Recruiting studies near Los Angeles
- NCT06847867RecruitingPhase 2
Testing momelotinib for low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome
This study tests a new drug, momelotinib, for people with a low-risk form of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who need red blood cell transfusions and have already tried one other treatment (like ESAs or luspatercept). The goal is to see if momelotinib can help reduce transfusion needs.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06498973RecruitingPhase 1
Maintenance therapy after stem cell transplant for CD123-positive AML/MDS
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, tagraxofusp and azacitidine, given as maintenance therapy after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to prevent the leukemia or MDS from coming back in patients whose cancer cells carry a specific marker called CD123.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06297941RecruitingPhase 1
Study of REM-422 for AML or high-risk MDS
This trial tests an experimental oral medication called REM-422 for people with AML (a type of blood cancer) that has not responded to treatment or has come back, or for those with high-risk MDS. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04771130RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of BGB-11417 for blood cancers
This early-phase study tests BGB-11417 in people with certain bone-marrow (blood) cancers such as AML, MDS, or MDS/MPN. The goal is to find out how the medicine works and whether it can control the cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03113643RecruitingPhase 1
SL-401 with standard drugs for hard-to-treat blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests SL-401, given with azacitidine and sometimes venetoclax, to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML), high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the combination can improve blood cancer control.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04243785RecruitingPhase 1
Testing BTX-A51 for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This Phase 1 study tests BTX-A51 in adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It’s designed to see if the treatment can be given safely and to learn how it works in people whose standard treatments have not helped or are no longer an option.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03802695RecruitingPhase 1
Orca-Q pill to help during stem cell transplant
This Phase 1 trial studies Orca-Q to see if it is safe and works when added around the time of an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant for certain blood cancers. If you qualify, the study may offer a new option for managing the transplant immune response.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12–78 - NCT06128070RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing GVHD after stem cell transplant for leukemia
This trial tests adding ruxolitinib to standard drugs (tacrolimus and methotrexate) to prevent graft-versus-host disease in children and young adults undergoing a stem cell transplant for acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. The goal is to lower the risk of GVHD and improve transplant outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 2–22 - NCT06996119RecruitingPhase 1
Preventing graft-versus-host disease after stem cell transplant
This trial tests adding a drug called emapalumab to standard medications (cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil) to prevent graft-versus-host disease in adults receiving a donor stem cell transplant. This approach aims to reduce complications after transplant.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT06577441RecruitingPhase 2
Adding enasidenib to usual care for higher-risk MDS with IDH2 mutation
This trial tests whether adding enasidenib (a targeted pill) to the standard chemotherapy (cedazuridine-decitabine) works better than the chemotherapy alone for people with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose cells have a specific change in the IDH2 gene.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06247787RecruitingPhase 1
Imetelstat plus chemo for relapsed leukemia in kids
This trial tests a new drug called imetelstat combined with two chemotherapy drugs (fludarabine and cytarabine) for children and teens with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) that has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to find the safest dose of imetelstat and see if it helps control the cancer.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 1–18 - NCT04093570Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Extension study for people continuing ASTX727 from a prior trial
This study checks whether continuing ASTX727 for people who already benefited from it in an earlier Taiho study is safe and effective. It may be an option if you stayed on ASTX727 at the end of your parent study and your doctor felt it was helping you.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04988555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an investigational drug for high-risk acute leukemia
This Phase 1/2 study tests enzomenib (DSP-5336) in people with relapsed or hard-to-treat acute leukemia (and, in some places, certain other blood cancers). The goal is to see how the drug works and how safe it is, especially for leukemia cases with specific genetic changes (KMT2A/MLL or NPM1).

What taking part in a mds (myelodysplastic syndrome) 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.
