Recruiting studies
- NCT06465147RecruitingPhase 1
Cell therapy for hard-to-treat lupus (REACT-01)
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (CAR T-cells) to see if it can stop the immune system from attacking the body in severe lupus. It’s for people ages 2–30 whose lupus is not controlled by other treatments and who are willing to be treated at Seattle Children’s Hospital.

Testing tumor samples after BMS cell therapy and a second cancer
This trial offers testing of tumor samples for people who developed a new, different cancer after receiving a Bristol-Myers Squibb gene-modified cell therapy. The goal is to understand the genetics of that new cancer and see if it relates to the prior treatment.
Portland, OregonAges Any age - NCT06328777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing a new immune cell therapy for systemic sclerosis (scleroderma)
This trial tests a new treatment called CABA-201, which uses your own immune cells to target and calm the overactive immune system causing scleroderma. It aims to reduce symptoms and slow or stop the disease's progression.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–75 - NCT06297226RecruitingPhase 2
CAR T cell therapy for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new CAR T cell therapy (arlocabtagene autoleucel) that targets a protein called GPRC5D on myeloma cells. It is for people whose multiple myeloma has come back or is not responding after trying at least four different types of treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05722418RecruitingPhase 1
CRISPR-edited CAR-T for harder-to-treat myeloma
This Phase 1 study tests a lab-made immune cell therapy (CAR-T) made from a donor, with a CRISPR edit, for multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to find the safest way to give the treatment and see how well it can control the cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06193889RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3

Regenerative knee cell therapy for arthritis pain and swelling
This Phase 2 study tests a patient’s own (autologous) regenerative cell treatment to reduce knee pain and inflammation from osteoarthritis. It mainly looks at whether the treatment is safe and whether it can improve symptoms over time.
Grove City, PennsylvaniaAges 18–90 - NCT02844764RecruitingPhase 2
Cell therapy test for hip osteoarthritis pain and swelling
This trial tests an “autologous” regenerative cell treatment, meaning cells taken from you, to reduce hip osteoarthritis pain and inflammation. It checks safety first and looks for improvements in how you feel and move.
Grove City, PennsylvaniaAges 18–90 - NCT02844738RecruitingPhase 2
Cell therapy for shoulder osteoarthritis pain and inflammation
This trial tests a treatment using your own (autologous) regenerative cells to reduce pain and inflammation from shoulder osteoarthritis. It may help people with long-lasting shoulder pain, but you must meet several health and medication timing requirements.
Grove City, PennsylvaniaAges 18–90 - NCT06066346RecruitingPhase 2
Talquetamab for multiple myeloma after CAR T-cell therapy
This study tests a drug called talquetamab for people with multiple myeloma who have already had a type of immunotherapy called CAR T-cell therapy (ide-cel). The goal is to see if talquetamab can help control the cancer after the CAR T cells have had time to work.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06056102RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy to help highly sensitized kidney transplant patients
This trial tests whether a special immune cell treatment (CAR-T cells) can lower the antibodies that make it very hard for you to receive a kidney transplant. If it works, you might become eligible for a transplant sooner.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–65 - NCT04190862RecruitingPhase 1
Cell therapy for simple anal fistulas
This Phase 1 study tests whether a donated-cell treatment (given with a minor procedure) can help heal simple anal fistulas. It mainly focuses on safety first, but may also look at how well the fistula closes.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06027879Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Anti-viral T-cell therapy for stubborn viral infections after transplant
This trial tests a treatment using specially grown T-cells (a type of immune cell) to fight certain viruses that won't go away with standard medicines. It is for people who have had a stem cell or organ transplant, or who have a weak immune system, and who are struggling with adenovirus, CMV, or EBV infections.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–65 years - NCT05918523Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for people treated with REACT
This study checks long-term health outcomes in people who previously received a treatment called REACT for chronic kidney disease. It may help doctors understand how safe and effective REACT is over time.
Meridian, IdahoAges 30–80 - NCT05905328RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug to prevent and treat side effects of CAR T-cell therapy
This study tests an experimental drug, CTO1681, that may help prevent or treat cytokine release syndrome (CRS) — a common side effect of CAR T-cell therapy. It could make the recovery period safer and more comfortable.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05304208RecruitingPhase 1
Mesothelioma trial using immune cells plus surgery
This early-phase study tests a treatment that uses a patient’s immune cells (dendritic cell therapy) combined with surgery for epithelioid mesothelioma. It aims to help the immune system better recognize and attack the cancer after chemotherapy and before/around surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05237986Recruiting
Study brain and thinking effects after CAR T therapy in youth
This study looks at how CAR T-cell treatment affects thinking, learning, and day-to-day brain function in children and young adults with certain blood cancers. You (and a caregiver) may complete online testing so researchers can track these changes over time and whether support is needed.

CD123 CAR T-cell therapy for relapsed leukemia and related cancers
This early-phase study tests a lab-made immune therapy (CD123 CAR T cells) for children and young adults up to age 21 whose cancer has come back or didn’t respond to treatment. The goal is to see if these CAR T cells can find and attack cancer cells that carry a marker called CD123.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT02621021RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a treatment that uses your own immune cells, called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), to fight melanoma. Some participants also get a drug called pembrolizumab. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT07010263RecruitingPhase 3
AK112 for limited-stage small cell lung cancer after chemoradiation
This study tests a new drug called AK112 (a bispecific antibody that blocks both PD-1 and VEGF) as a consolidation treatment to help prevent your limited-stage small cell lung cancer from coming back after you've finished chemoradiation. It's for people whose cancer has not grown following concurrent chemotherapy and radiation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cell therapy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,068 recruiting cell therapy 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 cell therapy 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 cell therapy 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.
