CAR-T therapy for relapsed CD19+ B-cell cancers
This trial tests a new type of CAR-T cell therapy for people with certain B-cell cancers (leukemia or lymphoma) that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if these specially engineered immune cells can attack and destroy the cancer.

This study tests a new drug, XS-04, for people with certain blood cancers (like B-cell lymphoma, AML, or MDS) that have come back or not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can help shrink tumors or control the disease.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06765876RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for CD123+ blood cancers
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR T-cells that target a protein called CD123 on cancer cells. It is for people with certain blood cancers (AML, MDS-IB2, BPDCN, or ALL) that have come back or not responded to other treatments.
PragueAges 18–70 - NCT06708897RecruitingPhase 1
Study of lonitoclax for returning B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug, lonitoclax, in people with certain B-cell blood cancers that have come back or not responded to earlier treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help control the disease.

SupCD7 CART therapy for CD7 positive blood cancers
This trial tests a special immune cell therapy (SupCD7 CART) that targets a protein called CD7 on cancer cells. It is for people with certain types of blood cancers (like T-ALL/LBL or AML) that have come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07284433RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Donor cell therapy for B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a new treatment made from donor cells that target two proteins (CD19 and CD20) found on certain blood cancer cells. It may be an option for people whose B-cell lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia has come back or hasn't responded to at least two prior treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06943872RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing new treatments for relapsed CLL or SLL
This study tests a combination of sonrotoclax plus obinutuzumab or rituximab versus the current standard venetoclax plus rituximab for people whose CLL or SLL has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see which approach helps keep the cancer from growing longer.
Laguna Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07433400Recruiting
Long-term study of adults with Ph+ ALL who relapsed or didn't respond
This trial follows adults with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) that has come back or hasn't gotten better with treatment. It aims to understand how people do over time and what factors affect their health.
Pierre-BéniteAges 18 years+ - NCT06346912RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a special type of immune therapy called CD19-BAFF CAR-T cells for people whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma has come back or not responded to standard treatment. The therapy uses your own modified immune cells to target and kill cancer cells.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT04532268RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD19 CAR-T for relapsed or resistant B-cell blood cancers
This early-phase study tests “humanized” CD19 CAR-T therapy for people whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or B-cell lymphoma (NHL) has come back or didn’t respond. It’s designed to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells carrying the CD19 marker.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 3–75 - NCT05289687RecruitingPhase 2
Daratumumab for hard-to-clear T-cell leukemia traces
This Phase 2 trial tests daratumumab (a targeted antibody medicine) in people with T-cell ALL whose leukemia is not fully gone at very low levels. The goal is to eliminate “minimal residual disease” (MRD) that can predict relapse, so treatment may be more effective after intensive chemotherapy.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05601726RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This early study tests a new medicine (ABD-3001) to see if it’s safe and tolerable, how the body handles it, and whether it shows early signs of helping people with relapsed or hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS. It may be an option if standard treatments have already failed and you can’t receive a stem cell transplant.
Marseille, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT05442515RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell treatment for hard-to-treat B-cell cancers in youth
This trial tests a personalized immune-cell therapy (CAR T cells) made to attack B-cell cancers that have come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is in children and young adults.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–39 - NCT03383575RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine plus enasidenib for IDH2-mutant MDS
This trial tests whether combining azacitidine with enasidenib helps people with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that has an IDH2 mutation. It’s designed for people who are either new to “hypomethylating” treatment or whose MDS returned/worsened after it.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT04186520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell treatment for hard-to-treat B-cell lymphomas
This trial studies a type of lab-made immune cell therapy (CAR T) using cells called CAR-20/19-T. It is for adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell cancers, aiming to reduce or eliminate lymphoma in people whose disease has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18–80 - NCT03676504RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T cell therapy for relapsed CD19 blood cancers
This trial tests a type of personalized immune treatment (CD19 CAR T cells made from your T cells) for adults (and children with ALL) whose CD19-positive blood cancer has come back or didn’t respond. It may help your immune system recognize and attack cancer cells that still have CD19.

Testing a new CAR-T therapy for B-cell blood cancers
This study tests a new CAR-T cell therapy called DuoCAR20.19.22-D95 for people with certain blood cancers (like lymphoma and ALL) that have come back or haven't responded to multiple treatments. It aims to see if this therapy is safe and can help shrink or control the cancer.
Westwood, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06911710RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Car-T therapy for relapsed blood cancers
This trial tests whether CAR-T cells, a type of immunotherapy that targets specific markers on cancer cells, can treat blood cancers that have come back or not responded to standard treatment. It may offer a new option for people with lymphoma, leukemia, or multiple myeloma.

Oral drug test for relapsed or refractory B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 trial studies LP-168 taken by mouth in people whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond to treatment. The study aims to find how the drug works, the right dose, and what side effects to expect.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05476770RecruitingPhase 1
Tagraxofusp for children with CD123-positive leukemia
This study tests tagraxofusp, a medicine that targets a marker called CD123 on cancer cells, in children and young adults whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or is resistant to treatment. It may help by shrinking the cancer and improving disease control after standard therapies have not worked.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–21 - NCT04771572RecruitingPhase 1
Oral drug LP-118 for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an oral (by mouth) drug called LP-118 in people whose blood cancers have returned or did not respond to prior treatment. The goal is to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink or control the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 13 years+ - NCT05332054Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory leukemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 239 recruiting refractory 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 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 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.
