Targeted triple-combination treatment for children with relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a multi-drug combination (ruxolitinib, venetoclax, dexamethasone, plus chemotherapy) for children whose blood cancer has come back or did not respond. It aims to reduce the cancer by targeting specific genetic changes and may offer a new option when standard treatments have not worked.
ViennaAges 1–21 - NCT06390319RecruitingPhase 2
Adding dasatinib or venetoclax for children with T-cell leukemia or lymphoma
This trial tests whether adding either dasatinib or venetoclax to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for children aged 1 to 18 with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoblastic lymphoma, or mixed phenotype acute leukemia. It compares the effects of these added drugs to help doctors find better treatment options.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 1–18 - NCT06289673RecruitingPhase 4

Imetelstat plus chemo for relapsed leukemia in kids
This trial tests a new drug called imetelstat combined with two chemotherapy drugs (fludarabine and cytarabine) for children and teens with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) that has come back or not responded to treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Cytarabine?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 156 recruiting studies that include Cytarabine, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Cytarabine trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Cytarabine an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Cytarabine or a specific trial is right for you.
