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 BDTX-4933 to use in people with advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer that has a mutation (change or variant) in the BRAF or KRAS genes (KRAS non-G12C mutation). This mutation can cause cancer cells to grow.
Researchers want to find the best dose of BMS-986453 to treat multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that came back or keeps growing even after treatment.
After people receive chemotherapy for colon cancer, doctors may be able to detect tumor DNA in the blood ("circulating tumor DNA" or ctDNA). If there is ctDNA in the blood, a patient's cancer may be more likely to come back. It is standard for people with ctDNA in their blood to be monitored ("active surveillance"), but investigators would like to know if immediate treatment of these patients can prevent cancer recurrence.
The combination of radiation therapy and chemotherapy (chemoradiation) is a standard treatment for people with HPV-positive throat cancer. HPV is human papillomavirus and can cause throat cancer. Radiation therapy uses radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Chemotherapy stops the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or stopping them from dividing. However, this standard combination may cause severe side effects because it is given over 7 weeks. These side effects include sores in the mouth and gut, sore throat, and changes in taste.
Researchers want to find the best dose of JNJ-79635322 to use in people with multiple myeloma or AL amyloidosis. The people in this study have multiple myeloma or AL amyloidosis that keeps growing even after treatment. Multiple myeloma is a cancer of the bone marrow. AL amyloidosis happens when a protein called amyloid builds up in organs and prevents them from working properly.
People with multiple myeloma have a higher chance of getting infections because of the disease and its treatment. Some people who get a multiple myeloma drug called a bispecific monoclonal antibody (BsAb) develop hypogammaglobulinemia. The level of immunoglobulins in their blood is low and the risk of infection is high. Immunoglobulins are proteins made by the immune system to prevent infections.
Researchers are seeing how well the drug FORE8394 works in people with advanced solid tumors, including brain tumors. The people in this study include adults and children with cancers that keep growing or came back even with treatment. Their tumors have mutations (changes or variants) in the BRAF gene.
