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 see how well tivozanib plus pembrolizumab works in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study had surgery for renal cell carcinoma and have a high risk of it coming back.
In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of the drug abemaciclib that can be given safely with ruxolitinib in people with myelofibrosis that has developed on its own (primary myelofibrosis) or as a complication of the blood diseases polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia. In people with myelofibrosis, the bone marrow is not able to make enough blood cells. The spleen is bigger than normal, making the stomach feel very full. Patients may also have fever and night sweats.
Researchers want to see if removing only 1 lymph node with cancer prevents melanoma from coming back in that area. The people in this study have melanoma that spread to just 1 lymph node.
Researchers want to find the best dose of TTI-101 that can be used safely alone and with other drugs for cancer. The people in this study have hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) that has metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (surgically unremovable).
Researchers are assessing the cellular therapy lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) in people with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). The people in this study have PCNSL that has not yet been treated. In addition, they cannot have autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). During ASCT, a patient's healthy, blood-forming cells are collected before treatment, stored, and returned after treatment with very strong chemotherapy.
Researchers are finding the best dose of ASP2138 to use in people with advanced digestive cancers. The people in this study have cancer of the pancreas, stomach (gastric cancer), or junction between the esophagus and stomach (gastroesophageal junction cancer). In addition, their cancers make a protein called CLDN 18.2 and keep growing even after treatment.
Pirtobrutinib works by blocking a protein called BTK, which helps cancer cells grow and survive. By blocking this protein, pirtobrutinib may help stop cancer cells from growing and spreading. It is taken orally (by mouth).
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug RMC-6236 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors containing mutations in the KRAS gene. RMC-6236 targets the KRAS protein made by the mutated gene. The KRAS protein sends signals that cause cancer cells to grow. RMC-6236 is designed to prevent the KRAS protein from sending these signals, and this blocking action may slow or stop the growth of cancer cells. RMC-6236 is taken orally (by mouth).

Breast cancer (TNBC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that spread to other parts of the body (metastasize) are usually treated with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapies, and/or radiation therapy. In this study, researchers want to see if using stereotactic body radiosurgery (SBRT) to all metastatic tumors plus standard therapy is more effective than standard therapy alone in patients with oligometastatic TNBC or NSCLC (five or fewer metastatic tumors).
