Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT06163430RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MK-4208 for chronic myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new pill that may help people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) when other treatments have stopped working or caused side effects. It might offer another option for controlling the disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06994676RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CBX-250 for advanced myeloid leukemias
This study tests an experimental drug, CBX-250, for people with certain advanced blood cancers (like AML) that have not responded to standard treatments or have returned. The drug works only for people who have a specific genetic marker (HLA-A*02:01). The goal is to see if it is safe and how well it works.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT06423911RecruitingPhase 3
Study of olverembatinib for people with chronic phase CML
This study tests a new targeted drug called olverembatinib for people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that has stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if the drug can control the leukemia with fewer side effects.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06222580RecruitingPhase 1
Combination of two targeted drugs for resistant FLT3-mutated AML
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, SNDX-5613 and gilteritinib, for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. It is for those with an FLT3 gene mutation plus another specific genetic change like NPM1 or MLL. The study aims to see if this two-drug approach works better when used together.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05031897RecruitingPhase 2
Haplo transplant with reduced donor mismatch and radiation
This trial tests a special bone marrow/stem cell transplant approach using a partially matched family donor, along with conditioning treatment that involves radiation. It aims to help treat certain blood cancers by replacing damaged blood-forming cells with new ones from the donor.
Philadephia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06001788RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new drug combination called ziftomenib for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Researchers will check how safe it is and what side effects happen.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05735184RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib with AML medicines for NPM1- or KMT2A-mutated leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and tolerable ziftomenib is when combined with standard AML medicines (like venetoclax and azacitidine, and other chemo options) in people with AML. It’s for AML patients who have specific genetic changes (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement) and helps doctors find the best, safest dose plan.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05554406RecruitingPhase 2
New drug therapy for high-risk AML
This trial is testing new drug combinations for people with newly diagnosed, high-risk AML who have not yet started treatment. It aims to find more effective therapies for this aggressive form of leukemia.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18–59 - 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.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 40–75 - NCT04925479RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing asciminib dosing and safety for teen CML patients
This early-phase study tests the right dose and safety of asciminib in children and teens with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). It may help if your current or last CML medicine (a TKI) did not work well or caused side effects.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–17 - NCT07464951RecruitingPhase 1
CART123 cells with or without ruxolitinib for AML
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CART123) alone or with a drug called ruxolitinib for children and young adults with AML that has come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help destroy leukemia cells.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–29 years - NCT06824168RecruitingPhase 2
Quizartinib maintenance for FLT3-ITD AML in remission
This trial tests two different doses of an oral targeted pill called quizartinib (a FLT3 inhibitor) to keep AML with a FLT3-ITD mutation in remission after initial chemo. If you are in first complete remission and haven't had a transplant, this might be an option to lower the chance of relapse.
Easton, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07223814RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug with standard chemo for AML
This trial adds an experimental drug called bleximenib to the usual chemotherapy for people newly diagnosed with AML who have certain genetic changes (NPM1 or KMT2A). The goal is to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07437950RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing treatment lengths for venetoclax in older adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia
This study tests whether a shorter or longer course of the drug venetoclax works better for older adults with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not healthy enough for intensive chemotherapy. The goal is to find the best treatment duration to control the cancer while reducing side effects.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 60 years+ - NCT03970096RecruitingPhase 2
Reduce graft-versus-host disease after stem cell transplant
This Phase 2 study tests ways to lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after an allogeneic stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It is for people with acute leukemia or MDS who are going to receive intensive conditioning therapy, aiming to improve safety while keeping the transplant effective.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 1–60 - NCT06317649RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax with hypomethylating agents for older or unfit adults with FLT3-mutated AML
This trial tests a combination of medicines (venetoclax and a hypomethylating agent) for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have a FLT3 mutation. It may be an option for older adults or those who cannot tolerate intensive chemotherapy.
Allentown, 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+ - NCT06529731RecruitingPhase 2
Interferon-Gamma and Donor Cells for Relapsed Leukemia After Transplant
This trial tests combining a protein called interferon-gamma with an infusion of donor white blood cells to treat AML or MDS that returned after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination helps the donor cells attack the cancer more effectively.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06672146RecruitingPhase 2
New treatments for AML with an IDH2 mutation
This trial tests new treatments for people with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has a change in the IDH2 gene. It aims to find a better option for those who cannot have standard high-dose chemotherapy.
Danville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06917911RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two drug additions to standard chemotherapy for a type of acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests whether adding venetoclax or gemtuzumab ozogamicin to the usual chemotherapy helps people with a specific genetic type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) respond better. It may improve chances of remission.
Danville, PennsylvaniaAges 18–59 - NCT04065399RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing revumenib for relapsed acute leukemia with certain gene changes
This trial tests revumenib, a targeted medicine, to treat acute leukemia that has come back or hasn’t fully gone away. It may help people whose leukemia has specific gene changes (like KMT2A or NPM1) by trying to better control the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4 weeks+ - NCT04771130RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of BGB-11417 for blood cancers
This early-phase study tests BGB-11417 in people with certain bone-marrow (blood) cancers such as AML, MDS, or MDS/MPN. The goal is to find out how the medicine works and whether it can control the cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07007312RecruitingPhase 3
Ziftomenib plus standard chemo for certain AML patients
This trial tests a new drug, ziftomenib, added to standard chemotherapy for adults with untreated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have specific gene changes (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement). It aims to see if the combination works better than standard treatment alone.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06652438RecruitingPhase 3

What taking part in a chronic myeloid 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.
