AmiensAges 18–61 - 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT04301076RecruitingPhase 1
Testing lenalidomide with EPOCH for adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma
This trial tests whether adding lenalidomide to a standard chemotherapy regimen (EPOCH) helps people with adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATLL). It aims to improve how well the treatment works.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04968834Recruiting
Collecting children’s and young adults’ blood and marrow for genetic testing
This study collects and stores blood and bone marrow samples from young people with certain blood cancers so doctors can do genetic (“genomic”) testing now and in the future. It may help improve understanding of the disease and support better matching of care for patients.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges Up to 30 years - NCT06469307Recruiting
Patient advisory board for inclusive cancer research
This study is about forming a community advisory board (a group of patients and researchers) to help make cancer research at Dana-Farber more inclusive and fair. It is not a treatment trial—instead, you would review study materials and give your perspective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06747910Recruiting
Remote test for nerve problems after childhood cancer
This study tests if a remote, at-home approach can identify problems with the autonomic nervous system (the part that controls heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion) in adult survivors of childhood leukemia or lymphoma. If you join, you will complete a set of simple tasks (the Ewing battery) from home to see how your body responds.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07288515Recruiting
Acalabrutinib for CLL in routine care
This study follows people with CLL who are starting acalabrutinib (a targeted pill) for the first time, either as their first treatment or after previous therapies. The goal is to see how well it works in everyday medical practice.
GrodnoAges 18 years+ - NCT07705178Recruiting
MRI study of heart and lung health after childhood cancer
This study uses MRI scans to look at the heart and lungs of childhood cancer survivors to see if chemotherapy caused any long-term changes. It may help doctors better understand and manage late effects after treatment for leukemia or lymphoma.
ErlangenAges 3 years+ - NCT07649525RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized myeloma treatment based on response and fitness
This trial tests whether tailoring myeloma treatment based on how well you respond to initial therapy and your overall health status can improve outcomes. You'll receive standard first-line treatment (three drugs: daratumumab, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) and then be assigned to a personalized pathway based on your response and fitness level.
BristolAges 18 years+ - NCT02966756RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax for relapsed or resistant CLL/SLL after prior treatment
This trial studies venetoclax, a targeted medicine, for people with CLL or SLL that has come back or did not respond to prior therapy. It’s likely for patients who still need treatment and have specific genetic or treatment-history features.
Concord, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT03081910RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells made from your own cells to treat CD5 tumors
This early-phase trial tests a type of immune-cell therapy (CAR T cells) made using T cells with a CD5-targeting “zipper” to treat certain relapsed T-cell cancers. The goal is to see if the treatment can help shrink or clear the cancer, especially enough to move toward a stem cell transplant plan.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 75 years - NCT03326310RecruitingPhase 1
Selumetinib plus azacitidine for high-risk blood cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests whether selumetinib and azacitidine can help people with high-risk chronic blood cancers. You may qualify if your disease is higher risk and has either come back, not responded, or needs treatment because of low blood counts or other concerning features.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT03459534RecruitingPhase 3
Radotinib for CML patients after prior TKI failure
This trial tests radotinib (a targeted pill) in people with chronic-phase Philadelphia chromosome–positive CML whose previous TKIs stopped working or could not be tolerated. It aims to improve control of the leukemia while checking safety.
BarnaulAges 18 years+ - NCT03509961RecruitingPhase 2
Reducing total body radiation for children with leukemia transplants
This study looks at whether some children and young adults with B-ALL can safely get a transplant without total body irradiation (TBI), based on special leukemia test results. It’s meant to help lower radiation-related risks while keeping leukemia control strong.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–25 - NCT03568266Recruiting
Genetic study of liver injury from a leukemia medicine
This study looks at why some people develop liver problems while taking asparaginase, a common medicine used to treat newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The goal is to use genetic information to better understand and potentially prevent this side effect.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03590171RecruitingPhase 2
Study for children with relapsed high-risk ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment approach for children with high-risk ALL that has returned. It aims to improve outcomes after relapse by using a planned treatment schedule.
Clayton, VictoriaAges Up to 17 years - NCT03702309Recruiting

Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–31 - NCT03728335RecruitingPhase 2
Enasidenib maintenance after transplant for IDH2-mutated AML
This trial studies enasidenib to help keep acute myeloid leukemia (AML) under control after an allogeneic stem cell transplant in people with an IDH2 mutation. It may help reduce the chance of the leukemia coming back by targeting the mutation that drives the disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03801434RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib for people with certain eosinophil overgrowth diseases
This trial studies ruxolitinib to treat illnesses where the body makes too many eosinophils (a type of white blood cell) and symptoms or organ damage happen. It may help shrink disease activity when steroids are not enough, cannot be tolerated, or the illness comes back.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03828773Recruiting
Azole antifungal prevention for leukemia during low white blood counts
This trial tests whether using a targeted antifungal medicine (aimed at PTX3) can better prevent serious fungal infections in adults with AML or a related bone marrow disease who will have very low neutrophils. It may help lower the risk of dangerous infections during intensive chemotherapy hospital stays.
