Recruiting studies
- NCT04167696RecruitingPhase 1
Dose-finding drug study for AML or MDS after standard options fail
This Phase 1 trial tests CYAD-02 to find the safest and recommended dose for people with AML or MDS that has returned or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help if you have limited treatment options, but participation also requires meeting specific heart, lung, and lab safety requirements.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05445154RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New treatment for newly diagnosed FLT3 AML with oral drugs
This Phase 1/2 study tests SKLB1028 (with daunorubicin and cytarabine) in people with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have an FLT3 mutation. It aims to see how well and how safely this treatment works for this specific type of AML.
ChengduAges 18–59 - NCT05445011RecruitingPhase 1
FLT3-targeted CAR-T for relapsed or resistant AML
This trial tests an engineered immune cell treatment (CAR-T) made to target FLT3, for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or did not respond to standard treatment. It aims to control the leukemia when options have been limited.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT05506332RecruitingPhase 1
Venetoclax plus leukemia drugs for AML after treatment failure
This Phase 1 trial studies whether a combination of venetoclax (ABT-199) and “purine analogues” can help adults with AML that has come back or didn’t respond to earlier treatment. It’s designed to test safety and early effectiveness in people who haven’t previously developed resistance to venetoclax.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 18 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 - NCT06125652RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Anti-Tim-3/CD123 CAR T-cell therapy for resistant AML
This study tests a special immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells) that targets two proteins on leukemia cells. It is for people whose AML has returned or not responded to standard treatments.
Xuzhou, JiangsuAges 18–70 - NCT04243785RecruitingPhase 1
Testing BTX-A51 for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This Phase 1 study tests BTX-A51 in adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It’s designed to see if the treatment can be given safely and to learn how it works in people whose standard treatments have not helped or are no longer an option.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06418776RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatments for AML that returns or doesn't respond
This study compares two different treatments for people whose AML did not go away with initial therapy or came back early. It aims to find which approach works better.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT05772559Recruiting
Study of AML genes and drug response in young patients
This trial looks at how childhood, teen, and young adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) changes at the genetic level and how cells respond to multiple drugs. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best and how leukemia interacts with supportive cells in the bone marrow.
AmiensAges Up to 25 years - NCT07784309Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Cell therapy for CD7-positive blood cancer
This study tests a new cell therapy for people with certain types of blood cancer that have returned or not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses immune cells modified to target a marker called CD7 on cancer cells. It may help reduce or eliminate the cancer.
TianjinAges 3–70 - NCT06537843RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax, cytarabine and metformin for AML
This trial tests a combination of three drugs – venetoclax, cytarabine, and metformin – for adults with AML who cannot receive standard high-dose chemotherapy. It aims to see if this gentler mix can help control the leukemia with fewer side effects.
BelémAges 18 years+ - NCT06536959RecruitingPhase 2
VA plus PD-1 inhibitor for relapsed AML and high-risk MDS
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—a chemotherapy-like agent called VA and a PD-1 inhibitor (which helps your immune system fight cancer)—for people with AML or high-risk MDS that has not responded to or returned after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can work better than standard treatments alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07783100RecruitingPhase 2
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.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06316960RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for children with relapsed or resistant CBF-AML and KIT mutation
This trial tests a targeted drug called avapritinib in children and teens with a specific type of leukemia (CBF-AML) that has a KIT gene change and has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if avapritinib is safe and effective for these patients.
Hefei, AnhuiAges Up to 18 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.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06626893Recruiting
Leukemia study using advanced tests to find targeted treatment
This study uses advanced tests (genetics and other 'omics' methods) to better understand your leukemia and find a treatment that targets its specific features. It may help if standard treatments haven't worked or stopped working.
Meldola, Forlì-CesenaAges 18 years+ - NCT06642025RecruitingEarly Phase 1
EX02 car-t cells for hard-to-treat acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new treatment called EX02 CAR-T cells for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses your own immune cells, modified to target a specific marker on leukemia cells, to help fight the cancer.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT05726110RecruitingPhase 3
Selinexor for relapsed or refractory AML in combination treatments
This Phase 3 trial studies selinexor (a medicine that changes signals inside cancer cells) used together with other leukemia treatment regimens for adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or did not respond to standard therapy. It may help people reach remission or control the disease better than the current approach.
Taiyuan, ShanxiAges 18–60 - NCT07668557RecruitingPhase 1
CLL1-CD33 CAR-T cells for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-T) designed to find and kill leukemia cells that carry two specific markers (CLL-1 and CD33). It is for adults with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or is not responding to standard treatments.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–70 - NCT07661095RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CRD3874-SI for relapsed or refractory AML
This trial tests a new drug, CRD3874-SI, for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has returned or not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this drug can help control the leukemia.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07623616RecruitingPhase 2
Ziftomenib for relapsed AML with NPM1 mutation
This trial tests a new drug called ziftomenib in patients whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or stopped responding to treatment and has a specific genetic change called an NPM1 mutation. The drug targets a protein called menin that may help cancer cells grow, and researchers hope it could help patients who have run out of standard treatment options.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory acute myeloid leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 233 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.
