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 if combining radiation therapy and immunotherapy is safe and works well for treating advanced adrenocortical cancer. The people in this study have adrenocortical cancer that spread to other parts of the body, including the liver.
Intensity-modulated pleural radiation therapy (IMPRINT) is a type of radiation therapy that specifically targets the lining of the lungs and the inner side of the ribs to stop cancer from growing. In this study, researchers are studying the safety and effectiveness of IMPRINT to one side of the chest (hemithoracic IMPRINT) to treat people with thymic cancer (cancer of the thymus gland) that has spread to the lining of the lungs and chest.
Researchers want to find the best dose of DCC-3116 to give with ripretinib for people with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). The people in this study have GIST that has spread, even with treatment.
Researchers want to see if adding cryoablation to immunotherapy is better than immunotherapy alone for breast cancer. The people in this study have triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread beyond its original site. The immunotherapy being studied is pembrolizumab.
Researchers want to find the best doses of RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 when given together to treat lung cancer and other types of cancer that have KRAS G12C mutations. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or colorectal cancer with a gene mutation (change) called KRAS G12C.
Many cancer survivors suffer from anxiety. Anxiety may involve feelings of restlessness, muscle tension, and worry. Anxiety has also been linked to poor sleep, depressed mood, and tiredness. Researchers are doing this study to see how music therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy may be able to reduce anxiety and these other symptoms. Both music therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy are routinely used to treat anxiety.

Researchers are assessing the combination of teclistamab and mezigdomide to treat multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of a new approach to treat people with T4 breast cancer who have already received chemotherapy. T4 breast cancer occurs when the cancer has grown beyond normal breast tissue and into the chest wall or skin or has become swollen and causes pain. Doctors normally treat T4 breast cancer with chemotherapy followed by mastectomy and removal of underarm (axillary) lymph nodes. After mastectomy, patients normally receive radiation therapy and then have breast reconstruction surgery many months to years after completing radiotherapy.
The usual care for people with squamous cell skin cancer is surgery, with or without radiation therapy. Sometimes the cancer comes back (recurs). For this reason, researchers are studying other treatments for squamous cell skin cancer.
