Thoracic surgeon Daniela Molena leads clinical trials to improve outcomes for people with esophageal cancers.
At any time Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is conducting hundreds of clinical trials to improve care for many types of cancer. Use the tool below to browse our clinical trials that are currently enrolling new patients. Each listing explains the purpose of the trial, the trial’s eligibility criteria, and how to get more information.
The list below includes clinical trials for adult cancers. Please visit our pediatric cancer care section to find a pediatric clinical trial.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug LOXO-435 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or continued to grow despite treatment and contain a change in the FGFR3 gene. LOXO-435 targets cells with this abnormality and blocks the activity of FGFR3, a protein that plays a role in cancer growth. Inhibiting this protein could slow or stop the growth of cancer. LOXO-435 is taken orally (by mouth).
This purpose of this study is to assess two interventions to improve cancer care for older adults with cancer. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of the two interventions, which each consist of four surveys, five telephone sessions, and four subsequent "booster" calls with a licensed mental health counselor. The five telephone sessions each last about 45-60 minutes; the booster calls each last approximately 20-30 minutes. These surveys will include questions about each patient's illness, quality of life, depression, anxiety, and attitudes about aging and can be done via computer or over the phone. Patients will be compensated for their participation.

Researchers want to find the best dose of HC-7366 to use alone and with belzutifan in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study have advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) that keeps growing after prior treatments. The cancer either cannot be removed (is inoperable) or has metastasized (spread). 
Deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) happens when a cell becomes unable to repair mistakes that happen during the normal process of cell division. Standard treatments for early-stage rectal cancer include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery. In this study, researchers are assessing the safety and effectiveness of giving the investigational immunotherapy dostarlimab first in people with locally advanced mismatch repair-deficient rectal cancer. Doctors will then evaluate patients' response to treatment before considering standard chemoradiation and/or surgery. Patients whose tumors respond completely to dostarlimab alone can be followed with close surveillance and no surgery. 
In addition, their cancers have a fusion (change) in the ALK gene. The fusion gene makes a protein that promotes cancer growth and survival. This type of cancer is called ALK-positive NSCLC.
Researchers want to find the best doses of different drugs to use together in people with advanced urothelial cancer. The people in this study have urothelial cancer that metastasized (spread) and has not yet been treated.
Researchers are assessing treatment with BGB-16673 in combination with other anti-cancer medications in people with B-cell cancers. These cancers include:
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as DS-8201A) in patients with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors that produce too much of a protein called HER2, including biliary tract, bladder, cervical, endometrial, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers.
Researchers are doing this study to see if the combination of epcoritamab, zanubrutinib, and rituximab works well against lymphoma. The people in this study have follicular lymphoma that has come back or keeps growing after treatment.
