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 overall goal of this study is to see if adding inotuzumab ozogamicin to standard chemotherapy maintains or improves treatment effectiveness in young patients with high-risk B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Inotuzumab ozogamicin contains an antibody (inotuzumab) linked to a type of chemotherapy (calicheamicin). Inotuzumab attaches to cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers calicheamicin to kill them.
Researchers are assessing neladalkib for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The people in this study have NSCLC that has spread beyond its original location. In addition, their cancers have a fusion (genetic change) involving a gene called ALK.

Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is a substance taken up specifically by neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, or paraganglioma tumor cells. MIBG can be combined with radioactive iodine (<sup>131</sup>I) in the laboratory to form the radioactive compound <sup>131</sup>I-MIBG. The <sup>131</sup>I-MIBG compound concentrates more in cancer cells than in normal cells. It may therefore deliver more radiation directly to cancer cells while sparing normal organs.
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is a standard treatment for multiple myeloma. An ASCT replaces the blood-forming cells destroyed by disease or treatment with healthy cells collected from your blood. Before ASCT, people generally receive a standard drug, melphalan, to prepare the body for the transplant.
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.
Researchers want to find the highest dose of HRO761 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have solid tumors that have metastasized (spread). In addition, their cancers are mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) or microsatellite unstable (MSI-high). This means their cancer cells are less able to correct mistakes in their DNA.
Ruxolitinib is used to treat myelofibrosis, a rare bone marrow cancer that disrupts your body's normal blood cell production. Some people taking this drug, however, keep having symptoms. Researchers want to see if adding the drug ulixertinib to ruxolitinib treatment is safe and works better to treat myelofibrosis.
Researchers are expanding access to the drug zidesamtinib for people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or another solid tumor with a fusion (change) in the ROS1 gene. This fusion can cause cancer cells to multiply and spread.
