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 seeing how well the drug FORE8394 works in people with advanced solid tumors, including brain tumors. The people in this study include adults and children with cancers that keep growing or came back even with treatment. Their tumors have mutations (changes or variants) in the BRAF gene.
Researchers are assessing how well erdafitinib works to treat gliomas that keep growing after treatment. The people in this study have glioma with a normal IDH gene and a fusion of two other genes (FGFR-TACC).

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combining pembrolizumab immunotherapy with standard chemotherapy drugs and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or continued to grow despite one regimen of prior therapy. Pembrolizumab blocks PD-1, a protein cancer cells use to evade detection by the immune system, thereby enabling the immune system to find and kill cancer cells.
Cancer that has spread from a solid tumor to the membranes lining the brain and spinal cord (leptomeninges) is called "leptomeningeal metastasis." Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is located between the leptomeninges, in a place called the "intrathecal space." Cancer cells within the CSF rely on iron for growth and survival. Researchers think that the study drug, deferoxamine (DFO), may be an effective treatment for leptomeningeal metastases because it helps remove iron from the body (including the CSF).
Teclistamab is given as an injection under the skin. The goal is to see if lower doses or stopping treatment will have the same benefit with fewer side effects.
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.
Researchers are assessing obinutuzumab in people with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) whose cancer responded to initial treatment. They want to see if obinutuzumab increases the time without the disease returning or getting worse. This type of treatment is called maintenance therapy.
