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 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.          
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.
In this study, researchers want to find the best doses of 2 different drug combinations. This study is for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that keeps growing even after treatment. You also must have changes (mutations or variants) in the FLT3 gene, and in either the IDH1 or IDH2 genes. The FLT3 gene can cause cancer cells to grow. The IDH1 and IDH2 genes cause low blood cell counts.
Researchers are doing this study to see how well sotorasib gets into metastatic brain tumors. The people in this study have tumors in the brain that have spread there from other parts of the body. They are planning to have the brain metastases removed with surgery. In addition, their tumors have a mutation (change) in the KRAS gene (KRAS G12C+).
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 see if  dietary changes can affect chemotherapy response or quality of life in people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The people in this study are receiving standard induction (initial) chemotherapy with daratumumab or isatuximab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DRVd).
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.
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a condition in which healthy transplanted stem cells attack the recipient's healthy cells. cGVHD most often happens more than 100 days after a stem cell transplant, but it can happen at any time.
Researchers want to see how well selinexor works in people with Wilms' tumor and other solid tumors. The people in this study are children and adults with tumors that depend on a protein called XPO1. XPO1 helps cancer cells grow by getting rid of proteins that can cause those cells to die (tumor suppressor proteins).
