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.
Osimertinib is a standard treatment for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a change (mutation) in the EGFR gene. Researchers think that adding chemotherapy to osimertinib could make treatment more effective.

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).
The standard treatment for poor-risk and intermediate-risk germ cell tumors (GCTs), such as testicular cancer, is chemotherapy with the drugs bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (abbreviated BEP) given every three weeks. In this study, researchers want to see if giving BEP chemotherapy every two weeks is more effective for controlling tumor growth than the standard regimen in patients with metastatic intermediate-risk and poor-risk GCTs.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug XMT-1660 that can be given safely in people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that persists despite prior chemotherapy. TNBC includes breast cancers that do not contain receptors for estrogen or progesterone and do not have the HER2 protein, so they cannot be treated with medications that target those proteins.
After a stem cell transplant, some patients develop a condition called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This occurs when the donor's healthy immune cells see the recipient's normal cells as foreign and attack them.
There is not an accepted or usual approach to treat patients 75 years of age or older diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Doctors are seeking effective but less intensive treatment regimens, with fewer side effects, for these patients. A standard treatment for DLBCL is R-CHOP (a combination of the drugs rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combination therapy with zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax in patients newly diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL).
Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a type of T-cell cancer. This cancer has a fusion (change) in the ALK gene. The fusion gene makes a protein that promotes cancer growth and survival. This type of cancer is called ALK-positive ALCL.
Researchers want to find the best dose of D3L-001 to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that cannot be cured with standard therapies. Their tumors also make the HER2 protein, which plays a role in cancer growth.
