Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT03150693RecruitingPhase 3
New treatment for young adults with CD22-positive ALL
This Phase 3 trial tests adding inotuzumab ozogamicin to standard chemotherapy for newly diagnosed CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It may help more patients achieve remission and reduce the risk of the leukemia coming back, while also checking safety and tolerability.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–39 - NCT07328503RecruitingPhase 2
CD22 CAR T-cells to prevent relapse after CD19 CAR T-cell therapy
This trial tests if giving a second type of CAR T-cell therapy that targets CD22 can help keep B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in remission for people who are already in remission after CD19 CAR T-cell treatment. It aims to reduce the risk of the cancer coming back.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–65 - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT03226704Enrolling by invitation
Leukapheresis to prepare CAR cell therapy
This trial collects white blood cells through a procedure called leukapheresis to help make CAR or other adoptive cell therapies. It’s for people with certain cancers who are not in remission (or are at high risk of relapse) and can meet health and lab requirements.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–65 - 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 - NCT07328516Enrolling by invitation
Farm childhood health study for adult children
This study looks at how early-life exposures on farms might influence long-term health. If you are an adult child of a farmer or farmworker from the Agricultural Health Study, and you spent time on a farm as a child, you may be able to join.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT05621291Recruiting
Sequencing test to guide care after CD19 CAR T in kids
This study checks a DNA-based lab test (next-generation sequencing, or NGS) to monitor B-cell recovery after CD19 CAR T treatment in children and young adults. The goal is to see whether the test can help guide management while looking for remission and safe recovery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–25 - 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–59 - NCT05006716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for certain B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies the safest dose and then effectiveness of BGB-16673 in people with specific B-cell malignancies. It may help by targeting cancer cells in these blood cancers, especially after other treatments like BTK inhibitors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07221500RecruitingPhase 2
Study of NX-5948 for advanced CLL or SLL
This trial tests an experimental drug called NX-5948 for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or not responded to prior treatments. It's for those who have already tried a BTK inhibitor and a BCL-2 inhibitor.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02203903RecruitingPhase 1
Donor T-cell treatment after transplant for high-risk AML and MDS
This Phase 1 trial studies an advanced form of donated immune cells given after a stem cell transplant to help prevent leukemia coming back. It mainly looks at safety and whether the treatment can work in people with very high-risk AML or MDS who have not relapsed.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 6 months–80 years - 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+ - NCT06943872RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing new treatments for relapsed CLL or SLL
This study tests a combination of sonrotoclax plus obinutuzumab or rituximab versus the current standard venetoclax plus rituximab for people whose CLL or SLL has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see which approach helps keep the cancer from growing longer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06366789RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for AML with FLT3 or spliceosome mutations
This trial tests a new drug called ZE46-0134 for adults with AML that has a specific gene change (FLT3 or spliceosome mutation) and hasn't been controlled by prior treatment. It aims to find the right dose and see if it can help stop the leukemia from growing.
College Park, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06652438RecruitingPhase 3
Revumenib plus standard drugs for NPM1 or KMT2A AML
This trial tests adding a new targeted drug, revumenib, to two standard AML medicines (azacitidine and venetoclax) for adults with a specific gene change (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement) who cannot receive strong chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the combination works better.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01676805Recruiting
Collecting tissue samples for lymphoma research
This study collects leftover tissue samples from patients with or without lymphoma to help researchers better understand lymph system cancers. It may be an option if you are already having a biopsy or surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05429632RecruitingPhase 3
Mocravimod to prevent relapse after bone marrow transplant for AML
This Phase 3 trial tests mocravimod, added to standard care, to help keep acute myeloid leukemia (AML) from coming back after an allogeneic bone marrow (stem cell) transplant. It may help by supporting long-term remission during the transplant recovery period.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials

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.
