Recruiting studies
- NCT07270978RecruitingPhase 1
CD33-targeting cells for leukemia with leftover cancer cells
This trial tests a new treatment using special immune cells that target a protein called CD33 on leukemia cells. It's for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who still have small amounts of cancer cells left after other treatments.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07565220RecruitingPhase 1
Thiotepa-based stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests a new chemotherapy preparation (using thiotepa) before a stem cell transplant from a matched donor to treat blood cancers like leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. The goal is to improve survival while reducing severe side effects.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01515527RecruitingPhase 2
Cladribine plus low-dose cytarabine and decitabine for AML or MDS
This Phase 2 study tests a combination chemotherapy plan (cladribine, low-dose cytarabine, and decitabine) for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It aims to shrink the leukemia/MDS and improve outcomes, including for certain people who may not tolerate standard treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 60 years+ - NCT02143830RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant chemotherapy for Fanconi anemia
This Phase 2 study tests a stem cell transplant approach using adjusted chemotherapy doses for people with Fanconi anemia. It may help replace damaged bone marrow and treat blood problems like severe aplastic anemia, MDS, or leukemia.
New York, New YorkAges 3 months+ - NCT07566377RecruitingPhase 2
Cord Blood Transplant for Children and Young Adults With Blood Cancer
This study tests whether using cord blood stem cells (collected from umbilical cords after birth) can help treat high-risk blood cancers in children and young adults when a matched donor is not quickly available. Cord blood transplants may help prevent cancer from coming back.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 26 years - NCT07588360Recruiting
Stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome
This trial tests a type of stem cell transplant (using cells from a partially matched donor and umbilical cord blood) for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The goal is to help patients whose disease is high-risk, has returned after treatment, or hasn't responded well to chemotherapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 14–60 - NCT05549661RecruitingPhase 1
Onvansertib for hard-to-treat CMML and MDS/MPN
This Phase 1 study tests onvansertib to see if it can help people with repeat or treatment-resistant chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) and MDS/MPN overlap. It also studies side effects and gathers blood/bone marrow samples to better understand how the treatment works.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04140487RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drugs for certain FLT3-mutated blood cancers that have returned
This trial tests a combination of three medicines—azacitidine, venetoclax, and gilteritinib—in people with specific gene changes (FLT3 mutations) in leukemia and related bone marrow diseases that have come back or are hard to treat. The goal is to see if this drug combination can control the disease and improve outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT07523555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Dual-Target CAR-T Cells for Blood Cancers That Haven't Responded to Treatment
This study tests a new type of cell therapy called CAR-T cells that are designed to target two different proteins on cancer cells. These cells are made from your own immune cells, trained in the lab, and then put back into your body to fight blood cancers that have come back or stopped responding to previous treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for refractory myelodysplastic syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 107 recruiting refractory myelodysplastic syndrome 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 myelodysplastic syndrome 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 myelodysplastic syndrome 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.
