The blood cancer trial landscape in 2026
"Blood cancer" covers three broad lineages: the leukemias (acute and chronic, myeloid and lymphoid), the lymphomas (Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin), and plasma-cell and myeloid neoplasms (multiple myeloma, MDS, myelofibrosis). These are the leading edge of cell and immune therapy — CAR-T, bispecific antibodies, and targeted small molecules — and many programs move across several subtypes at once. A complete hematologic view tracks the major lineages and the high-volume subtypes together.
Active blood cancer trials by subtype
Categories overlap (leukemia includes AML/ALL/CLL; the lymphoma total is the full lymphoma hub), so the rows below do not sum to the total above. Each links to a dedicated landscape page.

| Multiple Myeloma | 564 | 284 | 77 |
| Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) | 275 | 155 | 14 |
| Myelofibrosis | 90 | 50 | 10 |
Leukemia subtypes
| Subtype | Active | Recruiting | Phase 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) | 450 | 262 | 28 |
| Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) | 272 | 160 | 22 |
| Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) | 219 | 104 | 33 |

What we monitor
Our pipeline pulls from ClinicalTrials.gov every day. For a blood cancer watch profile, alerts can be configured for:
- New study registrations and status changes (e.g. opened to recruiting, completed)
- Protocol changes — enrollment, endpoints, phase, and completion-date movements
- New sponsor entrants into a subtype
- Phase filters (Phase 1 for novel mechanisms, Phase 3 for registration programs)
- Sponsor-type filters (large pharma vs. emerging biotech vs. academic)
