Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05469893RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for high-risk smoldering myeloma
This trial studies a precision approach to treat people with high-risk smoldering myeloma (a condition that can turn into active myeloma). The goal is to see whether the treatment can slow or prevent progression and improve outcomes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04566328RecruitingPhase 3
Newly diagnosed multiple myeloma test of combination therapy
This Phase 3 trial tests a combination treatment approach for adults with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, focusing on response and deeper remission. It may help by improving how well the disease is controlled early and measuring results beyond standard tests.
Stoneham, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07377435RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine after CAR-T therapy for multiple myeloma
This trial tests whether a personalized vaccine (DC/MM fusion) given after standard CAR-T cell therapy can help prevent the cancer from coming back. It is for people with multiple myeloma that has returned or not responded to treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07096778RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for returning multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug called inobrodib combined with two standard treatments (pomalidomide and dexamethasone) for people whose multiple myeloma has come back or did not respond. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06679101RecruitingPhase 3
Belantamab combination vs standard care for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug combination (belantamab mafodotin plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone) against the usual treatment for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who cannot have a stem cell transplant. It aims to see if the new combination works better.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06518551RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Elotuzumab, Iberdomide, and Dexamethasone after Ide-cel for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (elotuzumab, iberdomide, and dexamethasone) for multiple myeloma that has come back after treatment with a type of CAR T-cell therapy called ide-cel. It aims to see if this new combination can help people who have already tried several other treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06433947RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an experimental drug OPN-6602 for advanced multiple myeloma
This trial tests an experimental oral drug called OPN-6602 for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding to at least three prior treatments. The main goal is to see if the drug is safe and tolerable, and to find the best dose.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06140524RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Linvoseltamab for high-risk MGUS or smoldering myeloma
This trial tests if linvoseltamab can remove abnormal plasma cells that might turn into multiple myeloma. It is for patients with high-risk MGUS (a precancerous condition) or non-high-risk smoldering myeloma who have not yet developed active myeloma.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05922501RecruitingPhase 2
Test four medicines for relapsed multiple myeloma
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of medicines (isatuximab, belantamab mafodotin, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone) for multiple myeloma that has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help by better controlling the myeloma after standard therapies have failed.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05789303RecruitingPhase 2
Belantamab plus other medicines for relapsed multiple myeloma
This Phase 2 study tests whether belantamab mafodotin combined with carfilzomib, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone can better treat multiple myeloma that has come back. It may help people who have already tried other myeloma treatments but whose cancer has progressed again.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Jamaica Plain, MassachusettsAges 40–75 - NCT05243797RecruitingPhase 3
Teclistamab plus lenalidomide maintenance after transplant
This trial tests whether adding teclistamab to lenalidomide (or using teclistamab alone) helps keep newly diagnosed multiple myeloma from coming back after an autologous stem cell transplant. It’s comparing these options to lenalidomide alone as long-term maintenance.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03689595Enrolling by invitation
PROMISE study: Predicting myeloma risk in high-risk groups
This study uses a blood test to find early signs of myeloma in people at higher risk, such as those with a family history or African ancestry. It aims to predict who might develop myeloma before symptoms appear.

What taking part in a myeloma 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.

Common questions
- Are there myeloma clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 58 recruiting myeloma studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a myeloma study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a myeloma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
