Camden, New JerseyAges 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.

Newark, DelawareAges 18 years+ - NCT02677064Recruiting
Study on barriers to stem cell transplant for acute leukemia
This study looks at what makes it hard for people with acute leukemia or related blood cancers to get a stem cell transplant. It aims to find ways to help more people get this treatment.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18–80 - NCT05554393RecruitingPhase 2
Treating intermediate-risk AML in younger adults
This trial compares three different drug combinations for younger adults (18-59) with intermediate-risk AML. You will be assigned to one of three groups: standard chemotherapy (cytarabine + daunorubicin), that same chemotherapy plus venetoclax, or venetoclax combined with azacitidine.
