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.
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.
Researchers want to find the best dose of elranatamab when given with carfilzomib and dexamethasone or PF-07901801 in people with multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that keeps growing or came back after treatment.
The purpose of this study is to see if the drug pasireotide works well to treat prolactinomas. Prolactinomas are noncancerous pituitary gland tumors that make too much prolactin. Prolactin is a hormone that causes the body to make less estrogen and testosterone (sex hormones).
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug codrituzumab that can be given safely in children and young adults with solid tumors that came back or continued to grow despite treatment. Codrituzumab works by targeting a protein called GPC3, which can drive the growth of some forms of cancer that affect children and young adults. It is given intravenously (by vein).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of treating patients with recurrent and newly diagnosed glioblastoma using new therapies that are thought to be effective for treating brain cancer. The new therapies available as part of this clinical trial include regorafenib, VAL-083, and paxalisib.
People with early-stage breast cancer who undergo lumpectomy have traditionally also received radiation therapy and hormonal (endocrine) therapy to reduce their risk of breast cancer recurrence. Doctors want to know if some patients with low-risk early-stage breast cancer can forgo radiation therapy (which takes several weeks and has side effects) and do as well if they receive only hormonal therapy after lumpectomy.
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is a standard treatment for multiple myeloma. An ASCT replaces the blood-forming cells destroyed by disease or treatment with healthy cells collected from your blood. Before ASCT, people generally receive a standard drug, melphalan, to prepare the body for the transplant.

There are unknown factors in our environment and in people's genes that raise the risk of getting pancreatic cancer. To learn about these things, researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center created a Pancreatic Tumor Registry. This registry includes people with pancreatic cancer, and also people who have a strong family history of this disease.
Researchers are comparing RMC-6236 with standard therapy in people with advanced pancreatic cancer. The people in this study have pancreatic cancer that has metastasized (spread) and keeps growing even after treatment.
