Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05685173RecruitingPhase 1
Study safety of REGN5837 with odronextamab in adult B-cell lymphoma
This Phase 1 trial tests whether a new medicine (REGN5837) given with odronextamab is safe in adults with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It may help researchers learn if this combination can work for patients whose disease has progressed after earlier treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01351545Recruiting
Cryopreserved cord blood access program for transplant patients

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04045470Recruiting
Skin-device test to find drugs for T-cell lymphoma lesions

Boston, MassachusettsAges 1–40 - NCT05313243RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus brentuximab for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests pembrolizumab together with brentuximab for people whose T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma has come back or stopped responding to treatment. It may help shrink the lymphoma and improve long-term control by boosting the immune system and targeting a protein called CD30.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07013435Recruiting
Resilience training for lymphoma survivors
This study tests a program to help lymphoma survivors build resilience and improve long-term quality of life after treatment. It's a behavioral intervention, not a drug trial, that focuses on coping and well-being.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07020533RecruitingPhase 1
CMV vaccine for stem cell transplant recipients
This trial tests a vaccine designed to boost immunity against CMV (a common virus) and prevent active CMV infection in people receiving a half-matched stem cell transplant. It may help protect you from CMV-related complications after transplant.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT07024706RecruitingPhase 2
Study of acalabrutinib plus venetoclax for relapsed CLL
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs for people with CLL or SLL whose cancer returned after first treatment with a similar type of therapy. The goal is to see if this approach works well with a fixed treatment duration.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–130 - NCT06510361RecruitingPhase 2
Epcoritamab for follicular lymphoma not cured by initial treatment
This trial tests a drug called epcoritamab for people with follicular lymphoma (a type of slow-growing blood cancer) that improved but did not completely go away after standard first therapy. The goal is to see if epcoritamab can help achieve a complete remission.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05475925RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Mosunetuzumab for clearing CLL cells after other treatments
This study tests a drug called mosunetuzumab to see if it can clear remaining cancer cells (minimal residual disease) in people with CLL or SLL who have already had certain treatments. It may help those whose blood tests show very low levels of leftover disease after BTK inhibitor or BCL2 inhibitor therapy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05544019RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an investigational drug for mature B-cell cancers
This early (Phase 1) study tests SGR-1505, an experimental treatment, in people with certain mature B-cell cancers. It’s mainly designed to see how the drug works in the body and to check safety, and it may offer an option if standard treatments aren’t enough.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07015242RecruitingPhase 2
Liso-cel as first treatment for primary CNS lymphoma
This study tests an investigational cell therapy called liso-cel for people with primary central nervous system lymphoma who cannot have a stem cell transplant and have already responded to initial chemotherapy.

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06588478RecruitingPhase 2
Study of pirtobrutinib for CLL or SLL
This trial tests a new drug called pirtobrutinib for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is for those whose cancer has come back or not responded to treatment, including a prior BTK inhibitor, and also for those who have never been treated but have a specific genetic change (17p deletion).
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05675410RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two-drug treatment versus standard for Hodgkin lymphoma

Boston, MassachusettsAges 5–60 - NCT06923397Recruiting
Stopping long sitting time during lymphoma chemo (iSTAND Trial)
This study looks at whether taking short, frequent breaks from sitting can help people with lymphoma who are starting chemotherapy feel better and have fewer side effects. If you join, you'll get a wearable activity tracker and text reminders to stand up and move gently throughout your day.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06475235RecruitingPhase 1
Pembrolizumab with chemo for new CNS lymphoma

What taking part in a lymphoma 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.
