This study collects and stores umbilical cord blood at birth so it can be used later for transplant. It also involves blood and cord blood testing to check for infections and key matching features.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 12 months–30 years - NCT03509961RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing total body radiation for children with leukemia transplants
This study looks at whether some children and young adults with B-ALL can safely get a transplant without total body irradiation (TBI), based on special leukemia test results. It’s meant to help lower radiation-related risks while keeping leukemia control strong.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT06938867RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SNIPR001 for resistant gut bacteria before stem cell transplant
This study tests an experimental oral medicine called SNIPR001. It is designed to reduce resistant E. coli bacteria in the gut before your stem cell transplant, possibly lowering the risk of infection.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT03394365RecruitingPhase 3
Tabelecleucel for EBV-related lymphoma after transplant treatment failure
This trial tests tabelecleucel, an immune therapy, for people whose EBV-associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) did not respond to rituximab and/or chemotherapy. It may help your immune system better control EBV-driven lymphoma after a transplant.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04293562RecruitingPhase 3
Testing targeted drugs plus chemo for newly diagnosed AML
This study compares standard chemotherapy to chemotherapy plus CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib in children and young adults newly diagnosed with AML. It aims to see whether adding these targeted treatments improves outcomes, especially for certain gene changes like FLT3.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 21 years - NCT04098445Recruiting
Study of lung injury in children after stem cell transplant
This study follows children and teens who get a stem cell transplant to learn how lung problems develop over time. Your participation could help doctors better predict, prevent, and manage lung injury after transplant.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 24 years - NCT04678427Recruiting
Exercise program for kids and young adults in stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program (“TEAM Me”) can improve movement and mobility during and after a blood stem cell transplant in young people with cancer. It may help reduce stiffness and weakness so you can move more comfortably during treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 6–29 - NCT04022239RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bendamustine to prevent transplant immune complications
This early-phase study tests whether giving the drug bendamustine (with or without another chemo drug) can lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. GVHD is an immune reaction where the donor’s cells attack your body. If it works and is safe, it could improve outcomes after transplant.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT04047628RecruitingPhase 3
MS patients with active relapsing disease comparing two treatment plans
This Phase 3 study compares the best standard MS treatment (chosen by your doctors) versus an approach called autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) for people with highly active, treatment-resistant relapsing multiple sclerosis. It aims to see which option controls MS disease activity better and keeps you safer over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18–55 - NCT04708054RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Venetoclax with busulfan chemo for high-risk AML or MDS
This study tests whether adding venetoclax to a specific busulfan-based chemotherapy plan improves outcomes for people with high-risk AML or MDS. It mainly targets patients whose leukemia/marrow disease still has high-risk features or measurable disease after initial treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT05681026Recruiting
Yoga support program during stem cell transplant
This study tests a culturally tailored inpatient yoga therapy program for people having a stem cell transplant for cancer. It aims to see whether yoga can help patients feel better and cope while they stay in the hospital.

Letermovir to prevent CMV after stem cell transplant in kids
This trial tests whether the medicine letermovir can prevent a common virus (CMV) from coming back after an allogeneic stem cell transplant in children. It may help lower the risk of CMV infection during the vulnerable period right after transplant.
Houston, TexasAges 2–18 - NCT06022939RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemo plus stem cell transplant to chemo alone for AL amyloidosis
This study tests whether adding a stem cell transplant to standard chemotherapy (Dara-VCD) works better than chemotherapy alone for people newly diagnosed with AL amyloidosis. It aims to find the best way to control the disease and improve outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06639854Recruiting
CMV immunity test to guide antiviral prevention after transplant
This trial uses a blood test to measure your immune system's ability to fight CMV, a common virus after transplant. The results will help your doctors decide if you can safely stop taking the antiviral medication letermovir earlier to avoid unnecessary side effects.

What taking part in a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation 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.
