Buffalo, New YorkAges Up to 10 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+ - NCT04293562RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemotherapy options for newly diagnosed AML in young patients
This trial compares standard chemotherapy with newer drug combinations (CPX-351 and gilteritinib) for children and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a type of blood cancer. It aims to find which treatment works better and who might benefit from targeted therapy based on specific genetic changes (FLT3 mutations).
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 6 months–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.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges Up to 30 years - NCT04263831RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Low-dose IL-2 to treat Crohn’s disease flare-ups
This trial tests a low dose of IL-2 to reduce inflammation and help control Crohn’s disease symptoms. It’s for people whose Crohn’s disease hasn’t responded to at least one standard treatment or who need steroids to stay under control.
New York, New YorkAges 12–80 - 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 - 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.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 6 months–15 years - 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 - NCT01073475Recruiting
Pregnancy and birth registry for community health research
This trial is a long-term registry that collects pregnancy and birth information in a community to help researchers study maternal and newborn health. It may help you and others by improving understanding of care and outcomes across many pregnancies.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - 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.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 12 months–25 years - 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 - NCT03465592RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Nivolumab after mismatched bone marrow transplant for sarcoma
This trial studies nivolumab (an immune treatment) in people with sarcoma who already had a partially mismatched bone marrow transplant. It may help the new immune system recognize and attack cancer, and researchers will also watch closely for side effects like GVHD (immune reaction after transplant) and autoimmune problems.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 1–40 - NCT03067181RecruitingPhase 3
Active surveillance and chemotherapy for germ cell tumors
This study looks at how to manage germ cell tumors in children and young adults using careful monitoring for some patients and chemotherapy for others. It aims to see whether these approaches can control the cancer while avoiding unnecessary treatment when possible.
The Bronx, New YorkAges Any age - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 12 months–30 years - NCT02402244Recruiting
Caring registry study for children and young people with cancer
This study keeps a careful record of children, teens, and young adults with cancer (and some related growths) and may follow them over time. It helps researchers better track outcomes and future contact so care can improve.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges Up to 25 years - 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.
Valhalla, New YorkAges Up to 21 years - NCT02310399Recruiting
Auditory brainstem implant for children without cochleae or hearing nerves
This study looks at whether an auditory brainstem implant (ABI) can help children hear sounds and develop listening/communication skills when the usual inner-ear hearing structures or hearing nerves are missing or not working. It may help some children who cannot benefit from a cochlear implant, but spoken language may not be the main outcome.

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.
