Recruiting studies near Boston
- NCT05006716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for certain B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies the safest dose and then effectiveness of BGB-16673 in people with specific B-cell malignancies. It may help by targeting cancer cells in these blood cancers, especially after other treatments like BTK inhibitors.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07024706RecruitingPhase 2
Study of acalabrutinib plus venetoclax for relapsed CLL
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs for people with CLL or SLL whose cancer returned after first treatment with a similar type of therapy. The goal is to see if this approach works well with a fixed treatment duration.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–130 - NCT07052695RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Mosunetuzumab for clearing CLL cells after other treatments
This study tests a drug called mosunetuzumab to see if it can clear remaining cancer cells (minimal residual disease) in people with CLL or SLL who have already had certain treatments. It may help those whose blood tests show very low levels of leftover disease after BTK inhibitor or BCL2 inhibitor therapy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06564038RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD0486 alone or with other drugs for B-cell cancers
This trial tests a new drug called AZD0486, alone or with other medicines, for people with certain types of B-cell cancers that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see how safe and effective it is.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06973187RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drugs for CLL or SLL after prior treatment
This trial tests a new drug (BGB-16673) against another drug (pirtobrutinib) for people with CLL or SLL that hasn't responded to or has come back after a prior BTK inhibitor treatment. The goal is to see which drug is more effective and safe.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06588478RecruitingPhase 2
Study of pirtobrutinib for CLL or SLL
This trial tests a new drug called pirtobrutinib for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). It is for those whose cancer has come back or not responded to treatment, including a prior BTK inhibitor, and also for those who have never been treated but have a specific genetic change (17p deletion).
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06333262RecruitingPhase 2
Fixed-duration pirtobrutinib and obinutuzumab for untreated CLL
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, pirtobrutinib (a pill) and obinutuzumab (an infusion), given for a set period of time in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have not had any previous treatment for their disease. The goal is to see if this combination can control the cancer effectively.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07061951RecruitingPhase 2
Mirdametinib for relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL
This trial tests a drug called mirdametinib for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or not responded to at least two prior treatments, including a BTK inhibitor and a BCL2 inhibitor. The goal is to see if mirdametinib can help shrink the cancer or slow its growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06849713RecruitingPhase 2
New combination treatments for CLL or SLL
This trial tests two different combinations of targeted drugs for people with CLL or SLL who have not had prior treatment for their disease. The goal is to see if these combinations are safe and effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01804686RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term ibrutinib follow-up with or without nivolumab
This study looks at how safe and effective ibrutinib is over the long term, either alone or together with nivolumab. You may join if you are already in an earlier ibrutinib study and your care team feels staying on ibrutinib is worth the risk.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04560322RecruitingPhase 2
Test of venetoclax and obinutuzumab with or without acalabrutinib
This Phase 2 study tests venetoclax plus obinutuzumab, and whether adding acalabrutinib (or not) improves outcomes for people with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL. It aims to see which combination works best and is safe for patients whose leukemia has returned or not responded.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03824483RecruitingPhase 2
Testing three drugs for CLL, SLL, or mantle cell lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax together in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). It aims to shrink cancer and improve control of the disease, especially when treatment choices are limited.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03666000RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a CD19 CAR T cell treatment for relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and best dose of a CD19 CAR T cell therapy (azer-cel) in people whose B-cell blood cancer has returned or did not respond to treatment. It may help people with relapsed/refractory B-ALL or certain aggressive or large B-cell lymphomas, including after or before prior CAR T treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04269902RecruitingPhase 3
Early treatment check for high-risk CLL/SLL
This Phase 3 trial studies an early treatment approach for people with high-risk CLL or SLL who have not yet needed standard therapy. It aims to see if treating earlier can improve outcomes while keeping side effects manageable.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05168930RecruitingPhase 2
Zanubrutinib plus venetoclax for relapsed CLL or SLL
This Phase 2 study tests how well zanubrutinib (a targeted pill) combined with venetoclax (another targeted pill) works for adults with CLL/SLL that came back or progressed after prior treatment. It may help by stopping cancer cells through two different pathways, aiming to shrink disease and improve blood counts.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 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.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 13 years+ - NCT05602363RecruitingPhase 1
Docirbrutinib for CLL or lymphoma after prior treatments
This Phase 1 study tests docirbrutinib, a targeted pill treatment, in people with CLL/SLL or certain other B-cell lymphomas that have come back or didn’t respond to earlier therapy. The goal is to see whether it’s safe and whether it can control the disease after standard treatments have failed.

What taking part in a small lymphocytic lymphoma 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.
