Recruiting studies
- 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.

Wearable Devices to Track Health in Blood Cancer Patients
This study uses wearable technology (like smartwatches) to monitor your health and quality of life while you receive treatment for blood cancers like myeloma or myelodysplastic syndromes. The goal is to help doctors better understand how blood transfusions and other supportive care affect how you feel day-to-day.
Oxford, OXFORDSHIREAges 18 years+ - NCT06764511Recruiting
Biosimilar EPO for anemia in low-risk MDS
This trial tests how well a biosimilar version of erythropoietin (a drug that boosts red blood cells) works in people with low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who have anemia. It aims to see if this treatment can safely improve low hemoglobin levels without needing more intensive therapies.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07500753Recruiting
Study of a conditioning regimen for older adults with hard-to-treat leukemia or MDS
This trial tests a chemotherapy combination (Clad-LABU) to prepare older patients for a stem cell transplant. It is for people aged 50 or older with relapsed or refractory AML or high-risk MDS.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 50 years+ - NCT07493538RecruitingPhase 2
Blood stem cell transplant with lower-intensity chemo for blood cancers
This trial tests a stem cell transplant using milder chemotherapy (treosulfan and fludarabine) followed by a drug called cyclophosphamide to prevent graft-versus-host disease. It aims to make transplant safer for people with blood diseases who cannot handle standard high-dose chemotherapy.

Study of a new drug for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This early study tests a new medicine (ABD-3001) to see if it’s safe and tolerable, how the body handles it, and whether it shows early signs of helping people with relapsed or hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS. It may be an option if standard treatments have already failed and you can’t receive a stem cell transplant.
Marseille, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07422480RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing elritercept to epoetin alfa for anemia in MDS needing transfusions
This trial tests a new drug called elritercept against a standard treatment, epoetin alfa, for people with a low-risk form of MDS who need regular blood transfusions for anemia. The goal is to see if elritercept works better to reduce the need for transfusions.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07396480RecruitingPhase 3
Add-on Venetoclax before stem cell transplant for AML/MDS
This trial tests adding venetoclax to the usual chemotherapy (fludarabine and melphalan) given before a stem cell transplant for older adults with AML or MDS. The goal is to see if the combination helps prevent the disease from coming back after transplant.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 50–75 - NCT05755867Recruiting
Global registry for people with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
This trial is a global patient registry that collects health information from people diagnosed with PNH (a blood condition caused by a genetic change in the PIG-A gene). It may help researchers better understand the condition and what care people receive.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Any age - NCT07381751Recruiting
AI assessment of Parkinson's motor symptoms via video
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze videos of standard motor tests (MDS-UPDRS Part III) for people with Parkinson's disease. It aims to see if AI can reliably assess your symptoms, which could lead to easier, more accessible monitoring in the future.
Hong KongAges 18–95 - NCT04251078Recruiting
Blood tests to track mutations in lower-risk MDS
This study uses repeated blood samples to watch how genetic changes in your blood evolve in lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It may help doctors understand what mutation changes mean over time for people not on strong cancer-fighting treatments.
Badalona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07321626RecruitingPhase 1
Romiplostim for platelet recovery after stem cell transplant
This trial tests if romiplostim, a drug that helps the body make platelets, can speed up platelet recovery after a special type of stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor. It may help reduce bleeding risk during the recovery period.
HangzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT07297576Recruiting
Sulforaphane to speed blood recovery after cord blood transplant
This trial tests if a natural compound called sulforaphane can help your blood cells recover faster after a cord blood transplant for high-risk blood cancers. If you qualify, you would receive this supplement along with your transplant.

Study of how azacytidine works in blood cancers
This study looks at how certain enzymes in your body affect the way a drug called azacytidine works against blood cancers like acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The goal is to better understand who might benefit most from this treatment.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT07270978RecruitingPhase 1
CD33-targeting cells for leukemia with leftover cancer cells

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mds?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 137 recruiting mds 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 mds 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 mds 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.
