Macquarie UniversityAges 18 years+ - NCT07520006RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
NX-5948 With Other Drugs for B-cell Blood Cancers
This early-stage study tests a new drug called NX-5948, given alongside other cancer treatments, for adults with B-cell lymphomas and leukemias (including chronic lymphocytic leukemia, or CLL). The goal is to see if this combination helps control the disease, especially in patients whose cancer has come back or stopped responding to prior treatments.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05947851RecruitingPhase 3
Nemtabrutinib plus venetoclax versus standard add-on therapy
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding nemtabrutinib to venetoclax works better than the usual next treatment approach (venetoclax plus rituximab) in people with relapsed or treatment-resistant CLL/SLL. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds after at least one prior therapy.
Springdale, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06973187RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drugs for CLL or SLL after prior treatment
This trial tests a new drug (BGB-16673) against another drug (pirtobrutinib) for people with CLL or SLL that hasn't responded to or has come back after a prior BTK inhibitor treatment. The goal is to see which drug is more effective and safe.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06846671RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug for CLL or SLL
This trial tests a new investigational drug, BGB-16673, for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have already tried two types of treatments (BTK and BCL2 inhibitors). The goal is to see if this new drug works better than other available treatments chosen by the doctor.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07218341RecruitingPhase 4
Continuing pirtobrutinib for CLL or SLL patients
This trial continues treatment with the drug pirtobrutinib for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who are already in another study. It is not open to new patients.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05006716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for certain B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies the safest dose and then effectiveness of BGB-16673 in people with specific B-cell malignancies. It may help by targeting cancer cells in these blood cancers, especially after other treatments like BTK inhibitors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07774390Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after ibrutinib and venetoclax treatment
This study looks at the long-term safety and how well treatment is working in people with CLL who received a combination of ibrutinib plus venetoclax. By following participants over time, researchers hope to learn more about the lasting effects and benefits of this treatment approach.
MilanAges Any age - NCT07277231RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drug combinations for untreated CLL
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (sonrotoclax plus zanubrutinib) against another standard combination (venetoclax plus acalabrutinib) for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have not had treatment before. The goal is to see which combination works better.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221500RecruitingPhase 2
Study of NX-5948 for advanced CLL or SLL
This trial tests an experimental drug called NX-5948 for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or not responded to prior treatments. It's for those who have already tried a BTK inhibitor and a BCL-2 inhibitor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07763054Recruiting
Low-dose antifungal prevention for patients with low white blood cell counts
This trial tests a low dose of an antifungal medicine (liposomal amphotericin B) to prevent fungal infections in patients whose white blood cell counts are very low for more than a week. It may help patients who are at high risk for fungal infections and cannot take other antifungal drugs.
Hainan, HainanAges 18–75 - NCT06762431RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy plus lenalidomide for CLL
This trial tests a combination of two treatments—CAR T-cells (your own immune cells reprogrammed to attack cancer) and lenalidomide (a pill that boosts the immune system)—for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that has not responded to or returned after at least one prior treatment. It aims to see if this combination is safe and works better than either alone.
Vitebsk, Select A StateAges 18 years+ - NCT07194980RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a pill and CAR T-cell therapy for CLL/SLL
This study tests a combination of two treatments: a targeted pill (nemtabrutinib) and a special immune cell therapy (lisocabtagene maraleucel, or liso-cel) for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or has not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if giving the pill first helps the cell therapy work better.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06943872RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing new treatments for relapsed CLL or SLL
This study tests a combination of sonrotoclax plus obinutuzumab or rituximab versus the current standard venetoclax plus rituximab for people whose CLL or SLL has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see which approach helps keep the cancer from growing longer.
Laguna Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06136559RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Nemtabrutinib vs ibrutinib or acalabrutinib for untreated CLL/SLL
This trial tests a new drug, nemtabrutinib, against two standard treatments for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who haven't had treatment yet. The goal is to see if the new drug works better at controlling the disease.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06533579RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for CD19-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a new gene therapy treatment for people with certain types of leukemia or lymphoma that have the CD19 marker and have not responded to other treatments. The therapy uses a virus to deliver a gene to target and kill cancer cells.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chronic lymphocytic leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 203 recruiting chronic lymphocytic leukemia 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 chronic lymphocytic leukemia 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 chronic lymphocytic leukemia 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.
