LondonAges Any age - NCT04691284Recruiting
Test how the gut microbiome changes during major cancer treatment
This study looks at your gut “microbiome” (the bacteria in your intestines) while you receive high-dose chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant, or CAR-T cell therapy. Researchers hope to understand how these treatments affect the microbiome, which may relate to how well patients do.
Bratislava, SlovakiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04684368RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for children and young adults with a brain tumor
This trial tests a new treatment approach for a rare brain tumor called NGGCT. It aims to see if a different way of treating the tumor can be effective and safe for children and young adults.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–29 - NCT04708054RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Venetoclax with busulfan chemo for high-risk AML or MDS
This study tests whether adding venetoclax to a specific busulfan-based chemotherapy plan improves outcomes for people with high-risk AML or MDS. It mainly targets patients whose leukemia/marrow disease still has high-risk features or measurable disease after initial treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT04691622RecruitingPhase 1
Treat chronic norovirus using donor immune cells
This Phase 1 study tests whether giving immune cells made from a donor can help children and adults with long-lasting (chronic) norovirus infection. It’s aimed at people whose immune system is weakened after a stem cell transplant, solid organ transplant, or due to primary immune problems.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 3 months–80 years - NCT04707300RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HTLP injection to speed immune recovery after cord blood transplant
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether a specific immune-cell “starter” injection (HTLP) can help adults rebuild their immune system faster after an umbilical cord blood transplant for blood cancers. It mainly focuses on safety and whether immune recovery improves.
ParisAges 18–66 - NCT04742634RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Preemptive drug DEC-C after transplant to reduce hidden cancer
This trial tests whether giving DEC-C (a decitabine-based treatment) soon after an allogeneic transplant can improve outcomes for MDS patients who still have “measurable residual disease” (hidden leftover disease) detectable by a genetic test. It also compares this approach to standard observation if the hidden disease is not detected or if the higher-risk safety checks are not met.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–75 - NCT07616154RecruitingPhase 2
Gene-Matched Family Stem Cell Transplant for Severe Sickle Cell
This trial tests whether a stem cell transplant from a partially gene-matched family member can cure severe sickle cell disease in children and young adults. The transplant uses a new approach that may work even when a perfectly matched sibling isn't available, and it might help patients whose sickle cell is causing serious complications like strokes, organ damage, or frequent pain crises.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 22 years - NCT04627428RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem-cell–made eye tissue transplant for dry macular degeneration
This early-stage study tests whether a stem-cell–derived transplant to the back of the eye is safe and tolerable in people with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). If you qualify, you may receive the transplant and have close follow-up to watch for side effects.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT04628026RecruitingPhase 3
Venetoclax plus chemotherapy for new AML or high-risk MDS
This trial tests adding venetoclax to standard chemotherapy to help people with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk MDS (MDS-EB-2) live longer and reduce cancer activity. You may benefit if you’re eligible for intensive chemotherapy and meet specific blood, organ, and treatment timing requirements.
InnsbruckAges 18–75 - NCT04656080Recruiting
Test heart and lung exercise capacity after transplant
This study uses a treadmill or stationary bike test to measure how well your heart and lungs work after a heart transplant. It may help researchers see whether this type of testing is safe and useful in transplant follow-up.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04645199Recruiting
Long-term follow-up study for blood and bone marrow diseases
This study is collecting long-term follow-up information from people diagnosed with certain blood and bone marrow conditions. It may help doctors understand what happens over time and improve future care, but you’re mainly contributing data rather than receiving a new treatment.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT04644016RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant for children and young adults with blood cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies using a cord blood transplant after finding it is risky enough that standard treatment may not be sufficient. It may help certain children and young adults with specific leukemia, lymphoma, and some non-cancer blood/immune or inherited disorders who do not have a well-matched donor available in time.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 21 years - NCT04678401RecruitingPhase 1
Trial tests transplant using a half-matched donor for high-risk leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests a special bone marrow transplant using a related “half-matched” donor (haploidentical), without a specific immune-suppressing medicine (“IS-free”). It’s for adults with certain high-risk AML or MDS to see if this approach can improve control of the disease while tracking safety.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT07493161Recruiting
