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.
CAR T-cell therapy is a form of immunotherapy used to treat some adults with lymphoma. The treatment involves utilizing a patient's own T cells and genetically modifying them in the laboratory to recognize a protein on their cancer cells. The modified T cells, known as CAR T cells, are then returned to the patient to find and kill cancerous cells throughout the body.
Researchers are assessing a new type of therapy in young people with solid tumors that keep growing even after treatment. The therapy is called afamitresgene autoleucel. The people in this study have synovial sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), neuroblastoma, or osteosarcoma. In addition, they have tested positive for the HLA-A*02 gene and their cancers make a protein called MAGE-A4. This protein plays a role in cancer growth.
The purpose of this study is to see if delivering laser light directly to the prostate to activate a light-sensitive drug is a safe and effective treatment for prostate cancer that has come back after radiation therapy. The goal of this treatment is to eliminate any remaining prostate cancer cells. This approach is a form of photodynamic therapy (PDT).
Researchers are assessing different doses of FT825 alone or with cetuximab to treat people with advanced solid tumors. Their tumors have high levels of the HER2 protein. Altered HER2 proteins can fuel cancer growth.
Researchers are seeking the best dose of revumenib (SNDX-5613) to give with chemotherapy in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The people in this study have AML that has not yet been treated. In addition, their cancers have a mutation (change) in the KMT2Ar, NPM1c, or NUP98r gene.
Researchers are doing this study to see how well sotorasib gets into metastatic brain tumors. The people in this study have tumors in the brain that have spread there from other parts of the body. They are planning to have the brain metastases removed with surgery. In addition, their tumors have a mutation (change) in the KRAS gene (KRAS G12C+).
This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combination chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy in children and young adults with newly diagnosed stage II-IV diffuse anaplastic Wilms' tumors (DAWT) or favorable histology Wilms' tumors (FHWT) that have come back (relapsed).
The purpose of this study is to compare two different approaches to surgery for children and adults with osteosarcoma (bone cancer) that has spread (metastasized) to the lungs. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two techniques:
Studies have shown that patients with newly diagnosed localized non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT) of the brain or spinal cord whose disease responds well to chemotherapy before receiving radiation therapy are more likely to be free of the disease for a longer time than patients in whom chemotherapy is less effective.
Researchers in this study are seeking the best dose of CBL0137 in people with solid tumors. They also want to see how well it works against certain cancers.
