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.
In this study, researchers are assessing a new way to determine the best dosing of fludarabine. The people in this study are children and young adults getting CAR T-cell therapy for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Their cancer has come back or keeps growing despite treatment. They will be getting a CAR T-cell therapy called tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah).
Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are drugs that many people take for several years after initial breast cancer treatment. They are designed to reduce the chance that the breast cancer will come back. However, people who take AIs often develop a type of joint pain known as aromatase inhibitor-associated arthralgia (AIA). Those with AIA often reduce their physical activity and have an increased risk of falling. Some people stop taking their AIs because of this pain.
Trastuzumab is an anticancer medication that targets HER2, a protein overproduced by some cancers of the stomach (gastric cancers) and the junction between the stomach and esophagus (gastro-esophageal junction or GEJ cancers). In this study, researchers are evaluating the safety of combining the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) with immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy in patients with inoperable or metastatic stomach and GEJ cancers that have come back or continued to grow despite prior treatment.

In this study, researchers are comparing selumetinib plus olaparib to selumetinib alone to treat endometrial or ovarian cancer. People in this study have cancer that came back or keeps growing after treatment. In addition, their cancers have a change (mutation or variant) in a RAS gene.

ABBV-324 is a type of drug called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs are composed of an antibody made from a specific cell line chemically linked to a drug. The antibody binds to specific proteins on certain types of cells, including cancer cells. The linked drug enters these cells and destroys them, with a lower risk of harming other cells. ABBV-324 is given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers are seeking the best dose of mRNA-4203 to give with a cellular therapy in people with melanoma or sarcoma. The cellular therapy is called IMA203 and is custom-made from each patient's white blood cells.
