Recruiting studies
- NCT05735717RecruitingPhase 2
T-cell transplant using depleted receptors for blood cancers
This Phase 2 study tests a specialized stem cell transplant that removes certain immune “T-cell” receptors to help treat blood cancers like acute leukemia. It may help your body rebuild a healthier immune system after high-dose treatment.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 60 years - NCT05674539Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Less intense transplant regimen for AML or MDS patients
This trial tests whether a less intense chemotherapy and transplant plan can work for adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who are getting a stem cell transplant. It may help reduce transplant-related harm, especially in people considered higher risk due to age or other health factors.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05564390RecruitingPhase 2
MyeloMATCH screening to match you to AML or MDS treatment
This study screens people with newly suspected acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) to see which treatment approach fits best—either a specific study treatment or standard care. It may help by directing you to the right option and by sharing your blood/bone marrow samples for research.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05504291RecruitingPhase 2
Treatment delivered inside the eye for retinoblastoma
This Phase 2 study tests a way to deliver cancer treatment directly inside the eye to treat retinoblastoma. It may help shrink the tumor while limiting treatment to the eye when possible.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 18 years - NCT01962415RecruitingPhase 2
Reduced-intensity stem cell transplant for non-cancer disorders
This trial tests whether a gentler (reduced-intensity) conditioning treatment before a stem cell transplant works for non-cancer diseases. It uses specific donor stem cell matches and checks heart, lung, liver, and kidney function to help lower transplant stress while still aiming for benefit.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 2 months–55 years - NCT00692939RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell transplant for people with Crohn’s who need new options
This trial studies whether an “autologous” stem cell transplant (using your own cells) can improve Crohn’s disease that has not responded to standard treatments. It may help people who have ongoing, hard-to-control Crohn’s even after medicines and/or who have complications that make surgery risky.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 10–60 - NCT05436418RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lower-dose transplant medicines to prevent graft-versus-host disease
This early-phase study tests a lower dose of cyclophosphamide given after a stem cell transplant to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). It also uses sirolimus and mycophenolate to improve how well the donor immune system accepts the transplant, aiming to reduce side effects while keeping protection against GVHD.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12–120 - NCT04483206RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized (tailored) autologous stem cell transplant for people with multiple myeloma or related plasma cell diseases. The goal is to see how safe it is and how well it works, using your own stem cells.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04332874RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with local limb chemotherapy for sarcoma in arms or legs
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab along with chemotherapy delivered directly into an arm or leg (isolated limb infusion) can shrink sarcoma tumors. It is for people with advanced or metastatic sarcoma in an arm or leg who can safely have this local treatment.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 12 years+ - NCT04370301RecruitingPhase 2
Reduced-intensity stem cell transplant with JAK inhibitor for myelofibrosis
This study tests giving a JAK inhibitor before and after a reduced-intensity stem cell transplant to treat primary or secondary myelofibrosis. The goal is to improve disease control while using a less harsh transplant approach.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–70 - NCT04150042RecruitingPhase 1
Test of chemotherapy plus your own stem cells for metastatic cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a treatment approach using standard chemotherapy along with stem cells taken from you to treat metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer. It is mainly designed to check safety and find the best way to give the treatment, and it may offer an option for people whose cancer has spread.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04022239RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bendamustine to prevent transplant immune complications
This early-phase study tests whether giving the drug bendamustine (with or without another chemo drug) can lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. GVHD is an immune reaction where the donor’s cells attack your body. If it works and is safe, it could improve outcomes after transplant.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT03579875RecruitingPhase 2
Testing an inherited bone marrow transplant approach for rare blood disorders
This Phase 2 study tests a special “T-cell depleted” transplant plan for people with inherited bone marrow failure disorders (Fanconi anemia or T-Beta-thalassemia—or “TBD”). It may help restore healthy blood production while lowering the chance of certain transplant complications.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 65 years - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12 months–30 years - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT01804634RecruitingPhase 2
Reduced-intensity stem cell transplant for high-risk solid tumors
This trial tests a less intense type of bone marrow (stem cell) transplant from a partly matched family donor for people with high-risk solid tumors. It aims to lower treatment intensity while still using the donor’s immune system to help control the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 1–50
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Melphalan?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 64 recruiting studies that include Melphalan, 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 Melphalan 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 Melphalan 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 Melphalan or a specific trial is right for you.
