Recruiting studies
- NCT02074839RecruitingPhase 1
Oral AG-120 for advanced blood cancers with an IDH1 mutation
This Phase 1 study tests an oral medicine called AG-120 in adults with advanced blood cancers that have a specific IDH1 mutation. It also looks at safety and how the treatment works, with frequent blood, urine, and bone marrow samples.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT02143830RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant chemotherapy for Fanconi anemia
This Phase 2 study tests a stem cell transplant approach using adjusted chemotherapy doses for people with Fanconi anemia. It may help replace damaged bone marrow and treat blood problems like severe aplastic anemia, MDS, or leukemia.
New York, New YorkAges 3 months+ - NCT03300492RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Natural killer cell treatment after a half-matched stem cell transplant
This early trial studies adding special immune cells called “natural killer cells” after a half-matched stem cell transplant for AML or MDS. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes and safety when there is no fully matched donor available.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT02646839Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Testing a gene-matched transplant approach for childhood leukemia
This trial studies a specific type of partially matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant in children with ALL, AML, or MDS. It looks at whether using certain immune system gene patterns (KIR) and measuring leftover disease after treatment can improve outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT00923442Enrolling by invitation
Study of blood cancers’ biology using stored or new tissue
This trial studies how different blood cancers and early (pre-cancer) blood conditions work, using tumor/blood tissue samples. It may help researchers learn more about disease biology for future treatments, with little to no extra risk if samples come from routine care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–120 - NCT01728402Enrolling by invitation
Study of the causes of certain blood cancers
This study looks at what leads to specific blood cancers and related blood disorders. If you have one of the listed conditions (or are being evaluated for it), you may be asked to join research that helps doctors understand why these illnesses happen.
Portland, OregonAges 1 year+ - NCT07400341RecruitingPhase 2
Romiplostim vs rhTPO for platelet recovery after transplant
This trial compares two drugs, romiplostim and rhTPO, to help increase platelet counts after a stem cell transplant in people with MDS or aplastic anemia. The goal is to see which drug works better at reducing the need for platelet transfusions.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–65 - NCT07347418RecruitingPhase 1
CD64 CAR T cell therapy for relapsed or refractory AML
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR T cells that target a protein called CD64 on leukemia cells. It is for adults with AML that has come back or not responded to treatment, including venetoclax.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 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.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 2–75 - 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+ - NCT07511829Recruiting
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+ - NCT07566377RecruitingPhase 2
Cord Blood Transplant for Children and Young Adults With Blood Cancer
This study tests whether using cord blood stem cells (collected from umbilical cords after birth) can help treat high-risk blood cancers in children and young adults when a matched donor is not quickly available. Cord blood transplants may help prevent cancer from coming back.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 26 years - NCT07578675Recruiting
Brain Activity Patterns in Anemia Patients
This study uses a non-invasive brain imaging tool to understand how anemia affects thinking and brain function. Researchers hope to learn more about why some anemia patients experience cognitive problems and how to help them.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT07579429RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide Riboside Supplement for MDS
This trial tests whether a supplement called nicotinamide riboside can help people with a blood disorder called MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome) or early warning signs of it. The supplement is meant to support your bone marrow's ability to make healthy blood cells.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07588360Recruiting
Stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome
This trial tests a type of stem cell transplant (using cells from a partially matched donor and umbilical cord blood) for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The goal is to help patients whose disease is high-risk, has returned after treatment, or hasn't responded well to chemotherapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 14–60 - NCT07607418RecruitingPhase 2
Ivosidenib maintenance therapy for IDH1-mutated blood cancers
This trial tests whether taking ivosidenib as a maintenance drug (to keep the cancer in remission) works better than standard care for patients with IDH1-mutated AML or high-risk MDS who cannot undergo a bone marrow transplant. Ivosidenib is a targeted drug that blocks a specific mutation found in your cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04428489Enrolling by invitation
Follow-up for low blood counts without MDS
This study follows people with ongoing low blood counts (red cells, white cells, and/or platelets) to better understand their condition when it does not meet criteria for MDS. It may help improve how persistent blood count problems are evaluated over time.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07228624RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib before, during, and after transplant for myelofibrosis
This trial tests whether taking the drug ruxolitinib before, during, and after a stem cell transplant helps older patients with myelofibrosis or certain related blood disorders. The goal is to see if this approach can improve transplant success and reduce side effects.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–75 - NCT07680868Recruiting
Caris Chromoseq data collection for blood cancers
This study collects data from a special genetic test called Caris Chromoseq for people with certain blood cancers. It aims to learn more about these diseases and possibly guide better treatments.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04771572RecruitingPhase 1
Oral drug LP-118 for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an oral (by mouth) drug called LP-118 in people whose blood cancers have returned or did not respond to prior treatment. The goal is to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink or control the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 13 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for myelodysplastic syndromes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 284 recruiting myelodysplastic syndromes 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 myelodysplastic syndromes 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 myelodysplastic syndromes 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.
