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 how well the combination of obinutuzumab, sonrotoclax, and zanubrutinib works against leukemia and lymphoma. The people in this study have chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has not been treated.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of nivolumab immunotherapy alone and with the drug cabozantinib to reduce the chance that mucosal melanoma will come back after surgery. Nivolumab boosts the power of the immune system to detect and destroy cancer cells. Cabozantinib inhibits cancer cell growth by blocking certain enzymes.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug RLY-2608 that can be used alone in people with advanced solid tumors and with fulvestrant in people with advanced breast cancer. Participants in this study will have cancers that contain a mutation in a gene called PIK3CA. Their cancers must have continued to grow despite treatment or be inoperable.
After a stem cell transplant, a condition called chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can occur. The new donor immune cells (like T cells and B cells) attack the recipient's healthy tissues, thinking they are foreign. It usually starts around 100 days after the transplant, but it can begin earlier or later.
Researchers are comparing two new combination drug treatments with the standard therapy for multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that is newly diagnosed. In addition, they cannot have an autologous stem cell transplant with high-dose chemotherapy.
Glioblastomas that have an "unmethylated" MGMT gene are less likely to respond to the standard chemotherapy drug temozolomide. In this study, researchers are comparing three investigational treatments (abemaciclib, CC-115, and neratinib) with the standard treatment (temozolomide and radiation therapy) in patients newly diagnosed with glioblastoma.
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.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug mosunetuzumab for people with follicular lymphoma who have not yet received treatment. Mosunetuzumab binds to a cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system) at the same time. Researchers think that mosunetuzumab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating a patient's own cells to destroy the tumor. Mosunetuzumab is given as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection.
Researchers want to see if ruxolitinib works well as a treatment for T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). T-LGLL is a rare cancer of white blood cells called lymphocytes. The people in this study have T-LGLL that keeps growing even with treatment.
