Cure Leukaemia is proud to play a vital role in supporting blood cancer patients across Belfast. At Belfast City Hospital, we fund a dedicated clinical research nurse who ensures patients have access to pioneering treatments and potentially life-saving clinical trials.

Clinical Trials Taking Place In Belfast

Discover which clinical trials have been delivered in Bristol, with support of funding from Cure Leukaemia

VICTOR

The VICTOR trial is a groundbreaking clinical trial available at TAP Centres across the UK, comparing a combination of two targeted drugs to traditional chemotherapy. This trial, specifically designed for AML patients aged 60 and over, offered a less toxic and more manageable treatment option.

Fedora

Focused on patients with Myelofibrosis, the Fedora trial is tackling a critical area of unmet need, gathering information about whether a combination of treatments is tolerated, and whether it provides a therapeutic benefit to patients. The FEDORA Trial has now completed recruitment, with results expected to be published soon.

AMMO

One of the TAP Network’s highest recruiting studies, AMMO trial tests a new drug in treating and extending the lives of patients with a rare bone marrow cancer, where treatment options are very limited. The treatment can be taken orally at home, making it much more convenient for patients. The trial has just concluded and results are expected to be published at the end of 2025.

STELLAR

A Phase 2 randomised trial for adults with Richter’s syndrome, a rare and aggressive form of lymphoma. The STELLAR trial is the first randomised trial for Richter’s syndrome in the UK, and it demonstrates the nation’s growing ability to run trials in rare diseases. The study also includes crucial translational research that will help tailor future therapies.

As part of the Research team, we see everyday how valuable the contribution Cure Leukaemia makes towards supporting our roles and promoting new trials that seek to improve the lives and treatments of every person diagnosed with a blood cancer.
