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.
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.
Brentuximab vedotin (BV) plus chemotherapy with the drugs cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (CHP) is a standard treatment for T-cell lymphomas that make the CD30 protein. Researchers want to see if BV with an enhanced chemotherapy regimen that includes etoposide works better in people with T-cell lymphomas.
Nadofaragene firadenovec is a gene therapy that delivers a copy of a protein called IFNa2b to your kidney. This may help your immune system find and destroy cancer cells. By killing the cancer cells, nadofaragene firadenovec may cause your cancer to stop growing and spreading.
Researchers want to see if it is practical to give immunotherapy before kidney cancer surgery. The people in this study have no evidence of cancer spread in other parts of their body. Researchers also want to see if this treatment causes any delays in surgery. Immunotherapy is treatment that boosts the body's natural defenses to fight cancer.
Mirdametinib blocks proteins called MEK1 and MEK2, which play an important role in cancer cell growth and survival. By blocking MEK1 and MEK2, mirdametinib may slow or stop the growth of your cancer.
Researchers want to see how well revumenib works against acute leukemia. The people in this study have acute leukemia that keeps growing after treatment. They also have a mutation (change) in the HOX gene, which is related to new or immature leukemia cells.
In addition, their cancers have a fusion (change) in the ALK gene. The fusion gene makes a protein that promotes cancer growth and survival. This type of cancer is called ALK-positive NSCLC.
Researchers want to see if combining AZD0901 and rilvegostomig with standard chemotherapy works well in people with gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer. GEJ cancer occurs where the esophagus joins the stomach.
Researchers are comparing different sequences of therapy for people with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. All participants will get cilta-cel CAR T-cell therapy, a form of immunotherapy made from your own white blood cells.
Researchers want to find the best dose of INCA033989 to use in people with myelofibrosis (MF) and essential thrombocytopenia (ET). These diseases are called myeloproliferative neoplasms. The people in this study have myeloproliferative neoplasms that came back or keep growing even after treatment. In addition, their cancers have a mutation (change or variant) in the CALR exon-9 gene.
