Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–80 - NCT05947851RecruitingPhase 3
Nemtabrutinib plus venetoclax versus standard add-on therapy
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding nemtabrutinib to venetoclax works better than the usual next treatment approach (venetoclax plus rituximab) in people with relapsed or treatment-resistant CLL/SLL. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds after at least one prior therapy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06904066RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized T cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a treatment that takes your own immune cells, modifies them to attack cancer cells, and gives them back to you. It is for people with certain blood cancers who have specific gene changes.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07342478RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two BTK inhibitors for CLL/SLL after prior treatment
This study compares two oral targeted therapies, rocbrutinib and pirtobrutinib, for people with CLL or SLL whose disease has come back or stopped responding after treatment with a covalent BTK inhibitor (like ibrutinib). The goal is to see which drug works better and has fewer side effects.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02473757Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up program for adults previously treated with CAR T
This is a follow-up study for people age 18 or older who previously took part in a CAR T-cell gene therapy trial. It helps researchers check your health over time after that treatment and supports long-term safety and outcomes tracking.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00923442Enrolling by invitation
Study of blood cancers’ biology using stored or new tissue
This trial studies how different blood cancers and early (pre-cancer) blood conditions work, using tumor/blood tissue samples. It may help researchers learn more about disease biology for future treatments, with little to no extra risk if samples come from routine care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–120 - NCT00001529Recruiting
Bone marrow cell selection method study for transplants
This study tests improved ways to select and collect bone marrow cells from healthy donors for use in transplants. Researchers are looking for healthy volunteers to donate cells that may help people who need bone marrow transplants.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–60 - NCT01087333Recruiting
Share blood samples to help study blood cancers and treatments
This study collects human samples (like blood or other specimens) to learn more about hairy cell leukemia and other leukemias. It also helps researchers develop new lab-made immune-based medicines for cancer treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05645107RecruitingPhase 3
XEMBIFY plus usual care to prevent infections
