Recruiting studies in Minnesota
- 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.
Coon Rapids, MinnesotaAges 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.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Saint Louis Park, MinnesotaAges 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.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 13–90 - 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.
Burnsville, MinnesotaAges 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.
Aitkin, MinnesotaAges 40–75 - NCT07321652RecruitingPhase 3
Sonrotoclax plus zanubrutinib for untreated CLL or SLL
This trial tests whether adding a new drug, sonrotoclax, to the standard treatment zanubrutinib works better for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who haven't had treatment before. It's for patients aged 65 and older who need therapy due to symptoms or blood cell issues.
Bemidji, MinnesotaAges 65 years+ - NCT03516617RecruitingPhase 2
Acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumab for early CLL/SLL
This Phase 2 trial studies whether acalabrutinib, and optionally adding obinutuzumab, can control early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It aims to see how well these treatments work and how safe they are in people who have not had prior treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04892277RecruitingPhase 1
CD19 CAR-T for adults with hard-to-treat B-cell cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a lab-made immune therapy (CD19 CAR-T) for adults whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond to treatment. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack cancer cells, but it is early research, so benefits and risks are still being defined.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Duluth, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05388006RecruitingPhase 2
Testing three medicines for Richter transformation in CLL/SLL
This Phase 2 trial studies acalabrutinib, venetoclax, and durvalumab together for Richter transformation (a more aggressive lymphoma) that developed from CLL or SLL. The goal is to improve how well treatment works and how long people can respond.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05512390RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug ABBV-319 in B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 trial studies ABBV-319 given by vein to see what side effects it causes and how the cancer activity changes in certain B-cell blood cancers. It may help people with relapsed or treatment-resistant disease by exploring new treatment options and better understanding how the drug moves through the body.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05805605RecruitingPhase 2
Low-intensity stem cell transplant with donor cells and blood-protection
This Phase 2 study tests a low-intensity bone marrow/stem cell transplant using a matched donor plus two medicines to help prevent the donor cells from attacking you. It aims to treat certain blood cancers—especially when standard treatment has not fully worked or when you are in remission but at higher risk.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 75 years - NCT05876923Recruiting
Exercise study for immune changes in indolent blood cancers
This study looks at how an exercise program may change parts of the immune system in people with slow-growing (indolent) non-Hodgkin lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL/SLL). It may help researchers understand which immune changes could be important for your condition.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–80 - NCT05091424RecruitingPhase 1
Mosunetuzumab with or without venetoclax for CLL
This Phase 1 study tests whether mosunetuzumab alone or with venetoclax is safe and effective for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that came back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help by controlling the CLL immune system response while also studying dosing and side effects.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06712810RecruitingPhase 1
Q702 for blood cancers and histiocytic disorders
This study tests an experimental pill called Q702 for people with certain blood cancers and related disorders (like histiocytoses, myelofibrosis, and lymphomas) that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if Q702 is safe and effective.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06876662RecruitingPhase 4
Continuing pirtobrutinib for CLL and lymphoma patients
This trial continues to give pirtobrutinib to people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or certain other lymphomas who were already in a previous study with this drug. It helps researchers keep track of long-term safety and how well the drug works over time.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 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.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03314974RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant study for blood cancers
This Phase 2 study tests a strong (myeloablative) stem cell transplant using donor stem cells (allogeneic transplant) for certain blood and bone marrow cancers. The goal is to see how well this approach works and whether it can improve outcomes for people who need transplant-level treatment.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 60 years - NCT05978141Recruiting

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.
