Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT06615479RecruitingPhase 3
New treatment vs standard care for relapsed multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new treatment called BMS-986393 (a type of CAR T-cell therapy) compared to standard treatments for adults with multiple myeloma that has come back or is not responding to therapy, and who have already been treated with lenalidomide (Revlimid). The goal is to see if the new treatment works better.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06121843RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CAR-T cell therapy in combinations for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy (called arlocabtagene autoleucel) combined with other drugs for multiple myeloma that has returned or stopped responding. It aims to find a safe and effective dose while tracking how well the treatment works.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02343042RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor with standard therapies for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug called selinexor (KPT-330) combined with various standard treatments for patients whose multiple myeloma has come back or stopped responding to therapy.

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 55 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.
