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.
After a stem cell transplant, a condition called chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can occur. The new donor immune cells (like T cells and B cells) attack the recipient's healthy tissues, thinking they are foreign. It usually starts around 100 days after the transplant, but it can begin earlier or later.
Researchers are comparing two new combination drug treatments with the standard therapy for multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that is newly diagnosed. In addition, they cannot have an autologous stem cell transplant with high-dose chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug mosunetuzumab for people with follicular lymphoma who have not yet received treatment. Mosunetuzumab binds to a cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system) at the same time. Researchers think that mosunetuzumab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating a patient's own cells to destroy the tumor. Mosunetuzumab is given as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection.
Researchers want to see if ruxolitinib works well as a treatment for T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). T-LGLL is a rare cancer of white blood cells called lymphocytes. The people in this study have T-LGLL that keeps growing even with treatment.
Deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) happens when a cell becomes unable to repair mistakes that happen during the normal process of cell division. Standard treatments for early-stage rectal cancer include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery. In this study, researchers are assessing the safety and effectiveness of giving the investigational immunotherapy dostarlimab first in people with locally advanced mismatch repair-deficient rectal cancer. Doctors will then evaluate patients' response to treatment before considering standard chemoradiation and/or surgery. Patients whose tumors respond completely to dostarlimab alone can be followed with close surveillance and no surgery.

Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the best treatments for prostate cancers that have metastasized (spread). The benefits of hormone treatments often do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
Researchers are seeking the best dose of cirtuvivint to use alone and with ASTX727 for leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or MDS that keeps growing after treatment.
