We’re tracking 37 recruiting chronic lymphocytic leukemia studies with a site in California — including Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- 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.
Arroyo Grande, CaliforniaAges 40–75 - NCT05254743RecruitingPhase 3
Pirtobrutinib versus ibrutinib for CLL or SLL
This Phase 3 trial compares two oral medicines—pirtobrutinib and ibrutinib—in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who need treatment. It’s designed to see which drug works better and is easier to take, especially for people with a specific genetic change in the cancer (17p deletion).
Anaheim, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05131022RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NX-5948 for relapsed B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests NX-5948 in adults whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment works in different types of B-cell malignancies.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05006716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New treatment for blood cancers that have returned
This trial tests a new pill, tacabrutideg, for blood cancers that have returned or not improved after earlier treatments. It may work for patients who have already tried a type of targeted therapy called a BTK inhibitor.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04830137RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug NX-2127 for hard-to-treat B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early effectiveness of NX-2127 in adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers. If you qualify, you may receive a new targeted treatment because your cancer has returned or not responded to prior therapies.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Anaheim, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07302776RecruitingPhase 1
Stopping immune suppression after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether it's safe to stop one type of anti-rejection medication (tacrolimus) earlier than usual after a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. If you qualify, you may be able to reduce your long-term medication burden.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - 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.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07220187RecruitingPhase 3
Adding pirtobrutinib to usual treatment for newly diagnosed Richter transformation
This study tests whether adding a targeted drug called pirtobrutinib to the usual chemotherapy for Richter transformation can improve outcomes. It is a phase 3 trial, meaning it compares the new combination to the standard approach, and may help patients live longer or delay progression.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06528301RecruitingPhase 1
Trial of UB-VV111 with or without rapamycin for B-cell cancers
This trial tests a new therapy called UB-VV111, alone or with rapamycin, in people with certain types of lymphoma or leukemia that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if it's safe and effective.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04728893RecruitingPhase 2
Nemtabrutinib for blood cancers after prior treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests nemtabrutinib (MK-1026), an oral medicine, in people with certain blood cancers that have come back or didn’t respond to earlier treatments. It aims to see how well the drug works and whether it is safe.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03850574RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tuspetinib for relapsed or hard-to-treat AML
This early-phase study tests tuspetinib in people with AML that has come back or did not respond to treatment. The goal is to learn whether it is safe and tolerable, how the drug behaves in the body, and whether it shows signs of benefit.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+

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.

Common questions
- Are there chronic lymphocytic leukemia clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 37 recruiting chronic lymphocytic leukemia studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a chronic lymphocytic leukemia study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a chronic lymphocytic leukemia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New chronic lymphocytic leukemia studies open in California regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
