We’re tracking 90 recruiting leukemia studies with a site in Maryland — including Early Phase 1, Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT05237986Recruiting
Study brain and thinking effects after CAR T therapy in youth
This study looks at how CAR T-cell treatment affects thinking, learning, and day-to-day brain function in children and young adults with certain blood cancers. You (and a caregiver) may complete online testing so researchers can track these changes over time and whether support is needed.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 5 years+ - NCT05006716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New treatment for blood cancers that have returned
This trial tests a new pill, tacabrutideg, for blood cancers that have returned or not improved after earlier treatments. It may work for patients who have already tried a type of targeted therapy called a BTK inhibitor.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 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).
Baltimore, MarylandAges 6 months–21 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT02682667Recruiting
Providing blood samples for cancer immunotherapy research
This study collects and stores blood/tissue samples (called biospecimens) to support immunotherapy research at the cancer center. If you may qualify, your samples help researchers test new immune-based cancer treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - NCT00106925Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for people after stem cell transplant
This study follows people who are at least 3 years out from their first stem cell transplant to learn how they are doing long term. It may help improve future transplant care by tracking outcomes over time.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 7–80 - NCT00923507Recruiting
Study of blood cancers’ natural course and next treatment needs
This study follows people with certain slow-growing blood cancers (CLL/SLL, LPL/WM, and related conditions) to understand how they progress and what leads to needing treatment. It may help doctors predict changes over time and plan care more effectively.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–110 - 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 - 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+ - 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 - NCT07428707RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of pirtobrutinib in first-line CLL/SLL
This study tests a new oral medication called pirtobrutinib in people with previously untreated CLL or SLL. Researchers will collect blood and lymph node samples to understand how the immune system responds to the drug.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - 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+ - NCT07499128Enrolling by invitation
Continuous temperature monitoring for cytokine release syndrome
This study tests a wearable device that continuously monitors your body temperature to detect cytokine release syndrome, a possible side effect of certain immunotherapies. The goal is to catch it early so you can get treatment faster.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07168486Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
CAR T-cells targeting CD19, CD20, and CD22 for lymphoma
This trial tests a new type of CAR T-cell therapy that targets three proteins (CD19, CD20, and CD22) on lymphoma cells. It's for people with B-cell lymphomas that have come back or not responded to at least two prior treatments.

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.

Common questions
- Are there leukemia clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 90 recruiting leukemia studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a leukemia study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a leukemia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New leukemia studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
