Recruiting studies in Tennessee
- 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.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 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.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 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.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 18–59 - NCT02646839Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing a gene-matched transplant approach for childhood leukemia
This trial studies a specific type of partially matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant in children with ALL, AML, or MDS. It looks at whether using certain immune system gene patterns (KIR) and measuring leftover disease after treatment can improve outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
Nashville, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04093570Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Extension study for people continuing ASTX727 from a prior trial
This study checks whether continuing ASTX727 for people who already benefited from it in an earlier Taiho study is safe and effective. It may be an option if you stayed on ASTX727 at the end of your parent study and your doctor felt it was helping you.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 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.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05702645Recruiting
Down syndrome long-term study after leukemia treatment
This study follows children and young adults with Down syndrome who have survived acute leukemia (ALL or AML) to learn about their longer-term health after treatment ends. It may help families and doctors understand what health problems to watch for and how to provide better follow-up care.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 6–39 - NCT06034275RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VIP943 for CD123-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called VIP943 for people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML), B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose cancer cells have a marker called CD123. It is for those who have tried all other treatments or cannot receive them.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05194397RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise plus NR supplement to boost fitness after stem-cell transplant
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program, plus an NR supplement, can improve fitness in young people who have had an allogeneic (donor) stem-cell transplant for certain blood cancers or bone marrow conditions. It’s meant to help with energy and physical ability while monitoring safety.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 10–30 - NCT03050268Recruiting
Study of childhood cancer risk in families
This study looks at inherited (family) risk for childhood cancers, including families with early cancers or known cancer risk conditions. It may help researchers understand why some children get cancer and improve future risk detection and care.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - 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.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 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.
Chattanooga, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - 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.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 18–59 - NCT05332054Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up after prior Caribou treatment
This study checks your health over time after you previously took a Caribou medicine (or got it through a special access program). It helps researchers learn what happens in the longer run after the treatment.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05101551RecruitingPhase 1
Talazoparib with chemotherapy for relapsed childhood AML
This Phase 1 study tests whether talazoparib combined with chemotherapy is safe and potentially effective for children and young adults whose leukemia has come back or did not respond. It focuses on finding the best way to give the treatment and watching for side effects.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04293562RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemotherapy options for newly diagnosed AML in young patients
This trial compares standard chemotherapy with newer drug combinations (CPX-351 and gilteritinib) for children and young adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a type of blood cancer. It aims to find which treatment works better and who might benefit from targeted therapy based on specific genetic changes (FLT3 mutations).
Chattanooga, TennesseeAges 6 months–21 years - NCT02074839RecruitingPhase 1
Oral AG-120 for advanced blood cancers with an IDH1 mutation
This Phase 1 study tests an oral medicine called AG-120 in adults with advanced blood cancers that have a specific IDH1 mutation. It also looks at safety and how the treatment works, with frequent blood, urine, and bone marrow samples.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+

What taking part in a leukemia, myeloid 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.
