- NCT07047183RecruitingPhase 2
A study of venetoclax and azacitidine before stem cell transplant for MDS
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (venetoclax and azacitidine) given before a stem cell transplant to see if it improves outcomes for people with a certain type of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that is higher risk. If you have higher-risk MDS and are planning a stem cell transplant, this may be an option.
Changchun, JilinAges 18 years+ - NCT06712810RecruitingPhase 1
Q702 for blood cancers and histiocytic disorders

Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04968834Recruiting
Collecting children’s and young adults’ blood and marrow for genetic testing
This study collects and stores blood and bone marrow samples from young people with certain blood cancers so doctors can do genetic (“genomic”) testing now and in the future. It may help improve understanding of the disease and support better matching of care for patients.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges Up to 30 years - NCT04935684RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant after bone marrow transplant to improve gut health
This Phase 2 study tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (a processed transplant of gut bacteria) after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant is safe and helpful. Participants may benefit by improving recovery in the gut microbiome during the post-transplant period.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT02508038RecruitingPhase 1
Test CD19+ depleted donor transplant for hard childhood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a special type of half-matched (haploidentical) stem cell transplant plus medicines, aiming to reduce cancer relapse after transplant. It may help children and teens with certain leukemia/lymphoma or specific solid tumors who do not have a fully matched donor or whose best options are limited.

Woburn, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT04187703RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing azacitidine and decitabine for bone marrow cancers
This early-phase study tests whether combining two “epigenetic” medicines—azacitidine and decitabine—can improve outcomes for certain bone marrow cancers. It may help if you have a type of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or MDS/MPN overlap that is expected to be sensitive to these medicines.

Azacitidine pills with or without venetoclax for certain blood cancers
This study tests whether a pill form of azacitidine (ASTX030) helps people with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), CMML, or AML. Some groups may also receive venetoclax; the goal is better blood cancer control for people who aren’t good candidates for intensive chemotherapy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03779854RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing graft-versus-host disease in kids after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether removing certain immune cells (T cells) from the donor transplant can lower the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (long-term immune attack after transplant) in children and young adults with blood cancers. If you qualify, it may help improve transplant outcomes while tracking safety and side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 6 months–26 years - NCT03852407RecruitingPhase 2
Two kinds of conditioning before matched stem cell transplant
This trial compares two reduced-intensity conditioning regimens before you receive stem cells from a donor who matches your HLA type. It aims to find which approach works better and is safer for certain blood cancers.
AntwerpAges 18–75 - NCT06839456RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell addback to prevent infections after transplant
This trial tests whether adding back certain immune cells after a stem cell transplant can help prevent serious viral or fungal infections. It's for children and young adults up to age 25 who need a transplant for a blood cancer or other curable disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–25 years - NCT07071155RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Momelotinib with a hypomethylating agent for certain blood cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, momelotinib and a hypomethylating agent, for people with certain slow-growing blood cancers. If you have a diagnosis like chronic myelomonocytic leukemia or chronic neutrophilic leukemia and have an enlarged spleen, this study might be exploring a new treatment option for you.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07532824RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Proton Radiation and Stem Cell Transplant for High-Risk Blood Cancers
This trial tests a new type of radiation therapy (proton-based) combined with a stem cell transplant from a donor to treat advanced forms of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The goal is to improve survival in patients with aggressive or hard-to-treat disease.
PragueAges 18–65 - NCT02958462Recruiting
Clinic study for early blood or bone marrow warning signs
This study follows people who may have early, unclear blood count problems or certain genetic/immune patterns that can later lead to bone marrow failure or blood cancers. It may help doctors better understand risks over time and guide earlier care.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02720679Recruiting
Study genetics behind blood disorders in children and families
This study looks at genetic (DNA) factors that may contribute to certain blood disorders. You may be invited if you or a close family member is receiving care for a blood condition like MDS or MPN, and the study also includes related relatives.

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.
