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 see if the drug pasireotide works well to treat prolactinomas. Prolactinomas are noncancerous pituitary gland tumors that make too much prolactin. Prolactin is a hormone that causes the body to make less estrogen and testosterone (sex hormones).
The purpose of this study is to see how well sotorasib works in people with advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a mutation (change) in the KRAS G12C gene. This mutation can cause cancer cells to grow. In addition, the people in this study have not received treatment for their cancer since it became advanced.

In people born with certain genetic mutations or whose tumors have these mutations, the standard treatment for breast cancer with CDK4/6 inhibitors (like palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib) might not be as effective. However, their tumors may still respond to a different type of drug called PARP inhibitors.
The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of fianlimab, cemiplimab, and ipilimumab works well against melanoma. The people in this study have melanoma that is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery) or metastatic (spread). In addition, their cancer keeps growing even after treatment that included immunotherapy.

Cushing's syndrome occurs when the adrenal glands produce too much of the "stress hormone" known as cortisol. This can be caused by a tumor which develops in the pituitary gland and secretes a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Cushing's syndrome can also be caused by an ACTH-secreting tumor elsewhere in the body, or by a tumor in the adrenal glands that makes cortisol.
