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 learn if canakinumab can prevent cancer from developing in people with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS). In CCUS, there is a mutation (change) in one or more of the genes that help blood cells develop. People with CCUS have low levels of certain kinds of blood cells.
Doctors routinely use intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) after surgery to treat squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the tongue. IMRT delivers radiation directly to cancer cells from different angles by changing the radiation beam into multiple smaller beams. By targeting the tumor more precisely, IMRT reduces radiation damage to healthy tissue.
Researchers in this study want to determine if combining the drug venetoclax with standard chemotherapy may be more effective than standard chemotherapy alone in children and adolescents with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Venetoclax blocks Bcl-2, a protein that helps cancer cells to survive and resist the effects of cancer treatments. By blocking Bcl-2, venetoclax may kill cancer cells and/or make other treatments more effective.

Researchers want to find the best dose of TORL-1-23 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have solid tumors that have spread and cannot be successfully treated with standard therapies.
Researchers are finding the best dose of MB-CART19.1 immunotherapy in people with lymphoma. The people in this study have central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
Researchers are comparing two different treatments for breast cancer that metastasized (spread) and makes high levels of the HER2 protein. The people in this study have metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer that keeps growing after trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd). Or they may have had bad side effects from this drug and had to stop taking it.
People with endometrial cancer often gain weight during and after chemotherapy. Medicines to reduce the risk of an allergic reaction for people receiving chemotherapy can also raise blood sugar. Weight gain can affect overall health and cancer recovery.
Researchers are doing this study to see how well COM701 immunotherapy works when used as maintenance therapy for ovarian cancer. Maintenance therapy helps keep cancer from growing again after it shrank or stopped growing following earlier treatment.
