Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT05651932RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an MMSET inhibitor for relapsed multiple myeloma
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug that targets MMSET in people whose multiple myeloma has returned or not responded to prior treatment. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink myeloma in this setting.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05730036RecruitingPhase 3
Linvoseltamab vs standard treatment for relapsed myeloma
This trial compares linvoseltamab against a standard combination (elotuzumab + pomalidomide + dexamethasone) in adults with multiple myeloma that has returned or not responded. It aims to find out whether linvoseltamab works better and is safe for people who have already had some myeloma treatments.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 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.

What taking part in a relapse 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 relapse clinical trials in North Carolina?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 73 recruiting relapse studies with a site in North Carolina, 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 relapse study in North Carolina?
- 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 North Carolina to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in North Carolina, 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 relapse 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.
