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 want to find the best dose of TTI-101 that can be used safely alone and with other drugs for cancer. The people in this study have hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) that has metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (surgically unremovable).
Researchers are assessing the cellular therapy lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) in people with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). The people in this study have PCNSL that has not yet been treated. In addition, they cannot have autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). During ASCT, a patient's healthy, blood-forming cells are collected before treatment, stored, and returned after treatment with very strong chemotherapy.
Researchers are finding the best dose of ASP2138 to use in people with advanced digestive cancers. The people in this study have cancer of the pancreas, stomach (gastric cancer), or junction between the esophagus and stomach (gastroesophageal junction cancer). In addition, their cancers make a protein called CLDN 18.2 and keep growing even after treatment.
Pirtobrutinib works by blocking a protein called BTK, which helps cancer cells grow and survive. By blocking this protein, pirtobrutinib may help stop cancer cells from growing and spreading. It is taken orally (by mouth).
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug RMC-6236 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors containing mutations in the KRAS gene. RMC-6236 targets the KRAS protein made by the mutated gene. The KRAS protein sends signals that cause cancer cells to grow. RMC-6236 is designed to prevent the KRAS protein from sending these signals, and this blocking action may slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. RMC-6236 is taken orally (by mouth).

People with cancer often complain that their "mind does not seem to be clear." This can be due to stress, depression or anxiety, or physical problems, or may be due to some cancer treatments. The purpose of this study is to better understand the effects of cancer treatments on thinking (cognitive) abilities and memory in people with breast cancer over age 60. Thinking abilities and memory may decrease with age, and the effects of some treatments could make this problem worse in older people with breast cancer.

Researchers want to find the best schedule for giving a new vaccine to people with neuroblastoma. The people in this study have neuroblastoma that is in remission (no signs of cancer). In addition, their cancers have a strong chance of coming back (high risk). The vaccine is given with a naturally occurring substance called beta-glucan.
