Recruiting studies in Texas
- NCT03661307RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Quizartinib, decitabine, and venetoclax for AML or high-risk MDS
This early-phase trial studies a 3-drug combination to treat certain types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in adults. It may help by targeting cancer cells using different medicines, especially for people who may not be able to get intensive chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06616636RecruitingPhase 1
Rezatapopt and azacitidine for AML or MDS with a specific TP53 mutation
This trial tests a new drug, rezatapopt, combined with azacitidine for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that has come back or not responded to treatment. It is only for people whose cancer cells have a specific change in a gene called TP53 (the Y220C mutation). The goal is to see if this combination can help control the disease.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03383575RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine plus enasidenib for IDH2-mutant MDS
This trial tests whether combining azacitidine with enasidenib helps people with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that has an IDH2 mutation. It’s designed for people who are either new to “hypomethylating” treatment or whose MDS returned/worsened after it.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT03630991RecruitingPhase 1
Calcium chelator medicine for AML or MDS during chemotherapy
This Phase 1 study tests whether edetate calcium disodium (also called succimer) can be safely given to people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) while they are on chemotherapy.

San Antonio, TexasAges Up to 22 years - NCT06465953RecruitingPhase 3
Ivosidenib vs azacitidine for IDH1-mutated MDS
This trial tests if the drug ivosidenib alone or azacitidine alone can help people with a specific type of MDS that has an IDH1 mutation. It is for people who have not had strong MDS treatments yet.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00801489RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for AML or high-risk MDS using combination chemo
This trial tests a combination treatment (chemo drugs plus a growth-factor medicine) for people newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or certain high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). It may help by targeting cancer cells in the blood and bone marrow and improving remission chances.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01624805RecruitingPhase 2
Immunosuppressant treatment to help low blood counts in some bone marrow disorders
This trial tests a group of immune-suppressing medicines (with steroids and growth-factor injections) for people with aplastic anemia or certain low-risk myelodysplastic syndromes. The goal is to improve bone marrow function and reduce problems caused by low blood counts, such as fatigue, infections, or bleeding.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02115295RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax plus chemotherapy for AML, high-risk MDS, or blast CML
This trial tests a combination treatment (venetoclax plus several chemotherapy medicines) for people with AML, high-risk MDS, or CML that has progressed into a blast phase. It may help by killing leukemia-like blood cells and improving disease control.
Houston, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT04419649RecruitingPhase 2
Elritercept for anemia in lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes
This trial tests elritercept, a medicine meant to improve anemia (low blood count) in adults with certain lower-risk bone marrow disorders called MDS. If you qualify, the study may help reduce the need for blood transfusions or improve anemia symptoms.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03896269RecruitingPhase 1
CPX-351 for high-risk MDS or CMML that came back
This Phase 1 trial studies CPX-351, a cancer medicine, in people with high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) whose disease relapsed or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help shrink or control the leukemia and improve blood counts in patients who cannot or do not want a stem cell transplant.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06297941RecruitingPhase 1
Study of REM-422 for AML or high-risk MDS

What taking part in a myelodysplastic syndromes 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.
