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.
Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the best treatments for prostate cancers that have metastasized (spread). The benefits of hormone treatments often do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
In this study, researchers are finding the highest dose of MQ710 to use safely in people with certain types of advanced cancer. The people in this study have solid tumors that came back or grew even after treatment. In a later part of the study, the researchers will assess MQ710 plus another drug called pembrolizumab.
The purpose of this study is to find out how cancer treatments (chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy) affect reproductive and sexual health in people with early-onset colorectal cancer (diagnosed before age 50). Researchers will observe and track changes in hormone levels and in sexual and reproductive health in the study participants. This information will help them learn more about how cancer treatments affect reproductive and sexual health, including the ability to have children (fertility).
Cetuximab binds to a protein called EGFR, which is found on some types of tumor cells. This drug may help keep tumor cells from growing. Pembrolizumab helps the body's immune system attack the tumor and may interfere with tumor growth and spread.
Researchers are assessing tepotinib with or without ramucirumab in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The people in this study have NSCLC that has metastasized (spread) or recurred (came back) after treatment. Their cancers also have a genetic change called the MET exon 14 skipping mutation.

Researchers want to find the best dose of RMC-9805 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancer that keeps growing even with treatment. The tumors also have a mutation (change) in the KRAS gene called G12D.
Researchers want to find the best dose of eganelisib when used alone and with cytarabine to treat leukemia. The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS) that has come back or keeps growing after treatment.          
A standard approach for early-stage rectal cancer is treatment with chemotherapy and radiation therapy followed by surgery. In this study, researchers are comparing two approaches to prevent the need for rectal resection (removal of all or nearly all of the rectum) in people with early rectal cancer: chemotherapy or chemotherapy and radiation with observation or limited surgery (removing only the area with the tumor, not the entire rectum).
