Buffalo, New YorkAges 1–25 - NCT03587272RecruitingPhase 2
Sibling bone marrow transplant to reduce treatment side effects
This study tests a way to do a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant from an HLA-matched sibling in children with sickle cell disease, aiming to lower the risk of serious side effects. You may be considered if you have certain past sickle complications and your body can safely handle the transplant plan.
New York, New YorkAges 2–25 - NCT03827694Recruiting
Testing a noninvasive scan for serious lung mold infections in kids
This study uses noninvasive breathing/relates imaging (MRI or CT) to help diagnose mold infections in the lungs in children and young adults. It may help doctors find these infections sooner, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
New York, New YorkAges 4 months–21 years - NCT03922893Recruiting
Finding inherited cancer gene markers in at-risk families
This study looks at DNA (genetic information) from people and families who may have an inherited risk for cancer. It aims to find new genetic markers that can help explain cancer risk and guide future care.
Commack, New YorkAges Any age - NCT03991169RecruitingPhase 4
Oral iron for children with chronic kidney disease
This trial studies whether taking iron by mouth can improve iron levels and anemia (low red blood cell counts) in children with chronic kidney disease. It may help reduce fatigue and support normal blood-making, by comparing different approaches for children who meet specific iron test results.
New York, New YorkAges 1–21 - NCT04060030RecruitingPhase 2
Leucovorin for young children with autism language difficulties
This Phase 2 study tests whether leucovorin (a vitamin-related medicine) can improve social communication and language in young children with autism. It also looks at safety and whether the results hold while the child stays on their usual therapies and routines.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 2.5 years–5 years - NCT04201704Recruiting
Less IV fluids for children after trauma
This trial studies whether giving children less fluid through a vein after serious injury helps them recover safely. Children are enrolled soon after arrival to the ICU so the team can compare outcomes between different fluid amounts.
New York, New YorkAges 6 months–15 years - NCT04293562RecruitingPhase 3
Testing targeted drugs plus chemo for newly diagnosed AML
This study compares standard chemotherapy to chemotherapy plus CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib in children and young adults newly diagnosed with AML. It aims to see whether adding these targeted treatments improves outcomes, especially for certain gene changes like FLT3.
Albany, New YorkAges Up to 21 years - NCT04322318RecruitingPhase 2
Study of combination chemotherapy for Wilms tumor in children
This Phase 2 trial tests combination chemotherapy for children with certain types of Wilms tumor—either newly diagnosed diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor or favorable Wilms tumor that has come back. The goal is to see how well the treatment controls the tumor and is tolerable for children.
Albany, New YorkAges Up to 30 years - NCT04338048Recruiting
Study for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
This study enrolls people who have been diagnosed with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), a genetic kidney condition that can cause kidney cysts. It aims to learn about this specific form of the disease so better care is possible for the right patients.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges Up to 18 years - NCT04380740RecruitingPhase 2
Longer vs shorter abatacept doses to prevent graft-versus-host disease
This trial tests whether giving abatacept for a longer or shorter time can better prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common complication after a stem cell transplant). If you’re having a planned unrelated donor transplant, the results may help reduce the risk or severity of transplant-related immune problems.
Rochester, New YorkAges 2 years+ - NCT04559425Recruiting
Registry study for immune-related serious slowed fetal heart rhythm
This study follows pregnancies where the baby has a serious immune-related heart rhythm problem (high-grade AV block). It collects information to better understand what happens during pregnancy and after delivery, especially when blood tests show anti-Ro/La antibodies.
New York, New YorkAges 16–50 - NCT04571658Recruiting
NEPTUNE Match study linking you to possible kidney research trials
This study is an add-on process that uses information from the NEPTUNE kidney study to see whether you might be able to join other kidney research trials. It may help connect eligible people with appropriate new treatment studies when they become available.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 1–80 - NCT04644016RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant for children and young adults with blood cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies using a cord blood transplant after finding it is risky enough that standard treatment may not be sufficient. It may help certain children and young adults with specific leukemia, lymphoma, and some non-cancer blood/immune or inherited disorders who do not have a well-matched donor available in time.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 21 years - NCT04649242RecruitingPhase 3

What taking part in a children 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.
