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 ZL-1310 to use in people with advanced digestive tumors. The people in this study have gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (GEP NEC) that spread and keeps growing after treatment. These tumors include NEC of the esophagus, stomach, pancreas, gallbladder, or colon/rectum.
Researchers want to learn how well zelenectide pevedotin works against advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that has come back, spread, or cannot be surgically removed. Their cancers are hormone receptor positive/HER2-negative or are triple negative. In addition, their tumor cells have an amplification (too many copies) of a gene called Nectin4.
Researchers want to find the best dose of INCB160058 to treat myeloproliferative neoplasms such as myelofibrosis. The people in this study have myeloproliferative neoplasms that came back or keep growing even after treatment. In addition, their cancers have a mutation (change) in the JAK2 gene.

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.
After endometrial cancer surgery, there is a risk that the cancer will come back. Combining a shorter course of radiation treatment with chemotherapy may decrease the chance of endometrial cancer recurring.
