Avapritinib for children with relapsed or resistant CBF-AML and KIT mutation
This trial tests a targeted drug called avapritinib in children and teens with a specific type of leukemia (CBF-AML) that has a KIT gene change and has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if avapritinib is safe and effective for these patients.

Study of thinking changes in young people during cancer treatment
This study looks at how thinking and memory may change in children and young adults after a new cancer diagnosis, especially around chemotherapy. It may help doctors better understand and track brain-related side effects early.
CopenhagenAges 7–29 - NCT06367725Recruiting
Dexamethasone in childhood ALL and bone health
This study looks at how the body processes a steroid medicine called dexamethasone in children with ALL, and how it might affect bone strength.
Aalborg, AalborgAges 1–17 - NCT05963971Recruiting
Bilingual online program to prevent weight gain in childhood leukemia
This trial tests a bilingual, online program to help children and teens who have ALL (a type of leukemia) stay at a healthy weight during the maintenance phase of treatment. It may help lower the chance of gaining too much weight while on chemotherapy.
New York, New YorkAges 5–21 - NCT05978141Recruiting
T-cell lymphoma registry study
This study creates a registry for people with certain T-cell or NK-cell lymphomas. It collects health information and tumor samples to learn more about these diseases and improve future treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07705178Recruiting
MRI study of heart and lung health after childhood cancer
This study uses MRI scans to look at the heart and lungs of childhood cancer survivors to see if chemotherapy caused any long-term changes. It may help doctors better understand and manage late effects after treatment for leukemia or lymphoma.
ErlangenAges 3 years+ - NCT06649253Recruiting
CD9 Gene and Relapse in Childhood B-ALL Study
This study looks at how a gene called CD9 might affect relapse in children with B-ALL. It involves extra blood or bone marrow tests to understand why some children relapse.
AngersAges birth–17 years - NCT07325305Recruiting
Exercise to protect muscle in childhood leukemia
This trial tests whether starting physical activity and exercise early in treatment can help children with leukemia prevent muscle loss and reduce frailty. It involves wearing a Fitbit to track activity and may help kids stay stronger during and after treatment.
