Recruiting studies
- NCT06398457RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Darzalex Before Stem Cell Transplant for High-Risk Graft Failure
This trial tests giving a drug called Darzalex Faspro before the usual desensitization and a stem cell transplant for people at high risk of graft failure due to donor-specific antibodies. The goal is to prevent the transplant from failing.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05320198RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing DISC-0974 for anemia in myelofibrosis or MDS
This trial tests an investigational drug called DISC-0974 for people with myelofibrosis or certain types of MDS who have low red blood cell counts (anemia). The goal is to see if this treatment can help improve anemia and reduce the need for blood transfusions.

Cord blood transplant with chemo and radiation for high-risk blood cancers
This trial tests a cord blood transplant after a reduced-intensity chemotherapy and radiation regimen for patients with high-risk blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or MDS. The goal is to see if this approach can help destroy cancer cells and restore healthy blood cells.

Madison, WisconsinAges 7 months–21 years - NCT04256317RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Azacitidine pills with or without venetoclax for certain blood cancers
This study tests whether a pill form of azacitidine (ASTX030) helps people with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), CMML, or AML. Some groups may also receive venetoclax; the goal is better blood cancer control for people who aren’t good candidates for intensive chemotherapy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04187703RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing azacitidine and decitabine for bone marrow cancers
This early-phase study tests whether combining two “epigenetic” medicines—azacitidine and decitabine—can improve outcomes for certain bone marrow cancers. It may help if you have a type of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or MDS/MPN overlap that is expected to be sensitive to these medicines.

Chemo, radiation, and donor transplant for older adults with high-risk AML
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (FLAG-Ida) followed by low-dose total body radiation and a stem cell transplant from a donor. It is for people age 60 and older with newly diagnosed high-risk blood cancers, aiming to improve outcomes with a less intense transplant preparative regimen.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07071155RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Momelotinib with a hypomethylating agent for certain blood cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, momelotinib and a hypomethylating agent, for people with certain slow-growing blood cancers. If you have a diagnosis like chronic myelomonocytic leukemia or chronic neutrophilic leukemia and have an enlarged spleen, this study might be exploring a new treatment option for you.

Danvatirsen plus venetoclax for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called danvatirsen, first alone and then with venetoclax, for people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05584761RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cord blood stem cells plus azacitidine for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests whether adding donated cord blood stem cells to azacitidine can improve outcomes for people with advanced MDS, CMML-2, or a certain type of AML. It may help by giving the treatment a stronger chance to control abnormal blood-forming cells.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT05384691RecruitingPhase 2
Luspatercept for anemia in lower-risk MDS not needing transfusions
This Phase 2 trial studies whether luspatercept can improve anemia in people with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who do not currently need red-blood-cell transfusions. It’s also looking to see if the benefit is similar whether or not you have ring sideroblasts.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06206174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of TGRX-814 for blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called TGRX-814 for people with certain blood cancers like non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndromes. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03999723RecruitingPhase 2
Test azacitidine with vitamin C to improve DNA changes
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining azacitidine (a standard blood cancer medicine) with vitamin C helps improve disease control by changing DNA activity in high-risk blood cancers. It may be an option if you have certain types of higher-risk MDS, CMML, or low-blast AML and can meet safety requirements.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06532084RecruitingPhase 2
Sorafenib to prevent relapse after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether the drug sorafenib can prevent blood cancer from returning after a stem cell transplant. It is for people who had a special combination of chemotherapy (bendamustine and cyclophosphamide) during their transplant and are at high risk for relapse.

This trial tests whether taking ivosidenib as a maintenance drug (to keep the cancer in remission) works better than standard care for patients with IDH1-mutated AML or high-risk MDS who cannot undergo a bone marrow transplant. Ivosidenib is a targeted drug that blocks a specific mutation found in your cancer.
