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.
This purpose of this study is to assess whether adding trastuzumab/hyaluronidase-oysk or pertuzumab/trastuzumab/hyaluronidase-zzxf to the usual chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) shrinks tumors in patients with HER2-positive endometrial serous carcinoma or carcinosarcoma.
Isolated limb infusion (ILI) is a way to give anticancer drugs directly into an arm or leg to treat a sarcoma. However, despite this treatment, sometimes the cancer still spreads to other parts of the body. In this study, researchers want to see if adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to ILI treatment with the chemotherapy drugs melphalan and dactinomycin can help prevent the spread of cancer and increase the effectiveness of the ILI treatment in people with advanced sarcoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug mosunetuzumab for people with follicular lymphoma who have not yet received treatment. Mosunetuzumab binds to a cancer cell and a T cell (which plays a key role in the immune system) at the same time. Researchers think that mosunetuzumab may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating a patient's own cells to destroy the tumor. Mosunetuzumab is given as a subcutaneous (under the skin) injection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of cesium-131 (Cs-131) brachytherapy in patients with brain cancer that has come back after prior radiation therapy and who will be having surgery to remove it. Brachytherapy involves the placement of radioactive seeds into the brain during surgery. The seeds remain in place permanently in the area where the tumor was removed and give off cancer-killing radiation temporarily. 
Researchers want to find the best dose of BMS-986393 to use with other drugs to treat multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that keeps growing or came back after treatment.
Researchers want to see how well tivozanib plus pembrolizumab works in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study had surgery for renal cell carcinoma and have a high risk of it coming back.
The standard treatment for poor-risk and intermediate-risk germ cell tumors (GCTs), such as testicular cancer, is chemotherapy with the drugs bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (abbreviated BEP) given every three weeks. In this study, researchers want to see if giving BEP chemotherapy every two weeks is more effective for controlling tumor growth than the standard regimen in patients with metastatic intermediate-risk and poor-risk GCTs.
The usual approach to managing HPV-related oropharynx cancer in people whose tumors have a higher risk of coming back after surgery is to use radiation therapy to prevent tumor relapse. However, not all patients have tumors that come back after surgery, and many may not need radiation therapy at all, or only need it later when there are early signs of the cancer coming back.
The purpose of this study is to see how well zipalertinib works to treat advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread. The cancer also has a mutation (change) in the EGFR gene. When people have an EGFR mutation, the EGFR protein on their cells can trigger cancer growth.
