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 comparing early treatment with venetoclax and obinutuzumab versus delayed treatment with these two medications in patients with newly diagnosed high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who are not experiencing symptoms. Starting treatment with these drugs early (before patients have symptoms) may be more effective than delaying treatment until symptoms emerge.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of adding the drug evexomostat (SDX-7320) to standard eribulin chemotherapy in people with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has come back or spread despite treatment. In addition, the participants in this study have metabolic disorders such as high blood sugar and/or obesity. TNBC includes breast cancers that do not contain receptors for estrogen or progesterone and do not have the HER2 protein, so they cannot be treated with medications that target those proteins.
Researchers are assessing tepotinib with or without ramucirumab in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The people in this study have NSCLC that has metastasized (spread) or recurred (came back) after treatment. Their cancers also have a genetic change called the MET exon 14 skipping mutation.
Researchers are studying how casdatifan, alone or with zimberelimab, works in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study have clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Their cancers have metastasized (spread) or are inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery).

Researchers want to find the best dose of DS-2243a to use in people with solid tumors. The people in this study have these solid tumors, which have spread beyond their original location:
Researchers want to find the best dose of RMC-9805 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancer that keeps growing even with treatment. The tumors also have a mutation (change) in the KRAS gene called G12D.
Researchers want to find the best dose of eganelisib when used alone and with cytarabine to treat leukemia. The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS) that has come back or keeps growing after treatment.          
A standard approach for early-stage rectal cancer is treatment with chemotherapy and radiation therapy followed by surgery. In this study, researchers are comparing two approaches to prevent the need for rectal resection (removal of all or nearly all of the rectum) in people with early rectal cancer: chemotherapy or chemotherapy and radiation with observation or limited surgery (removing only the area with the tumor, not the entire rectum).
Researchers want to find the best dose of Debio 0123 that can be given with temozolomide to treat glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is a type of brain cancer. The people in this study have glioblastoma that keeps growing even after treatment.
