Exercise program for kids and young adults in stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program (“TEAM Me”) can improve movement and mobility during and after a blood stem cell transplant in young people with cancer. It may help reduce stiffness and weakness so you can move more comfortably during treatment.
Dallas, TexasAges 6–29 - NCT04679012RecruitingPhase 2
Polatuzumab plus chemotherapy for Richter’s transformation
This trial studies whether polatuzumab added to chemotherapy can improve outcomes in people whose CLL/SLL has transformed into a type of aggressive lymphoma called DLBCL. It may help shrink tumors and control the disease after this transformation.

CNCT19 cell therapy for relapsed or refractory ALL
This Phase 2 study tests an infusion of modified immune cells (CNCT19) in people with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that has come back or did not respond to treatment. It may help by targeting leukemia cells that have a specific marker called CD19.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT04687176RecruitingPhase 2

This Phase 2 study tests an oral form of arsenic trioxide in people newly diagnosed with APL (a specific leukemia subtype). It aims to see how well this frontline treatment works and whether it can be given safely.
Hong KongAges Any age - NCT04687956Recruiting
Preventing arm swelling after breast cancer lymph node surgery
This study looks at ways to prevent arm swelling (lymphedema) related to breast cancer after surgery to remove lymph nodes. It may help people who are getting axillary lymph node dissection lower the chance of long-term swelling.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT04690439Recruiting
Light therapy to treat breast cancer–related arm swelling
This trial studies whether a noninvasive light-based treatment (photobiomodulation) can reduce breast cancer–related lymphedema, which is swelling in the arm or chest area due to lymph fluid buildup. If you qualify, you’ll be asked to follow a set treatment and follow-up schedule to see if symptoms improve safely.
Hasselt, LimburgAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04704323RecruitingPhase 1
CAP-100 drug study for hard-to-treat CLL after prior treatments
This early-phase (Phase 1) study tests CAP-100 in adults with CLL or SLL that has come back or did not respond to at least two previous treatments. The goal is to see how the drug works and whether it is safe enough to keep studying.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04707261RecruitingPhase 4
Testing how dapagliflozin affects anemia in heart failure
This trial studies whether dapagliflozin (a heart-failure medicine) can improve anemia in people with heart failure. It may help explain why some patients feel better and how anemia changes when this medicine is used.
Xiangtan, HunanAges 18–100 - 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 - NCT04712539RecruitingPhase 2
Baloxavir and oseltamivir for severe flu in immune-compromised people
This trial tests whether two flu medicines—baloxavir and oseltamivir—work better to treat influenza in people with weakened immune systems (like transplant or blood cancer patients). It may help reduce severe complications, especially when flu affects the lungs or is at high risk to do so.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT04716452RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a ceramide liposome drug for relapsed or resistant AML
This Phase 1 trial tests a new targeted treatment (C6 ceramide in a tiny fat-like capsule) for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or did not respond to treatment. The goal is to see how the drug works and how safe it is in this setting.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04728841Recruiting
Gene therapy trial for Chinese hemophilia A
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy treatment (GS001) to help people with hemophilia A make more of the clotting factor they lack. If it works and is safe for you, it could improve how well blood clots form over time.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT04741945RecruitingPhase 2
Metformin to help prevent leukemia in certain blood disorders
This Phase 2 study tests whether metformin can lower the risk of leukemia developing in people with low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS) or CCUS. You may be considered if your blood counts have stayed low and other causes have been ruled out.
Copenhagen, Copenhagen NAges 18 years+ - NCT04744116RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cord blood cell therapy added to ruxolitinib for steroid-resistant GVHD
This trial studies whether adding cord-blood–derived cells to ruxolitinib can improve steroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) affecting the lower gut or liver. It’s meant for people who are not getting better (or are worsening) despite adequate steroid treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 12–80 - NCT04745195Recruiting
Study of complement activity in microangiopathy affecting kidneys
This study looks at signs of a clotting problem in tiny blood vessels (called TMA) that can affect kidney function. The goal is to better understand the role of the body’s complement system and how it relates to different causes of this illness.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04746066Recruiting
Study of thalassemia, sickle cell, and inherited anemia with COVID
This observational study looks at people with thalassemia, sickle cell disease, or other inherited anemia who have COVID-19. It aims to learn how COVID affects these conditions and may help improve care planning.
GenovaAges Any age - NCT04746209RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab after transplant for high-risk B-ALL patients
This trial tests blinatumomab, an immune therapy, in young people with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after their transplant or when they are getting ready for transplant. The goal is to lower the chance of the leukemia coming back by targeting remaining leukemia cells.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Up to 25 years - NCT04747912RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy-free early treatment for Ph+ ALL using inotuzumab
This Phase 2 trial tests a treatment strategy for newly diagnosed Ph+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that avoids traditional chemotherapy during the early “induction” phase, using inotuzumab ozogamicin instead. If it works, it could help control the leukemia while reducing exposure to chemotherapy early on.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04752826RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing BI-1808 plus Keytruda for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new cancer medicine (BI-1808) either alone or together with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in people with advanced cancers. It may help by strengthening the immune system’s attack on cancer, especially if standard treatments are no longer working or aren’t suitable.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04758975RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax plus rituximab plus ibrutinib for early CLL
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of three medicines to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that has not been treated before and where the goal is to achieve very low remaining disease. It may help some people stay in remission longer, but eligibility depends on your age, organ function, and prior treatments.
Milan, MIAges 18–65 - NCT04767048RecruitingPhase 2
Robot or laser tongue scraping plus tonsil removal to assess lymph nodes
This trial looks at whether a more precise procedure—removing a small area of tongue lining using a robot or laser, along with tonsil removal—can find the likely source of stubborn swollen neck lymph nodes. It’s designed for people with signs of head-and-neck cancer in lymph nodes, but no clear primary tumor found yet.
