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 are seeking the best dose of CABA-201 to treat people with active idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM). The people in this study have IIM, juvenile idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (JIIM), or myositis. With JIIM and some subtypes of IIM, B cells make the body to attack different tissues, causing inflammation and muscle weakness.
This study is evaluating the safety and effectiveness of combination chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy in children and young adults with newly diagnosed stage II-IV diffuse anaplastic Wilms' tumors (DAWT) or favorable histology Wilms' tumors (FHWT) that have come back (relapsed).
Researchers are assessing the best dose and benefit of DT2216 given with irinotecan chemotherapy in young people with cancer. DT2216 may help to kill cancer cells by blocking Bcl-xL, a protein that some cancers need to survive. Irinotecan is an anti-cancer drug that is part of the usual treatment for many cancers. Both drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers want to find the best dose of HC-7366 to use alone and with belzutifan in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study have advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) that keeps growing after prior treatments. The cancer either cannot be removed (is inoperable) or has metastasized (spread). 
In this study, researchers want to see if the drug HER3-DXd works well against advanced melanoma. HER3-DXd is called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs are made up of an antibody linked to a drug. The antibody binds to specific proteins on cancer cells. The linked drug enters these cells and kills them without harming other cells.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug STK-012 that can be given safely in combination with pembrolizumab immunotherapy to people with solid tumors that have spread or come back despite prior treatment. STK-012 is a modified form of a protein called interleukin-2, which is normally made by the immune system. It may help to multiply and activate tumor-killing cells of the immune system.
The purpose of this study is to see if delivering laser light directly to the prostate to activate a light-sensitive drug is a safe and effective treatment for prostate cancer that has come back after radiation therapy. The goal of this treatment is to eliminate any remaining prostate cancer cells. This approach is a form of photodynamic therapy (PDT).
Researchers are assessing the effectiveness of the combination of lenvatinib, pembrolizumab immunotherapy, and fulvestrant to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have inoperable or metastatic breast cancer (cancer that has spread) that is estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative.
Researchers want to find the best dose of NT-175 in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancers that are inoperable (cannot be surgically removed) or metastatic (have spread). The types of tumors include:
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a disease in which lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) become cancerous and affect the skin, causing cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The drug bexarotene and a very low-dose form of radiation treatment called total skin electron beam (TSEB) radiotherapy are each used individually to treat MF; this study is evaluating the safety of their use together. Researchers think that since bexarotene takes up to three months to relieve symptoms, combining it with TSEB could stabilize or improve MF and reduce symptoms, including itching.
