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.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06523556RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Axatilimab with or without azacitidine for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug, axatilimab, given alone or with another drug (azacitidine) for people with advanced forms of blood cancers like certain leukemias and myelofibrosis. It may help if your disease has not responded to earlier treatments or if you are starting treatment for the first time.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06532058RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new drug for relapsed or hard-to-treat acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests an experimental drug called QHRD107 combined with other medicines for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the new combination is safe and helps control the leukemia.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 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.

Ponatinib for children with relapsed or hard-to-treat cancers
This trial tests a targeted therapy called ponatinib in children whose leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumor has come back or hasn't improved with standard treatments. The drug works by blocking signals that help cancer cells grow, and the study looks at how safe and effective it is for different cancer types.
GhentAges 1–17 - 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.

This trial tests a combination of targeted therapy (venetoclax) and chemotherapy (cladribine, cytarabine, G-CSF, mitoxantrone) for people with acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or not responded to previous treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help achieve remission.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT06680752RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
A car-t cell therapy trial for AML or MDS
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy, ARD103, for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that has come back or is not responding to treatment. It aims to see if this therapy can help control the disease.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03874052RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib plus venetoclax and azacitidine for relapsed AML
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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory acute myeloid leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 241 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.
