Anemia Trial Phases
36 research organizations are sponsoring anemia trials.
About Anemia
Anemia is a condition in which the blood lacks adequate healthy red blood cells to carry sufficient oxygen to tissues. Iron deficiency is the most common cause, affecting over 1.6 billion people worldwide. Treatment depends on the cause and may include iron supplementation, B12, or treating underlying conditions.
Clinical trials are advancing new treatments for anemia. Currently, 57 studies are recruiting a combined 34,716 participants across the United States. Research is being conducted by 36 organizations including Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, New York Blood Center, National Cancer Institute (NCI) and 33 others.
2026 Anemia Research Landscape
As of August 2026, the anemia clinical trial landscape includes 57 actively recruiting studies across 85 cities in the United States. These studies are collectively seeking 34,716 participants, with an average enrollment target of 609 per study.
The research spans multiple phases of development: 25 studies are in PHASE2, 11 studies are in PHASE3, 9 studies are in PHASE1, 5 studies are in PHASE4, 3 studies are in NA. The presence of Phase 3 trials indicates that some anemia treatments are in late-stage testing and may be approaching regulatory review.
Research is being led by 36 different organizations, including Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, New York Blood Center, National Cancer Institute (NCI), Kaiser Permanente, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), and 31 others. The large number of sponsors reflects significant research interest and investment in anemia treatment advancement.

Cancer in Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes
Background: A prospective cohort of Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome (IBMFS) will provide new information regarding cancer rates and types in these disorders. Pathogenic variant(s) in IBMFS genes are relevant to carcinogenesis in sporadic cancers. Patients with IBMFS who develop cancer differ in their genetic and/or environmental features from patients with IBMFS who do not develop cancer...
