MoscowAges 18–55 - NCT06230185Recruiting
Blood test to monitor treatment response in triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing whether a blood test can track how well chemotherapy is working in people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. You would provide blood samples before and during treatment, and the results may help your doctor understand your response better.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06221683RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized induction therapy for children with AML based on genetics
This trial tests different induction therapy options based on the specific genetic subtype of a child’s AML and how the leukemia responds early on. The goal is to personalize treatment to improve outcomes and reduce side effects.
Hefei, AnhuiAges Up to 18 years - NCT07671378RecruitingPhase 2
Study of zanubrutinib plus sonrotoclax for high-risk CLL/SLL
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (zanubrutinib and sonrotoclax) as a first treatment for people with high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). It aims to see if this approach works better than standard care by using a test called MRD to guide treatment duration.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06198868Recruiting
MRD blood test to guide treatment in lung cancer
This trial uses a blood test (ctDNA and CTC) to check for minimal residual disease (MRD) after treatment for stage IIA-IIIC non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if MRD can help predict whether the cancer will come back and guide decisions on extra treatment to prevent recurrence.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06204484Recruiting
MRD-guided Chemo Timing for Early Colon Cancer
This trial is for people with early-stage colon cancer (stage II high-risk or stage III low-risk) that is not MSI-H. It uses a blood test (MRD) to see if you can safely delay or skip extra chemotherapy after surgery, based on whether the test finds any leftover cancer cells.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06157060Recruiting
Predicting liver cancer return after surgery with a blood test
This trial is for people with early-stage liver cancer who are scheduled for surgery. It uses a simple blood test to look for tiny bits of tumor DNA after treatment, which may help predict if the cancer will come back.
Foshan, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06144606RecruitingPhase 2
KTE-X19 CAR T for MRD+ B-ALL
This trial tests a CAR T-cell therapy called KTE-X19 for people with B-cell ALL that is in remission but still has trace disease (MRD-positive). The goal is to see if this treatment can eliminate the remaining cancer cells and prevent relapse.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06066905Recruiting
Study of chidamide and azacitidine for AML patients with MRD after transplant
This trial tests whether a combination of two drugs, chidamide and azacitidine (AZA), can help people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who still have small amounts of leukemia cells (called MRD) after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this treatment can clear those leftover cells and lower the chance of the leukemia coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06005818RecruitingPhase 2
MRD-guided therapy for kidney cancer after surgery
This trial tests whether personalized monitoring of cancer DNA in your blood (MRD) can guide treatment decisions after kidney cancer surgery. If MRD is detected, you may receive extra immunotherapy to reduce the risk of cancer returning.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05965024Recruiting
Using ctDNA blood tests to predict lung cancer return after surgery
This study checks whether a special blood test (ctDNA) taken before and after surgery can predict whether non-small cell lung cancer will come back. If it works, it may help doctors spot recurrence earlier and guide follow-up care after tumor removal.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05950087Recruiting
Blood tests after chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer prognosis
This study looks at blood markers—tiny DNA from the blood (cfDNA) and minimal residual disease (MRD)—to better predict outcomes after standard chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer. It may help doctors identify who is more likely to do well and who may need closer follow-up or additional treatment planning.
Guiyang, GuizhouAges 18–75 - NCT05872724RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized add-on treatment after cervical cancer surgery
This study tests whether a tailored “extra” treatment after surgery—guided by a lab test called minimal residual disease (MRD)—can reduce the risk of cervical cancer coming back. It focuses on people with certain stages of cervical cancer who can follow the treatment plan and study follow-up.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05788679RecruitingPhase 2
Use a patient’s genetic test to guide treatment after transplant
This study looks at a personalized lab test to detect small amounts of disease after a stem cell transplant and then decide what treatment comes next. It may help some people with certain bone-marrow diseases stay in remission while avoiding unnecessary treatment.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT05535855RecruitingPhase 1
UCD19 CAR T for adult ALL with MRD in remission
This early-phase study tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) for adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who still have tiny amounts of cancer detectable by a special test called MRD. It aims to improve outcomes for people who are in first remission but not completely “cancer-free” by MRD testing.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05530096Recruiting
Genetic test to find minimal residual myeloma in remission
This study tests a genetic technology (ClonoSeq-based) to detect very small amounts of multiple myeloma that may remain after treatment. It may help doctors better track how well treatment is working and predict how the disease responds over time.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05433753Recruiting
Study for leftover cancer DNA in HER2-positive early breast cancer
This study looks for tiny traces of cancer after treatment by testing blood for “ctDNA,” which is leftover cancer DNA. It includes people with HER2-positive early breast cancer who are getting chemotherapy before surgery to see if this blood test can detect signs of remaining disease.
Chuo-ku, TokyoAges 20 years+ - NCT05457049Recruiting
Skip extra treatment for early lung cancer after surgery if no cancer found
This study checks if people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer can safely skip chemotherapy or radiation after surgery when repeated blood tests show no sign of cancer left. You would only be watched with regular scans and blood tests to make sure the cancer doesn't come back.
Foshan, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05408897Recruiting
Blood test to predict risk after surgery for high-risk GIST
This study uses a “liquid biopsy” blood test to look for leftover cancer signals after surgery. It aims to predict how well treatment will work and how likely the cancer is to come back in people with high-risk GIST.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - 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+ - NCT05192122RecruitingPhase 1
Stop maintenance medicine in multiple myeloma with low remaining disease
This early-phase study looks at whether it’s safe to stop the usual “maintenance” medicine after a strong response in multiple myeloma. It aims to see if stopping treatment for people with very low remaining disease reduces drug exposure without allowing relapse too soon.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04842006Recruiting
Personalized treatment plan for rectal cancer before and after surgery
This trial looks at a personalized treatment approach for rectal cancer. It aims to guide the best chemotherapy and (if needed) radiotherapy before and after surgery, based on scans and specific test results.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–100 - NCT04513639RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Checking treatment for multiple myeloma after MRD becomes negative
This study looks at whether people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma can safely continue or adjust treatment after they reach “MRD-negative,” meaning very low signs of disease in the bone marrow. It may help reduce the chance of relapse while avoiding unnecessary treatment for some patients.
ÅlesundAges 18–75 - NCT04168502RecruitingPhase 3
Gemtuzumab added to chemotherapy for certain adult AML
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding gemtuzumab to standard chemotherapy helps people with newly diagnosed, favorable-intermediate AML reduce “MRD” (very small remaining leukemia cells). If MRD levels drop more, it may lower the chance of relapse.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mrd?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 104 recruiting mrd 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 mrd 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 mrd 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.
