DohaAges 3 months–14 years - NCT03937635RecruitingPhase 3
Lenalidomide and dexamethasone, with or without daratumumab
This phase 3 trial studies whether lenalidomide plus dexamethasone can prevent or delay progression of “high-risk smoldering” multiple myeloma, and whether adding daratumumab improves outcomes. It’s meant for people who are not yet showing symptoms, but whose lab and scan results suggest higher risk.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04061512RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Rituximab plus ibrutinib versus standard steroids plus rituximab
This trial compares two starting treatment plans for Waldenström’s macroglobulinaemia, testing whether one works better or causes fewer problems. It studies rituximab plus ibrutinib versus a standard mix of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (steroids).
BathAges 18 years+ - NCT04240054RecruitingPhase 2
Study drugs before transplant for myeloma with kidney problems
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a combination of anti-myeloma medicines given before stem cell transplant works well and is safe for people with multiple myeloma who also have kidney problems. It may help control the myeloma and prepare you for the transplant.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04341155RecruitingPhase 2
Dexamethasone treatment for brain toxoplasmosis in people with HIV
This Phase 2 trial studies whether dexamethasone (a strong anti-inflammatory steroid) helps treat brain toxoplasmosis in adults with HIV.

Selinexor plus low-dose steroid for hard-to-treat myeloma
This Phase 2 trial tests selinexor (a targeted anti-cancer medicine) plus low-dose dexamethasone to treat multiple myeloma that has not responded to many prior treatments. It compares selinexor combinations depending on what medicines you’ve already had, aiming to reduce myeloma activity and improve outcomes.
Pátrai, AchaiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04508790RecruitingPhase 2
Leflunomide plus pomalidomide with dexamethasone for relapsed myeloma
This trial studies whether a combination of three medicines (leflunomide, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone) can better treat multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding. It may help people who are not good candidates for transplant and who have measurable disease.

Checking treatment for multiple myeloma after MRD becomes negative
This study looks at whether people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma can safely continue or adjust treatment after they reach “MRD-negative,” meaning very low signs of disease in the bone marrow. It may help reduce the chance of relapse while avoiding unnecessary treatment for some patients.
ÅlesundAges 18–75 - NCT04545242RecruitingPhase 4
Dexamethasone for severe lung failure from infections on ventilators
This trial studies whether dexamethasone (a steroid medicine) improves outcomes in adults who have sudden, severe breathing failure caused by an infection while they are on a breathing machine. It may help reduce inflammation in the lungs during critical illness.
Terrassa, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04559425Recruiting
Registry study for immune-related serious slowed fetal heart rhythm
This study follows pregnancies where the baby has a serious immune-related heart rhythm problem (high-grade AV block). It collects information to better understand what happens during pregnancy and after delivery, especially when blood tests show anti-Ro/La antibodies.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 16–50 - NCT04776395RecruitingPhase 2
Iberdomide to treat intermediate or high-risk smoldering myeloma
This Phase 2 study tests iberdomide alone or with low-dose dexamethasone in people with intermediate- or high-risk “smoldering” multiple myeloma. The goal is to see if the treatment can control or delay progression to active myeloma.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04862468RecruitingPhase 2
Dexamethasone after clot removal to calm leg swelling
This Phase 2 study tests whether a steroid medicine called dexamethasone can reduce inflammation after a clot (DVT) is removed in the thigh/behind-knee veins. If it works, it may help improve recovery and reduce ongoing leg problems after the procedure.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–89 - NCT04891289RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin with a chemotherapy pump for bile duct cancer
This Phase 2 study tests gemcitabine plus oxaliplatin chemotherapy, and whether adding a chemotherapy pump (with floxuridine and dexamethasone) delivered to the liver improves outcomes. It is for people whose intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cannot be removed with surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04915248RecruitingPhase 2
Study of daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone for plasmablastic lymphoma
This trial tests how well a combination of daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone works in people with plasmablastic lymphoma that has returned or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to shrink measurable tumors and improve outcomes, including for some people living with HIV.
AnconaAges 18 years+ - NCT05120076RecruitingPhase 3
Dexamethasone during surgery to reduce hip surgery pain and nausea
This trial tests whether a single steroid medicine called dexamethasone given around the time of surgery can reduce pain and nausea after a periacetabular osteotomy. It may help you feel more comfortable in the first days after surgery, depending on your medical history.

- How do I know if I qualify for a dexamethasone trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a dexamethasone trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
