Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05473910RecruitingPhase 1
Engineered donor T cells after stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests specially engineered donor T cells (TSC-100 or TSC-101) given after a stem cell transplant to help prevent cancer relapse in people with AML, MDS, or ALL. It is for patients who have a specific genetic marker (HA-1 or HA-2) and a matched donor.
Hollywood, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03886662RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LB-100 for low-risk MDS after prior treatment failure
This Phase 1/2 trial studies LB-100 in adults with low or intermediate-1 risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). It may help by improving blood counts or disease control in people whose prior treatments have not worked or stopped working.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03970096RecruitingPhase 2
Reduce graft-versus-host disease after stem cell transplant
This Phase 2 study tests ways to lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after an allogeneic stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It is for people with acute leukemia or MDS who are going to receive intensive conditioning therapy, aiming to improve safety while keeping the transplant effective.
Tampa, FloridaAges 1–60 - NCT04064060RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term safety follow-up for luspatercept study participants
This trial studies the long-term safety of luspatercept (ACE-536) in people who already took part in an earlier luspatercept study. It mainly helps doctors better understand ongoing side effects and overall safety over time.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05308264RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
R289 for lower-risk MDS that still needs blood support
This Phase 1/2 study tests R289 in adults with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) whose disease keeps causing anemia and/or ongoing need for red blood cell transfusions. It may help reduce blood problems and treat MDS when standard options haven’t worked well enough or aren’t suitable.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.
Miami, FloridaAges 1–21 - 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.

What taking part in a mds 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.

- Yes. We're currently tracking 21 recruiting mds studies with a site in Florida, 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 mds study in Florida?
- 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 Florida to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Florida, 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 mds 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.
Not the right time?
New mds studies open in Florida regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
