Recruiting studies near Columbus
- 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.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07437950RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing treatment lengths for venetoclax in older adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia
This study tests whether a shorter or longer course of the drug venetoclax works better for older adults with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not healthy enough for intensive chemotherapy. The goal is to find the best treatment duration to control the cancer while reducing side effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 60 years+ - NCT03959085RecruitingPhase 3
Inotuzumab plus chemotherapy for high-risk childhood leukemia
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding inotuzumab to standard post-induction chemotherapy improves outcomes for children and young teens with high-risk B-ALL, mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), or certain high-risk B-LLy. It may help by targeting leukemia cells more directly, but participation depends on specific age, lab results, and medical history rules.
Columbus, OhioAges 12 months–25 years - NCT07734038RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax and Zanubrutinib for CLL and SLL
This study tests a combination of two oral medications, venetoclax and zanubrutinib, for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective, either as a first treatment or after a previous treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05886049RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a menin drug with standard chemo for newly diagnosed AML
This early-phase study tests a menin inhibitor drug (SNDX-5613) combined with standard induction chemotherapy (daunorubicin plus cytarabine) in newly diagnosed AML with specific gene changes (NPM1 or FLT3 status, or MLL/KMT2A or NUP98). It may help patients whose AML has these genetic features respond better to intensive treatment.

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04830137RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug NX-2127 for hard-to-treat B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early effectiveness of NX-2127 in adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers. If you qualify, you may receive a new targeted treatment because your cancer has returned or not responded to prior therapies.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04049539RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vyxeos for AML that stays after initial chemotherapy
This trial tests whether Vyxeos (a type of chemotherapy) can treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that did not fully go away after standard induction (“7+3”) chemotherapy. It targets people whose leukemia is still present in the bone marrow and need a stronger “re-induction” treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT07356245RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib after stem cell transplant for T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests whether taking ruxolitinib after a stem cell transplant can help prevent T-cell lymphoma from coming back. It is for patients whose lymphoma is in remission (partial or complete) after their transplant.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06876649RecruitingPhase 4
Long-term safety study of Pirtobrutinib
This trial is for people who are already in a Lilly study taking pirtobrutinib. It looks at the long-term safety of the drug by continuing to monitor you.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06876662RecruitingPhase 4
Continuing pirtobrutinib for CLL and lymphoma patients
This trial continues to give pirtobrutinib to people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or certain other lymphomas who were already in a previous study with this drug. It helps researchers keep track of long-term safety and how well the drug works over time.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06708897RecruitingPhase 1
Study of lonitoclax for returning B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug, lonitoclax, in people with certain B-cell blood cancers that have come back or not responded to earlier treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help control the disease.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07685717RecruitingPhase 2
Pirtobrutinib for older adults with CLL
This trial tests a new pill, pirtobrutinib, for people 75 or older with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have never had treatment before. The goal is to see if it helps control the disease with manageable side effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 75 years+ - NCT03533816RecruitingPhase 1
Gamma delta T-cell infusion after stem cell transplant
This early-phase study tests giving a special immune-cell treatment after an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant, plus a medication given after transplant to help the new immune system work better. It may help prevent or treat cancer returning after transplant.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT04269902RecruitingPhase 3
Early treatment check for high-risk CLL/SLL
This Phase 3 trial studies an early treatment approach for people with high-risk CLL or SLL who have not yet needed standard therapy. It aims to see if treating earlier can improve outcomes while keeping side effects manageable.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 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).
Columbus, OhioAges 6 months–21 years - NCT06222580RecruitingPhase 1
Combination of two targeted drugs for resistant FLT3-mutated AML
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, SNDX-5613 and gilteritinib, for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. It is for those with an FLT3 gene mutation plus another specific genetic change like NPM1 or MLL. The study aims to see if this two-drug approach works better when used together.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07223814RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug with standard chemo for AML
This trial adds an experimental drug called bleximenib to the usual chemotherapy for people newly diagnosed with AML who have certain genetic changes (NPM1 or KMT2A). The goal is to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06043674RecruitingPhase 2
Glofitamab alone or with other drugs for Richter's transformation
This trial tests a drug called glofitamab, alone or combined with other drugs, for people whose chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) has changed into a faster-growing lymphoma (Richter's transformation). The goal is to see how well these treatments work and which combination might be best.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07557056RecruitingPhase 2
Oral combination treatment for untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This clinical trial tests two oral medications, nemtabrutinib and venetoclax, given together to people with untreated CLL or SLL. The goal is to see if this combination effectively kills cancer cells and helps you stay in remission with manageable side effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06124157RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo for children with Ph+ or Ph-like B-ALL
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (dasatinib or imatinib) to a chemotherapy combination with blinatumomab works better for children and young adults with a specific genetic form of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The goal is to see if this approach can improve treatment outcomes for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive or ABL-class Ph-like B-ALL.
Columbus, OhioAges 1 year–46 years - NCT03739814RecruitingPhase 2
Test inotuzumab, blinatumomab, and possibly ponatinib for CD22 ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of medicines (inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab), with or without ponatinib, for people with CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It aims to improve remission and control leukemia cells, including in the bone marrow.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04726241RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

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.
