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.
Urothelial cancers can grow in different parts of the urinary tract. This includes the ureter (the tube that carries urine from the kidneys to the bladder) and renal pelvis. The renal pelvis is where the ureter connects to the kidneys. The standard treatment is surgery to remove the ureter, kidney, or both. In this study, researchers want to see if enfortumab vedotin, given before surgery, is useful for treating urothelial cancers. The people in this study have high-risk urothelial cancers of the upper urinary tract. High risk means there is a greater chance of the cancer coming back after treatment.

Researchers are assessing MEDI5752 and AZD2936 with standard treatments in people with cancer. The people in this study have primary liver or biliary cancer, including biliary tract or gallbladder cancer, that spread or cannot be surgically removed (inoperable). In addition, they have not yet received treatment for the cancer.
Treatment for cancer can cause unwanted side effects affecting the skin that may be associated with itching or pain. These side effects may have a direct link to the immune system's response to cancer.
The usual approach to managing HPV-related oropharynx cancer in people whose tumors have a higher risk of coming back after surgery is to use radiation therapy to prevent tumor relapse. However, not all patients have tumors that come back after surgery, and many may not need radiation therapy at all, or only need it later when there are early signs of the cancer coming back.
Researchers are comparing several combination drug treatments for people with cancer of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). The people in this study have gastric or GEJ cancer that metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (cannot be surgically removed). In addition, their tumors make a protein called HER2.
Mesonephric cancer is a rare gynecologic cancer. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of giving VS-6766 and defactinib together in people with advanced or recurrent mesonephric gynecologic cancers.
