CAR T-cell therapy for children with relapsed or refractory ALL
This trial tests a new type of immune therapy called CAR T-cells (engineered to find and attack a protein called CD19 on leukemia cells) for children whose acute lymphoblastic leukemia has come back or hasn't responded to usual treatments. The goal is to see if these special cells can safely help control the disease.

Mandala drawing for anxiety before spinal chemo in kids with leukemia
This study tests whether drawing mandalas (circular patterns) can help children aged 4 to 12 with leukemia feel less anxious and scared before a spinal tap that delivers chemotherapy. It may offer a calming, non-drug way to cope with a stressful procedure.

New drug combo for high-risk blood cancer transplant
This trial tests a new combination of two chemotherapy drugs (bendamustine and cyclophosphamide) given before a stem cell transplant to help prevent graft-versus-host disease. It is for people with high-risk blood cancers who don't have a fully matched donor and will receive a partially matched transplant.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,325 recruiting leukemia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a leukemia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a leukemia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
