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.

This study is assessing the safety and effectiveness of giving tucatinib and trastuzumab followed by standard CAPOX chemotherapy (the drugs capecitabine and oxaliplatin) in people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has not yet been treated and makes a protein called HER2. Tucatinib and trastuzumab both block HER2, which stimulates cancer cell growth.

CAR T-cell therapies are a form of immunotherapy where some of a patient's T cells are removed, modified in the laboratory to recognize a protein on cancer cells, multiplied, and returned to the patient to provoke an immune attack against cancer. Sometimes the new T cells cause side effects related to the immune system's response to the treatment.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug RLY-2608 that can be used alone in people with advanced solid tumors and with fulvestrant in people with advanced breast cancer. Participants in this study will have cancers that contain a mutation in a gene called PIK3CA. Their cancers must have continued to grow despite treatment or be inoperable.
After a stem cell transplant, a condition called chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can occur. The new donor immune cells (like T cells and B cells) attack the recipient's healthy tissues, thinking they are foreign. It usually starts around 100 days after the transplant, but it can begin earlier or later.
Researchers are comparing two new combination drug treatments with the standard therapy for multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that is newly diagnosed. In addition, they cannot have an autologous stem cell transplant with high-dose chemotherapy.
Glioblastomas that have an "unmethylated" MGMT gene are less likely to respond to the standard chemotherapy drug temozolomide. In this study, researchers are comparing three investigational treatments (abemaciclib, CC-115, and neratinib) with the standard treatment (temozolomide and radiation therapy) in patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma.
