- NCT06741722RecruitingPhase 2
Study of mitoxantrone liposome combo for relapsed or refractory AML
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (mitoxantrone liposome plus others) for people with AML that has returned or hasn't responded to treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and effective.

Dual-Target CAR-T Cells for Blood Cancers That Haven't Responded to Treatment
This study tests a new type of cell therapy called CAR-T cells that are designed to target two different proteins on cancer cells. These cells are made from your own immune cells, trained in the lab, and then put back into your body to fight blood cancers that have come back or stopped responding to previous treatments.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05054257RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T19 for hard-to-treat blood cancers that have CD19
This Phase 1 study tests CAR T cells designed to attack cancer cells that carry a marker called CD19. It’s for adults with certain relapsed or treatment-resistant B-cell leukemias (ALL) or lymphomas (NHL) where other treatments may not have worked.
PragueAges 18–80 - NCT07513129RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combination for relapsed T-cell blood cancer in teens and young adults
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (venetoclax, dexamethasone, bortezomib, and daratumumab) to treat T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoma that has come back or stopped responding to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help patients aged 12–30 achieve remission.
Houston, TexasAges 12–30 - NCT06179524RecruitingPhase 2
CAR-T-19 for CD19-positive B-ALL in children and young adults
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR-T-19 for children and young adults up to age 25 whose B-ALL has returned or is not responding to standard treatments. The CAR-T cells are engineered to find and destroy leukemia cells that have the CD19 protein.

Chemo plus targeted conditioning for hard-to-treat AML
This trial studies a specific chemotherapy plan (called sequential CLAG-Ven) with a gentler “conditioning” treatment before a transplant or donor-based therapy.

AmmanAges 1 year+ - NCT07356154RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of revumenib and mezigdomide for leukemia
This trial tests two experimental drugs, revumenib and mezigdomide, for people with acute leukemia that has certain genetic changes (NPM1, KMT2A, or NUP98) and has come back or not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the leukemia.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07361029RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for adults with returning B-cell leukemia
This trial tests whether specially designed immune cells (CAR T cells) that target CD19 can help adults whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia has not responded to standard treatments or has returned. The cells are made from your own blood and given back to you after a short chemotherapy preparation.
Riyadh, Riyadh RegionAges 18–75 - 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.

Study drug for adults with AML that did not respond or returned
This Phase 1 study tests BP1002 in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that is refractory (not responding) or relapsed (coming back). It’s early-stage, aiming to find a safe dose and see if the treatment can help people with limited options.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory acute leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 376 recruiting refractory acute leukemia 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 refractory acute leukemia 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 refractory acute leukemia 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.
