Recruiting studies near Boston
- NCT06849713RecruitingPhase 2
New combination treatments for CLL or SLL
This trial tests two different combinations of targeted drugs for people with CLL or SLL who have not had prior treatment for their disease. The goal is to see if these combinations are safe and effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT03219450RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized vaccine for early-stage, treatment-free CLL
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized cancer vaccine made from each patient’s CLL (“neoantigens”) plus a medicine called poly-ICLC to help the immune system learn to recognize the cancer. It is designed for people who have CLL but are currently not needing treatment, to see if it’s safe and may help keep the disease under control.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01804686RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term ibrutinib follow-up with or without nivolumab
This study looks at how safe and effective ibrutinib is over the long term, either alone or together with nivolumab. You may join if you are already in an earlier ibrutinib study and your care team feels staying on ibrutinib is worth the risk.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06043674RecruitingPhase 2
Glofitamab alone or with other drugs for Richter's transformation
This trial tests a drug called glofitamab, alone or combined with other drugs, for people whose chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) has changed into a faster-growing lymphoma (Richter's transformation). The goal is to see how well these treatments work and which combination might be best.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT00131014Recruiting
Building a family tumor and genetics bank for blood cancers
This study collects and stores tumor/tissue information and family medical history from people with certain blood cancers. It aims to help researchers understand why these illnesses may run in families and use genetic clues for future research.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03104491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Inotuzumab after transplant for CD22-positive leukemia
This trial studies inotuzumab ozogamicin, a leukemia-targeting medicine, given after an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It’s for people with CD22-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to help prevent relapse and improve outcomes after transplant.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 16–75 - NCT04895436RecruitingPhase 2
Oral venetoclax plus IV obinutuzumab after prior CLL treatment
This trial tests whether adding oral venetoclax together with an IV antibody called obinutuzumab can control CLL when the disease comes back after a specific prior treatment. It also looks closely at side effects to see what changes in “disease activity” and safety to expect.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03824483RecruitingPhase 2
Testing three drugs for CLL, SLL, or mantle cell lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax together in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). It aims to shrink cancer and improve control of the disease, especially when treatment choices are limited.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03666000RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a CD19 CAR T cell treatment for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and best dose of a CD19 CAR T cell therapy (azer-cel) in people whose B-cell blood cancer has returned or did not respond to treatment. It may help people with relapsed/refractory B-ALL or certain aggressive or large B-cell lymphomas, including after or before prior CAR T treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04028531Recruiting
Understanding chronic lymphocytic leukemia in clinic patients
This study aims to learn more about chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and closely related conditions. It may help researchers better understand who gets CLL and how it behaves over time, which can improve future care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05544019RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an investigational drug for mature B-cell cancers
This early (Phase 1) study tests SGR-1505, an experimental treatment, in people with certain mature B-cell cancers. It’s mainly designed to see how the drug works in the body and to check safety, and it may offer an option if standard treatments aren’t enough.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05010005RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ruxolitinib plus duvelisib for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and effective ruxolitinib plus duvelisib are in adults with certain types of mature T-cell lymphomas. You may be considered if your lymphoma has come back or worsened despite prior treatment, and the study checks whether this pill combination can help control the disease.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05168930RecruitingPhase 2
Zanubrutinib plus venetoclax for relapsed CLL or SLL
This Phase 2 study tests how well zanubrutinib (a targeted pill) combined with venetoclax (another targeted pill) works for adults with CLL/SLL that came back or progressed after prior treatment. It may help by stopping cancer cells through two different pathways, aiming to shrink disease and improve blood counts.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Jamaica Plain, MassachusettsAges 40–75 - NCT06428019RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing drug combinations for untreated CLL or SLL
This trial tests two different drug combinations (venetoclax with obinutuzumab or with acalabrutinib) to see how they affect the risk of tumor lysis syndrome in people with untreated CLL or SLL. It may help find the safest and most effective way to start treatment.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05602363RecruitingPhase 1
Docirbrutinib for CLL or lymphoma after prior treatments
This Phase 1 study tests docirbrutinib, a targeted pill treatment, in people with CLL/SLL or certain other B-cell lymphomas that have come back or didn’t respond to earlier therapy. The goal is to see whether it’s safe and whether it can control the disease after standard treatments have failed.

What taking part in a chronic lymphocytic leukemia 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.
