Recruiting studies in Ohio
- 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.

Study of AUTX-703 for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests an experimental drug, AUTX-703, for people with certain blood cancers (AML or MDS) that have returned or not improved after other treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and helps control the disease.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05237258Recruiting
Compare palliative care approaches for people with high-risk AML
This study tests a specialized (targeted) palliative care program versus usual oncology care for people hospitalized with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The goal is to see if this palliative approach improves comfort, support, and care planning during intensive treatment.

Tuspetinib for relapsed or hard-to-treat AML
This early-phase study tests tuspetinib in people with AML that has come back or did not respond to treatment. The goal is to learn whether it is safe and tolerable, how the drug behaves in the body, and whether it shows signs of benefit.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 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.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06501196RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BH-30236 for leukemia and high-risk MDS
This trial tests an experimental drug, BH-30236, for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or a high-risk form of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose cancer has come back or stopped responding to treatment. It aims to see if the drug can help control the disease.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06366789RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for AML with FLT3 or spliceosome mutations

Cincinnati, OhioAges birth–21 years - NCT06247787RecruitingPhase 1
Imetelstat plus chemo for relapsed leukemia in kids
This trial tests a new drug called imetelstat combined with two chemotherapy drugs (fludarabine and cytarabine) for children and teens with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) that has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to find the safest dose of imetelstat and see if it helps control the cancer.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–18 - NCT06222580RecruitingPhase 1
Combination of two targeted drugs for resistant FLT3-mutated AML
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, SNDX-5613 and gilteritinib, for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. It is for those with an FLT3 gene mutation plus another specific genetic change like NPM1 or MLL. The study aims to see if this two-drug approach works better when used together.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06177067RecruitingPhase 1
Study of 3 drugs for young AML patients with genetic changes
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (revumenib, azacitidine, and venetoclax) for children and young adults with a hard-to-treat type of leukemia that has a specific genetic change. The goal is to see if this new mix can help when standard treatments have not worked.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–30 - NCT04260022RecruitingPhase 1
Drug study for hard-to-treat CML or Ph+ ALL
This Phase 1 study tests HQP1351 for people with CML or Ph+ ALL that has not responded well to standard targeted pills (TKIs), or those who could not tolerate them. It’s designed to see whether the treatment can work and how safe it is for this difficult-to-treat group.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05834244RecruitingPhase 1
New and relapsed AML treatment using azacitidine, venetoclax, and NK cells
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of azacitidine, venetoclax, and donor NK cells to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or certain AML-like syndromes. It’s designed mainly to find safe dosing and whether this approach can control the leukemia.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05735184RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib with AML medicines for NPM1- or KMT2A-mutated leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and tolerable ziftomenib is when combined with standard AML medicines (like venetoclax and azacitidine, and other chemo options) in people with AML. It’s for AML patients who have specific genetic changes (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement) and helps doctors find the best, safest dose plan.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05580601RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy trial for children with relapsed or stubborn AML
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a lab-made immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or did not respond to treatment. It aims to help the immune system attack leukemia cells in the bone marrow, especially when standard treatments have not worked.

This trial looks at blood and bone marrow samples from children and teens whose leukemia has come back or is hard to treat. The goal is to better understand the disease and guide future options for these patients.
Cleveland, OhioAges Up to 22 years - NCT04093570Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Extension study for people continuing ASTX727 from a prior trial
This study checks whether continuing ASTX727 for people who already benefited from it in an earlier Taiho study is safe and effective. It may be an option if you stayed on ASTX727 at the end of your parent study and your doctor felt it was helping you.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04049539RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vyxeos for AML that stays after initial chemotherapy
This trial tests whether Vyxeos (a type of chemotherapy) can treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that did not fully go away after standard induction (“7+3”) chemotherapy. It targets people whose leukemia is still present in the bone marrow and need a stronger “re-induction” treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT03874052RecruitingPhase 1

This early-phase study tests a combination of ruxolitinib with venetoclax, with or without azacitidine, for adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or does not respond to treatment. It may help by stopping cancer cells from growing and improving blood counts, with the exact plan guided by the study arm you’re assigned to.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03826992RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug Venetoclax plus Vyxeos for hard-to-treat leukemia
This Phase 1 study tests whether a combination of venetoclax and Vyxeos can treat children and young adults with certain relapsed or treatment-resistant acute leukemias. It may help shrink the leukemia or improve blood counts when standard treatments have not worked.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–39 - NCT03533816RecruitingPhase 1

What taking part in a refractory acute myeloid leukemia 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.
