Recruiting studies
- NCT05749276RecruitingPhase 1
Daratumumab with chemo for older adults with high-risk AML
This Phase 1 study tests whether adding daratumumab to standard intensive chemotherapy (idarubicin and cytarabine) works safely in people age 60 or older with a higher-risk form of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It may help improve outcomes, but the main goal is to find the best dosing and safety in this age group.
NantesAges 60 years+ - NCT04844528RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide for CLL patients with recent skin cancer history
This Phase 2 trial tests whether nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can help people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have had non-melanoma skin cancers in the past 5 years. The study looks at how well new skin cancers can be prevented or reduced.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT05732103RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing CTX-712 for AML or high-risk MDS after prior treatment
This early-phase study tests CTX-712, a new cancer treatment, in people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or certain high-risk blood cancers came back or did not respond to prior therapy. It may help shrink the cancer and control the disease by targeting it differently than standard treatments.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05194397RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise plus NR supplement to boost fitness after stem-cell transplant
This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program, plus an NR supplement, can improve fitness in young people who have had an allogeneic (donor) stem-cell transplant for certain blood cancers or bone marrow conditions.

Duarte, CaliforniaAges 10–30 - NCT05674539Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Less intense transplant regimen for AML or MDS patients
This trial tests whether a less intense chemotherapy and transplant plan can work for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who are getting a stem cell transplant. It may help reduce transplant-related harm, especially in people considered higher risk due to age or other health factors.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05645107RecruitingPhase 3
XEMBIFY plus usual care to prevent infections
This Phase 3 study tests whether XEMBIFY (an immune protein therapy) plus standard medical treatment can better prevent serious or repeated infections. It is for people with certain cancers of blood/immune systems who are already having trouble with infections.

This trial tests a new drug called LP-108 combined with azacitidine for people with certain blood cancers like acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). It aims to see if the combination is safe and helps shrink or control the cancer.
NanchangAges 18 years+ - NCT05636514RecruitingPhase 1
Testing epigenetic and sensitizer treatment for AML and MDS
This early-phase trial tests whether a combination of targeted medicines can improve outcomes in people with higher-risk MDS or certain types of AML or CMML. It’s designed to find the safest dose and learn if the treatment can help the cancer respond.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05645718RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus targeted antibodies for relapsed childhood B-ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a combination treatment for children, teens, or young adults whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) has come back or did not respond to initial therapy. It may help patients who cannot safely receive certain standard medicines like anthracyclines or who cannot tolerate PEG-asparaginase.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT05672251RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody drugs for lymphoma that came back
This Phase 2 trial tests two targeted antibody medicines—loncastuximab tesirine and mosunetuzumab—in people whose diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma grade 3B has come back or did not respond. It aims to shrink lymphoma that has measurable disease and has specific markers (CD19 and CD20) on tumor cells.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05627232RecruitingPhase 1
Tazemetostat and palbociclib for relapsed or resistant AML
This early-phase study tests whether tazemetostat and palbociclib can help people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or did not respond to treatment. It looks for safety and early signs of how well the treatment works.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05581030RecruitingPhase 1
Newly diagnosed ALL: testing a treatment after Hyper-CVAD
This Phase 1 study looks at a treatment approach for people newly diagnosed with Philadelphia-negative B- or T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) after completing a specific chemotherapy course called Hyper-CVAD 1A. It aims to see if the treatment can be given safely and how well it may work for this type of leukemia.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18–50 - NCT05580601RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy trial for children with relapsed or stubborn AML
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a lab-made immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or did not respond to treatment. It aims to help the immune system attack leukemia cells in the bone marrow, especially when standard treatments have not worked.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 2 years+ - NCT05592015RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib for T-cell large granular leukemia
This Phase 2 study tests ruxolitinib, a targeted medicine, to improve outcomes in T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). It is for people whose disease is causing symptoms or who have already tried other treatment, with specific blood, infection, and medication requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05587049Recruiting
Testing an oral medicine plus azacitidine to improve AML disease
This study looks at how a standard AML treatment plan affects a person’s disease status over time. It focuses on newly diagnosed adults who cannot safely get intensive chemotherapy, using oral venetoclax plus azacitidine.
Medellín, AntioquiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05579132RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for relapsed or hard-to-treat B-cell leukemia

UCD19 CAR T for adult ALL with MRD in remission
This early-phase study tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) for adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who still have tiny amounts of cancer detectable by a special test called MRD. It aims to improve outcomes for people who are in first remission but not completely “cancer-free” by MRD testing.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,284 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.
