Duarte, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05886036RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing rituximab vs mosunetuzumab for NLPHL
This trial compares two immunotherapy drugs, rituximab and mosunetuzumab, to see which works better for people with nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) who need treatment. It's for both newly diagnosed and previously treated patients.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05663502Recruiting
Donate blood and tissue samples for HIV-related cancer research
This study collects blood and tissue samples to help researchers learn more about cancers related to HIV/AIDS. You may be able to join if you’re 18+ and have HIV and a cancer diagnosis, or (if HIV-negative) a certain cancer that is closely linked to AIDS-related cancers.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Arroyo Grande, CaliforniaAges 40–75 - NCT05351593RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tafasitamab and lenalidomide for returning CNS lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, tafasitamab and lenalidomide, for people whose central nervous system lymphoma has come back. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink the cancer or slow its growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05947851RecruitingPhase 3
Nemtabrutinib plus venetoclax versus standard add-on therapy
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding nemtabrutinib to venetoclax works better than the usual next treatment approach (venetoclax plus rituximab) in people with relapsed or treatment-resistant CLL/SLL. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds after at least one prior therapy.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04920617RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus pembrolizumab, with or without low-dose chemo
This Phase 2 study tests whether a cancer vaccine called DPX-Survivac, along with pembrolizumab (an immune medicine), can help shrink diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or not responded. It also looks at whether adding intermittent low-dose cyclophosphamide (a low-dose chemotherapy) improves results.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05255354Recruiting
Testing blood cancer DNA monitoring during CAR-T treatment
This trial checks whether a blood test that looks for small amounts of cancer DNA can accurately track minimal residual disease (MRD) in lymphoma patients during CAR-T therapy. It may help doctors detect relapse earlier and better judge how well CAR-T is working.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05967416RecruitingPhase 1
Early-phase lymphoma trial testing a new targeted immune treatment
This Phase 1 study tests SIRPant-M, a new immune-based treatment, in adults with lymphoma that has come back or not responded to earlier care. It may help by shrinking lymphoma using either the drug alone or the drug plus a targeted radiation treatment for certain lymphoma types.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07332507RecruitingPhase 1
Testing teclistamab for recurrent plasmablastic lymphoma
This trial tests a new drug called teclistamab for people with plasmablastic lymphoma that has come back or not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if teclistamab can shrink tumors and control the disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07293403RecruitingPhase 2
Duvelisib maintenance for peripheral T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests whether the drug duvelisib can help keep T-cell lymphoma in remission after initial chemotherapy. It is for people who have finished first-line treatment with a CHOP-like regimen, achieved a complete response, and cannot or choose not to have a stem cell transplant.

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.

Common questions
- Are there lymphoma clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 189 recruiting lymphoma studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a lymphoma study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a lymphoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
