Recruiting studies
- NCT03533816RecruitingPhase 1
Gamma delta T-cell infusion after stem cell transplant
This early-phase study tests giving a special immune-cell treatment after an allogeneic (donor) stem cell transplant, plus a medication given after transplant to help the new immune system work better. It may help prevent or treat cancer returning after transplant.
Westwood, KansasAges 18–65 - NCT03471260RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ivosidenib and venetoclax for IDH1-mutated leukemia or MDS
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether the medicines ivosidenib and venetoclax (with or without azacitidine) can help people with certain “IDH1-mutated” blood cancers like AML or high-risk MDS. It’s meant for patients whose disease has come back, doesn’t respond, or who can’t safely get standard chemotherapy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03173937RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cord blood transplant for severe aplastic anemia
This study tests a special cord blood transplant that may help your body start making blood cells faster than a regular transplant. It is for people with severe aplastic anemia or related bone marrow failure who have not gotten better with other treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–75 - NCT03214562RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Venetoclax plus chemotherapy for acute leukemia
This trial studies how well venetoclax combined with chemotherapy treats newly diagnosed or returning (relapsed) or hard-to-treat (refractory) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It’s mainly for people who can’t use standard AML therapy well, or whose disease came back.
Houston, TexasAges 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 - NCT01890486Recruiting
Collecting information from people having a stem cell transplant
This study aims to collect, store, and share data from patients who are receiving standard intensive treatment and a stem cell transplant from either their own cells or a donor. It may help improve how future patients are treated by building a reliable record of outcomes and care patterns.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–120 - NCT01515527RecruitingPhase 2
Cladribine plus low-dose cytarabine and decitabine for AML or MDS
This Phase 2 study tests a combination chemotherapy plan (cladribine, low-dose cytarabine, and decitabine) for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It aims to shrink the leukemia/MDS and improve outcomes, including for certain people who may not tolerate standard treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 60 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT01137825Recruiting
Older patient cancer registry for a health check
This study is a registry that collects information from older adults who may be dealing with cancer. It includes a short health and function check to help doctors understand needs and guide care, even for people who turn out not to have cancer.
Boone, North CarolinaAges 65 years+ - NCT00900198Recruiting
Give cancer tissue samples to help future cancer research
This study collects tissue or other cancer-related samples to help researchers better understand cancer and develop better tests or treatments. You can join if you are being evaluated for or treated for cancer, and you agree to let your samples be used for research.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 2 months+ - 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 - 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 279 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.
