Recruiting studies near Milwaukee
- NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 1–21 - NCT05564390RecruitingPhase 2
MyeloMATCH screening to match you to AML or MDS treatment
This study screens people with newly suspected acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) to see which treatment approach fits best—either a specific study treatment or standard care. It may help by directing you to the right option and by sharing your blood/bone marrow samples for research.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Any age - NCT04771130RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of BGB-11417 for blood cancers
This early-phase study tests BGB-11417 in people with certain bone-marrow (blood) cancers such as AML, MDS, or MDS/MPN. The goal is to find out how the medicine works and whether it can control the cancer.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04546399RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab with or without nivolumab for first relapse ALL
This study compares blinatumomab alone versus blinatumomab plus nivolumab in young people whose B-cell ALL has returned for the first time. It aims to see whether adding nivolumab improves control of the leukemia after relapse.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 1–30 - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors

Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Any age - 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.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 1 year–46 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.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–59 - NCT04293562RecruitingPhase 3
Testing targeted drugs plus chemo for newly diagnosed AML
This study compares standard chemotherapy to chemotherapy plus CPX-351 and/or gilteritinib in children and young adults newly diagnosed with AML. It aims to see whether adding these targeted treatments improves outcomes, especially for certain gene changes like FLT3.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Up to 21 years - NCT04186520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell treatment for hard-to-treat B-cell lymphomas
This trial studies a type of lab-made immune cell therapy (CAR T) using cells called CAR-20/19-T. It is for adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers, aiming to reduce or eliminate lymphoma in people whose disease has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–80 - NCT03802695RecruitingPhase 1
Orca-Q pill to help during stem cell transplant
This Phase 1 trial studies Orca-Q to see if it is safe and works when added around the time of an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant for certain blood cancers. If you qualify, the study may offer a new option for managing the transplant immune response.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 12–78 - NCT03375619Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after CAR-T treatment
This study checks in with people who already received CAR-T therapy to learn how they’re doing over time. It may help doctors understand the long-term benefits and side effects of CAR-T for future patients.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–80 - NCT03666000RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a CD19 CAR T cell treatment for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and best dose of a CD19 CAR T cell therapy (azer-cel) in people whose B-cell blood cancer has returned or did not respond to treatment. It may help people with relapsed/refractory B-ALL or certain aggressive or large B-cell lymphomas, including after or before prior CAR T treatment.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05544019RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an investigational drug for mature B-cell cancers
This early (Phase 1) study tests SGR-1505, an experimental treatment, in people with certain mature B-cell cancers. It’s mainly designed to see how the drug works in the body and to check safety, and it may offer an option if standard treatments aren’t enough.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05131022RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NX-5948 for relapsed B-cell blood cancers

Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04877522RecruitingPhase 4
Continued asciminib treatment for certain leukemia patients
This trial lets people who already have Philadelphia chromosome–positive (Ph+) leukemia and are benefiting from asciminib (or certain related medicines) continue treatment. It mainly tests whether ongoing care in a follow-on study is safe and workable for participants.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 7–100 - NCT05602363RecruitingPhase 1
Docirbrutinib for CLL or lymphoma after prior treatments
This Phase 1 study tests docirbrutinib, a targeted pill treatment, in people with CLL/SLL or certain other B-cell lymphomas that have come back or didn’t respond to earlier therapy. The goal is to see whether it’s safe and whether it can control the disease after standard treatments have failed.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04836390Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Donor immune cell treatment after transplant for high-risk AML
This trial tests an additional immune therapy made from donor natural killer (NK) cells given around the time of a special stem cell transplant for children and young adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It aims to help prevent the leukemia from coming back or not responding after transplant.

Testing KRT-232 with a TKI for CML that didn’t respond
This trial studies a new drug (KRT-232) combined with a standard CML “TKI” medicine to treat chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) that is resistant or not tolerated after at least one prior TKI. It may help people whose leukemia hasn’t controlled as expected on current treatments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04972942RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy for high-risk T-cell blood cancers after transplant
This Phase 1 study tests a targeted immune treatment given after strong pre-treatment (myeloablative chemo plus total-body radiation) before or along with an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back in young people with high-risk T-cell ALL or certain T-cell lymphomas.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Up to 39 years - NCT05332054Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up after prior Caribou treatment

Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05317403RecruitingPhase 1
Venetoclax plus chemo to change cancer cell behavior
This Phase 1 trial tests whether venetoclax, combined with chemotherapy and a “cancer cell behavior” medicine strategy, can improve treatment for people with AML that has come back or not gone into remission. It’s mainly looking at safety and early signs of benefit.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 1–25 - NCT05544968RecruitingPhase 1

What taking part in a leukemia 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.
