Recruiting studies in Florida
- NCT06660368RecruitingPhase 2
A study of a drug combo for relapsed or refractory AML
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 - NCT04616560RecruitingPhase 2
New drug for recurrent Wilms tumor, osteosarcoma, and DSRCT
This trial tests a targeted drug called trastuzumab deruxtecan for children and young adults with certain cancers that have come back or not responded to treatment. It may help if your tumor has not responded to standard therapies.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 12–39 - NCT03739814RecruitingPhase 2
Test inotuzumab, blinatumomab, and possibly ponatinib for CD22 ALL
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of medicines (inotuzumab ozogamicin and blinatumomab), with or without ponatinib, for people with CD22-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It aims to improve remission and control leukemia cells, including in the bone marrow.
Fort Lauderdale, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03618550RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma
This study tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab with a chemotherapy regimen called GVD for patients whose Hodgkin's lymphoma has not responded or has returned after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard approaches.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05531786RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pacritinib for hard-to-treat chronic graft-versus-host disease
This early-phase study tests pacritinib, a targeted medicine, for chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that hasn’t improved after prior treatments. If you qualify, the goal is to reduce cGVHD symptoms and improve how well you function after a stem cell transplant.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–120 - NCT06465316RecruitingPhase 1
Testing teclistamab with iberdomide for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (teclistamab and iberdomide) for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see how well this combination works and whether it can help control the disease.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06589804RecruitingPhase 3
Testing cetuximab plus pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding cetuximab to the standard drug pembrolizumab works better for head and neck cancer that has spread or come back after treatment. It is for people whose cancer did not respond to platinum chemotherapy and whose tumors have a certain immune marker (PD-L1).
Aventura, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07032727RecruitingPhase 2
Olutasidenib plus targeted therapy for relapsed IDH1-mutated myeloid cancers
This trial tests a combination of olutasidenib with other targeted drugs for people with certain blood cancers that have returned or not responded to treatment. It focuses on patients who have both an IDH1 mutation and a second activating mutation in specific signaling genes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05886036RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing rituximab vs mosunetuzumab for NLPHL
This trial compares two immunotherapy drugs, rituximab and mosunetuzumab, to see which works better for people with nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) who need treatment. It's for both newly diagnosed and previously treated patients.
Aventura, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05828069RecruitingPhase 2
Tovorafenib for young people with worsening Langerhans cell histiocytosis
This Phase 2 trial tests tovorafenib (DAY101) to treat children and young people whose Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is getting worse, came back, or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help by targeting certain gene changes found in the LCH.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 6 months–22 years - NCT05890352RecruitingPhase 2
Add new medicines to standard treatment for returning lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding tafasitamab, lenalidomide, tazemetostat, and zanubrutinib (along with standard lymphoma treatment) can improve outcomes in people whose large B-cell lymphoma has returned or not responded. It may help control disease more effectively and improve response duration for eligible patients.
Fort Lauderdale, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05633615RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new drug options after CAR T for aggressive lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding or switching drug treatments after CAR T-cell therapy can improve outcomes for people with certain aggressive lymphomas that have come back or did not respond. It mainly looks at who remains disease-stable/partly improved after CAR T and what treatment approach works best next.

What taking part in a refractory cancer 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.

Common questions
- Are there refractory cancer clinical trials in Florida?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 36 recruiting refractory cancer studies with a site in Florida, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a refractory cancer study in Florida?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Florida to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Florida, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a refractory cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New refractory cancer studies open in Florida regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
