Recruiting studies
- NCT05788679RecruitingPhase 2
Use a patient’s genetic test to guide treatment after transplant
This study looks at a personalized lab test to detect small amounts of disease after a stem cell transplant and then decide what treatment comes next. It may help some people with certain bone-marrow diseases stay in remission while avoiding unnecessary treatment.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT05805098RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing Venetoclax with chemo for newly diagnosed AML
This trial studies whether adding venetoclax to standard induction chemotherapy (homoharringtonine plus cytarabine) can improve outcomes for people with newly diagnosed AML. It mainly looks at people who can safely receive intensive chemotherapy but have certain heart, kidney, or lung limits.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–60 - NCT05811845Recruiting
Testing blood monitoring of 6MP to help kids stay in remission
This trial is for children newly diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It tests whether checking medicine levels in the blood can help optimize ongoing treatment (maintenance) and potentially keep the cancer under control.
Monza, Monza BrianzaAges Up to 18 years - NCT05840575Recruiting

This study looks at how thinking and memory may change in children and young adults after a new cancer diagnosis, especially around chemotherapy. It may help doctors better understand and track brain-related side effects early.
CopenhagenAges 7–29 - NCT05842603Recruiting
Lifestyle program to help people with MPN move more
This pilot study tests a lifestyle and movement program for adults with certain myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), aiming to improve well-being through safe exercise habits. You may be considered if you have an MPN and at least one heart-related risk factor.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05909059RecruitingPhase 2
CAR-T therapy for people with kidney function problems
This study tests a type of immune treatment (CAR-T) in people whose kidneys are not working well, using chemotherapy first to help the CAR-T work. It may help people with certain blood cancers who have reduced kidney function to still receive CAR-T therapy safely.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05858814RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cell therapy to help prevent AML relapse after transplant
This trial tests an injection of donor-derived immune cells (called RC1012) to lower the chance of AML coming back after an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It is aimed at people at higher risk of relapse once the transplant is completed.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT05865301Recruiting
Outcomes after approved immunotherapy for young blood cancer patients
This study looks at the real-world results of treating certain B-cell blood cancers in children and young adults with commercially available immunotherapy. It may help doctors better understand how these treatments work for patients after relapse or when they need additional therapy.
Tucson, ArizonaAges Up to 26 years - NCT05873322Recruiting
Study glucose changes during steroid and asparaginase treatment
This study looks at how blood sugar changes in children and teens receiving treatment for ALL (a leukemia) or lymphoma. It focuses specifically on effects that may be caused by steroids and a medicine called PEG-asparaginase.
Aarhus NAges 1–17 - NCT05875805Recruiting
Telehealth planning for future care decisions
This trial tests a telehealth (video or phone) program that helps people with certain blood cancers plan their future care preferences. It may help you and your chosen support person communicate your wishes clearly, especially if you become too sick to speak for yourself.
Rochester, New YorkAges 60 years+ - NCT05876923Recruiting
Exercise study for immune changes in indolent blood cancers
This study looks at how an exercise program may change parts of the immune system in people with slow-growing (indolent) non-Hodgkin lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL/SLL). It may help researchers understand which immune changes could be important for your condition.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–80 - NCT05887167RecruitingPhase 1
Test safety of making CAR T cells from your own blood
This Phase 1 study looks at whether it is safe and practical to collect your own stem cells and use them to support CAR T-cell therapy for certain blood cancers that have come back or did not respond. It aims to find the best way to combine these steps, which may help some people receive CAR T treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT05901974RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax plus azacitidine for newly diagnosed ALAL
This Phase 2 study tests whether venetoclax combined with azacitidine can help people with ALAL (an “ambiguous” type of acute leukemia). It also checks whether the combination is safe for newly diagnosed patients with adequate heart, liver, and kidney health.
SuzhouAges 15 years+ - NCT05904106RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax plus azacitidine versus stronger chemotherapy for AML
This Phase 2 trial compares two treatment approaches for people newly diagnosed with a specific type of AML (bone marrow cancer) that has an NPM1 mutation: venetoclax plus azacitidine versus intensive (strong) chemotherapy. It aims to see which plan works better and is safer for “fit” patients.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–70 - NCT05908409RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an investigational drug for blood cancers that came back
This Phase 1/2 trial tests IDP-121 in people with certain blood cancers that have returned or did not respond to available treatments. The goal is to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Santander, CantabriaAges 18 years+ - NCT05909293Recruiting
Venetoclax maintenance for older adults with AML in remission
This study tests whether “maintenance” treatment with venetoclax can help older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) stay in remission after initial therapy. It may help delay the return of AML, especially in people who achieved first complete remission.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 60–85 - NCT05917405RecruitingPhase 2
Clofarabine vs fludarabine for AML before stem cell transplant
This Phase 2 study compares two chemotherapy medicines—clofarabine and fludarabine—given at a reduced intensity before an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It aims to see which regimen works better and is safer for people with AML who are eligible for this transplant approach.
Nantes, Loire AtlantiqueAges 18–99 - NCT05939180RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Compare two induction treatments for newly diagnosed high-risk AML
This trial tests whether one initial chemotherapy approach works better than another in people newly diagnosed with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). You may benefit if your disease is high-risk, and the study will also compare how well the treatments control the leukemia and how safely they work.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–64 - NCT05943522Recruiting
Study of asciminib in adults with Ph+ CML on Scemblix
This trial looks at using asciminib in people with Philadelphia chromosome–positive chronic myeloid leukemia (Ph+ CML) who are taking Scemblix. If you already use Scemblix, the study may test whether switching or adding asciminib is safe and helpful for managing your leukemia.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,322 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.
