Recruiting studies near Pittsburgh
- NCT05281809RecruitingPhase 2
CAR T-cell therapy made locally for B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests a locally manufactured CAR T-cell treatment for certain B-cell lymphomas and B-ALL that have limited treatment options left. It may help your immune system attack cancer cells that carry the CD19 marker, potentially as a bridge to transplant for some patients.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–79 - NCT04269902RecruitingPhase 3
Early treatment check for high-risk CLL/SLL
This Phase 3 trial studies an early treatment approach for people with high-risk CLL or SLL who have not yet needed standard therapy. It aims to see if treating earlier can improve outcomes while keeping side effects manageable.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07342478RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two BTK inhibitors for CLL/SLL after prior treatment
This study compares two oral targeted therapies, rocbrutinib and pirtobrutinib, for people with CLL or SLL whose disease has come back or stopped responding after treatment with a covalent BTK inhibitor (like ibrutinib). The goal is to see which drug works better and has fewer side effects.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06564038RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD0486 alone or with other drugs for B-cell cancers
This trial tests a new drug called AZD0486, alone or with other medicines, for people with certain types of B-cell cancers that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see how safe and effective it is.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07271667RecruitingPhase 2
Study of emavusertib with zanubrutinib for CLL and other B-cell cancers
This trial combines an experimental drug, emavusertib, with zanubrutinib (a standard targeted therapy) for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or other B-cell cancers. It aims to see if the combination can improve response in patients who still have some disease despite taking zanubrutinib or whose disease has worsened on it.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07061951RecruitingPhase 2
Mirdametinib for relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL
This trial tests a drug called mirdametinib for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or not responded to at least two prior treatments, including a BTK inhibitor and a BCL2 inhibitor. The goal is to see if mirdametinib can help shrink the cancer or slow its growth.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07565220RecruitingPhase 1
Thiotepa-based stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests a new chemotherapy preparation (using thiotepa) before a stem cell transplant from a matched donor to treat blood cancers like leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. The goal is to improve survival while reducing severe side effects.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.

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.
