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.
The transplantation of stem cells from umbilical cord blood is a treatment for some blood cancers and non-cancerous blood or metabolic disorders. Patients routinely receive high doses of chemotherapy and sometimes radiation before receiving the stem cells to help make room in the bone marrow for new blood stem cells to grow, prevent the body from rejecting the transplanted cells, and help kill any abnormal blood cells in the body. However, the combination of these treatments can have serious side effects.
In this study, researchers want to see if adding stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) to standard drug therapy is effective for people with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive HER2-positive oligometastatic breast cancer that has gotten worse at one metastatic site despite medical treatment. Oligometastatic breast cancer is cancer that has spread to a small number of parts of the body. SBRT delivers extremely precise, very intense doses of radiation to cancer cells.
Researchers are finding the best dose of CUSP06 to use in people with advanced ovarian or endometrial cancer. The people in this study have cancer that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
Multiple myeloma that keeps growing after treatment can cause cancer cells to build up inside the bones. The cancer cells crowd out healthy blood cells and make abnormal proteins that cause discomfort. Researchers in this study want to find the best dose of KTX-1001 to treat multiple myeloma that grows after treatment.
Researchers are assessing how well erdafitinib works to treat gliomas that keep growing after treatment. The people in this study have glioma with a normal IDH gene and a fusion of two other genes (FGFR-TACC).
Researchers want to find the best dose of ABBV-453 to treat multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that may have a genetic change and make too much of the BCL2 protein. In addition, their cancer has not responded to treatment or has returned after treatment.

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.
Researchers want to see if the drug talquetamab is useful for treating multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that keeps growing even after treatment. They also recently received a CAR T cell therapy called idecabtagene autoleucel.
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.
