Immune cells with venetoclax for acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a combination of specially prepared immune cells (CIML NK cells) and a drug called venetoclax for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or a related condition. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the leukemia and possibly prepare for a stem cell transplant.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05857969RecruitingPhase 1
Testing cancer drug response on removed tumor tissue
This early study uses tumor tissue (or bone marrow from blood cancers) and performs lab tests to see which cancer drugs may work better for each person. It also collects genetic information from blood or a saliva swab to help understand why cancers respond differently.
Miami, FloridaAges 1 day–21 years - NCT06523556RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of axatilimab with or without azacitidine for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called axatilimab, given alone or with another drug, for people with certain blood cancers that are advanced or hard to treat. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the disease.

Testing a new drug combo for acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new drug, eganelisib, combined with azacitidine and venetoclax for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It's for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to treatment, or for those with a high-risk type who haven't been treated yet.

Combination treatment for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This study tests a combination of three drugs (venetoclax, chidamide, and chiglitazar) for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has not responded to standard treatment or has returned. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the leukemia and is safe.

Study of 8-chloroadenosine plus venetoclax for relapsed or refractory AML
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, 8-chloroadenosine and venetoclax, for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or not responded to prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the leukemia.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07582172RecruitingPhase 2
Stem Cell Transplant for Hard-to-Treat Blood Cancers in Older Adults
This trial tests a new combination of radiation and chemotherapy to prepare your body for a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It's designed for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that hasn't responded well to standard treatments.

Quizartinib, decitabine, and venetoclax for AML or high-risk MDS
This early-phase trial studies a 3-drug combination to treat certain types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in adults. It may help by targeting cancer cells using different medicines, especially for people who may not be able to get intensive chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07012044RecruitingPhase 1
Cedazuridine and decitabine after stem cell transplant for childhood leukemia
This trial tests if adding two chemotherapy drugs (cedazuridine and decitabine) along with a growth factor (filgrastim) can help prevent leukemia from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for children and young adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia who are in remission after transplant.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 21 years - NCT07771803RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Soursop tea study for advanced blood cancer
This study tests whether drinking soursop tea can help people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or multiple myeloma (MM) when other treatments have stopped working. It aims to see if the tea is safe and can reduce signs of the disease.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory acute myeloid leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 245 recruiting refractory acute myeloid 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 myeloid 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 myeloid 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.
