Parasite infection study for blood disorders
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study looks for parasitic infections in people with different blood disorders, including anemia and blood cancers. It aims to understand if parasites are more common in these patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial collects and studies blood samples from people with blood disorders. It may help researchers better understand blood conditions using lab testing rather than a new medication.
This study asks healthy adults to provide blood, bone marrow (if needed), skin, saliva, and stool samples. Scientists use these samples to compare patterns related to myeloid (bone-marrow) blood cancers, which may help future research and tests.
This study looks at how the immune system works in people who have—or might have—an increased risk of infections. It also enrolls their healthy blood relatives so researchers can compare immune features; results may help doctors understand who is at higher risk and why.
This study collects blood cells and bone marrow from people with immune system or blood disorders, and from healthy volunteers. Researchers will study these cells and may convert them into special stem cells (iPS cells) to better understand diseases and develop treatments.
This study evaluates and treats patients who may have a parasitic infection (an infection caused by parasites—tiny organisms that live in or on the body). Researchers will monitor your condition and provide care to help you get better.
This study looks at what leads to specific blood cancers and related blood disorders. If you have one of the listed conditions (or are being evaluated for it), you may be asked to join research that helps doctors understand why these illnesses happen.
