people with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) whose cancer did not respond or came back after CAR T-cell therapy. Glofitamab is a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight the cancer.
AlessandriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07454226Recruiting
Drug combo for Ph-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia
This trial tests a combination of targeted drugs (ABL/JAK inhibitors) with chemotherapy and venetoclax for people with a type of leukemia called Ph-like ALL. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for car?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 787 recruiting car 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 car 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 car 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.
