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.
Researchers are comparing taletrectinib with a placebo (inactive drug) in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The people in this study have stage 1B-3A NSCLC that has a ROS1 gene fusion. They have had the tumor completely removed with surgery.

Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the most effective treatments for prostate cancers that have spread to other organs (metastasized). The benefits of hormone treatments do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers continue to grow despite hormonal therapies; these are called "castration-resistant prostate cancers" (CRPC).

Researchers are assessing ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) to treat salivary gland cancer. The people in this study have cancer that is operable (can be removed with surgery) and makes a protein called HER2. T-DM1 targets cancer cells that make HER2. In this study, it will be combined with radiation therapy and chemotherapy after the tumor has been removed by surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of a specialized light treatment for children and adults with chronic graft-versus host disease (GVHD) of the mouth (oral GVHD) that has not improved after standard treatment. GVHD is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant. The newly transplanted donor cells attack the transplant recipient's body and cause serious health problems. Oral GVHD can cause mouth inflammation, pain, and sores.
Researchers want to find the best dose of CRD3874-SI to use in people with sarcoma or Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). The people in this study have sarcoma or MCC that has spread. CRD3874-SI attaches to a type of protein called a STING. This protein encourages immune cells to kill cancer cells, which may slow or stop cancer growth. CRD3874-SI is given intravenously (by vein).

Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is a substance taken up specifically by neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, or paraganglioma tumor cells. MIBG can be combined with radioactive iodine (131I) in the laboratory to form the radioactive compound 131I-MIBG. The 131I-MIBG compound concentrates more in cancer cells than in normal cells. It may therefore deliver more radiation directly to cancer cells while sparing normal organs.
Researchers want to see how well datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) works alone and with other drugs against cancer. The people in this study have endometrial, ovarian, or urothelial cancer that has metastasized (spread).
