Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221500RecruitingPhase 2
Study of NX-5948 for advanced CLL or SLL
This trial tests an experimental drug called NX-5948 for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has come back or not responded to prior treatments. It's for those who have already tried a BTK inhibitor and a BCL-2 inhibitor.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06136559RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Nemtabrutinib vs ibrutinib or acalabrutinib for untreated CLL/SLL
This trial tests a new drug, nemtabrutinib, against two standard treatments for people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who haven't had treatment yet. The goal is to see if the new drug works better at controlling the disease.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06533579RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for CD19-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a new gene therapy treatment for people with certain types of leukemia or lymphoma that have the CD19 marker and have not responded to other treatments. The therapy uses a virus to deliver a gene to target and kill cancer cells.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 13–90 - 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 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.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 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.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 13 years+ - NCT05131022RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NX-5948 for relapsed B-cell blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests NX-5948 in adults whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment works in different types of B-cell malignancies.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 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.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06520098RecruitingPhase 2
BTK inhibitor with or without venetoclax for CLL/SLL
This trial tests whether adding venetoclax to your current BTK inhibitor (like ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib) works better than taking the BTK inhibitor alone. It's for veterans with CLL or SLL who have been on a BTK inhibitor for at least six months and have not had their disease get worse on that therapy.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - 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).
Greenville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06860880Recruiting
Personalized program to fight cancer-related fatigue
This trial tests a personalized supportive care program that combines exercise, nutrition, and coaching to help reduce fatigue in people with certain slow-growing lymphomas. It aims to improve energy and quality of life.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 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.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 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.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18–130 - 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.
Goldsboro, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05107674RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for advanced cancers that have limited options
This Phase 1 study tests NX-1607 in adults with advanced cancers that are hard to treat with standard care. It focuses on safety and early signs of how well the drug may work in specific cancer types.

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.
