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.
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.
Researchers want to find the best dose of TNG456 to use alone or with abemaciclib to treat brain cancer. The people in this study have glioblastoma that has spread. In addition, their cancer is missing a protein called MTAP.
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.
In this study, researchers want to see how well a personalized vaccine works for people with pancreatic cancer. The people in this study have pancreatic cancer that can be taken out with surgery. The vaccine is called autogene cevumeran. It is an "mRNA vaccine," made in a way similar to the vaccines used to prevent COVID. It will be given in combination with a drug called atezolizumab and a chemotherapy treatment called mFOLFIRINOX.
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.
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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combining a "bivalent" vaccine with two agents that stimulate the immune system: a sugar called beta-glucan and a medication called GM-CSF. The treatment is designed to prevent the relapse of patients with high-risk neuroblastoma that is in complete remission. This bivalent vaccine works by stimulating an immune response against two different antigens, which are markers on the surface of a cell.
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.
