Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–75 - NCT03555851Recruiting
Testing how post-transplant cyclophosphamide affects transplant outcomes
This study looks at whether giving a medicine called cyclophosphamide after a stem cell transplant helps work better and for whom. You may be eligible if you are planning a certain type of transplant and your team plans to give post-transplant cyclophosphamide.

PROMISE study: Predicting myeloma risk in high-risk groups
This study uses a blood test to find early signs of myeloma in people at higher risk, such as those with a family history or African ancestry. It aims to predict who might develop myeloma before symptoms appear.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30 years+ - NCT03568266Recruiting
Genetic study of liver injury from a leukemia medicine
This study looks at why some people develop liver problems while taking asparaginase, a common medicine used to treat newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The goal is to use genetic information to better understand and potentially prevent this side effect.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03523975RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing venetoclax, lenalidomide, and rituximab for new mantle cell lymphoma
This early-phase study tests a combination of venetoclax, lenalidomide, and rituximab in people newly diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma. It aims to control the lymphoma and see how safe and effective this approach is for newly treated patients.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03593759RecruitingPhase 3
Testing treatment for active cardiac sarcoidosis heart rhythm and function
This trial studies a treatment approach for people with active cardiac sarcoidosis, confirmed by specific heart rhythm/heart function problems and a PET scan. It may help by targeting the active inflammation driving heart conduction problems, rhythm events, or weak heart pumping.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT03633955RecruitingPhase 1
Imaging study for people with high-risk leukemia
This early (Phase 1) study tests how a special scan works in people with relapsed or hard-to-treat leukemia types. The scan uses a tracer called 18F FLT, and the study looks to see if it can be done safely (without sedation) and how it relates to treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 4–80 - NCT03541525Recruiting
Study on red blood cell-related diseases in families
This study looks at how red blood cells work in people who have a related condition—or who have family members with one. It may help researchers understand causes of these diseases and improve future care.
CotonouAges Any age - NCT03486873RecruitingPhase 3
Study extension for people on pembrolizumab, testing long-term safety
This trial follows people with advanced tumors who are already on pembrolizumab (or similar treatment) to check long-term safety and effectiveness. It may help your care team by monitoring benefits and side effects over a longer period.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03460977RecruitingPhase 1
Mevrometostat trial for hormone-resistant prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests mevrometostat (PF 06821497) in people with castration-resistant prostate cancer to see if it’s safe and how the body responds to it. It may be an option if your cancer is no longer controlled by hormone therapy and your organ health tests are within limits.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03308474Recruiting
Myeloma patient registry study for treatment experiences
This trial enrolls people with multiple myeloma who are starting (or have recently started) standard drug treatment, so researchers can collect real-world information about patients’ experiences and outcomes. It may help by improving future care planning and study designs, while adding an extra set of questionnaires to your routine.
Multiple SitesAges 18 years+ - NCT03328078RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Emavusertib for recurrent brain lymphoma after prior treatment
This Phase 1/2 trial tests emavusertib (a targeted medicine) in adults with primary central nervous system lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment. It’s designed to find safe dosing and see how well the treatment can control the lymphoma in the brain/spinal fluid.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03459534RecruitingPhase 3
Radotinib for CML patients after prior TKI failure
This trial tests radotinib (a targeted pill) in people with chronic-phase Philadelphia chromosome–positive CML whose previous TKIs stopped working or could not be tolerated. It aims to improve control of the leukemia while checking safety.
BarnaulAges 18 years+ - NCT03300830Recruiting
Testing tumors linked to viruses, HIV, and immune disorders
This study collects and analyzes tumor tissue to learn what drives certain cancers and growths linked to viruses, HIV, and immune system problems. Results may help researchers understand disease causes and point to better future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy made from your own immune cells, changed to recognize “neoantigens” on cancer cells. It’s designed for people with metastatic (advanced spread) solid cancers or certain other cancers who have tried standard treatments but cancer is still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT03297606RecruitingPhase 2
Match your tumor test to a targeted cancer drug
This trial studies whether giving a targeted cancer medicine based on tumor genetic/protein test results can help people with advanced, incurable cancers live longer. You may be eligible if your cancer has a “potentially actionable” change on testing and you meet health and follow-up requirements.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT03471260RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ivosidenib and venetoclax for IDH1-mutated leukemia or MDS
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether the medicines ivosidenib and venetoclax (with or without azacitidine) can help people with certain “IDH1-mutated” blood cancers like AML or high-risk MDS.
