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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the investigational immunotherapy LN-145 in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has metastasized despite prior treatment. LN-145 is called "autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes" (TIL) therapy. It activates white blood cells to attack the tumor.
Researchers want to find the best dose of AZD9592 to use in people with lung and head and neck cancers. They will assess AZD9592 when it is given alone and with the anti-cancer drug osimertinib. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or head and neck cancer with mutations (changes or variants) in the EGFR gene.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug XL092 that can be given safely with immunotherapy drugs in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or continued to grow despite treatment. Immunotherapy drugs boost the ability of the immune system to find and kill cancer cells.
Researchers want to find the best doses of RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 when given together to treat lung cancer and other types of cancer that have KRAS G12C mutations. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or colorectal cancer with a gene mutation (change) called KRAS G12C.
Researchers want to find the highest dose of ERAS-0015 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancer that has metastasized (spread) and has a mutation in the RAS gene.
In this study, researchers are assessing the safety of the drug lurbinectedin in young people with solid tumors. In the first part, they will find the highest dose of lurbinectedin to use safely in children with solid tumors. If your child joins, this is the part of the study they will be in.
Researchers want to find the best dose of a new CAR T cell therapy for esophagogastric cancer. Esophagogastric cancer is cancer of the esophagus or stomach. The people in this study have esophagogastric cancer that has metastasized (spread), including to the peritoneum (lining of the belly). In addition, their cancer makes a protein called mesothelin and keeps growing after initial treatment.
Researchers want to find the best doses of ziftomenib to use with other drugs to treat leukemia. The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that keeps growing even with treatment. In addition, they have AML with changes in the NPM1, KMT2A, or FLT3 genes.
The combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy (chemoradiation) is a standard treatment for people with HPV-positive throat cancer. HPV is human papillomavirus and can cause throat cancer. Radiation therapy uses radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy stops the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. However, this standard combination may cause severe side effects because it is given over 7 weeks. These side effects include sores in the mouth and gut, sore throat, and changes in taste.
