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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as DS-8201A) in patients with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors that produce too much of a protein called HER2, including biliary tract, bladder, cervical, endometrial, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers.
The genetic and biochemical makeup of a tumor influences its aggressiveness and the choice of the most appropriate therapy. The purpose of this research study is to determine the genetic and biochemical makeup of neuroblastic tumors, including neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroblastoma, ganglioneuroma, and paraganglioma. These research studies will include analysis of substances called markers that exist on the surface of cancer cells; cytogenetic studies; the identification of genes related to the development of these cancers and to tumor growth; and studies of tumor growth in test tubes. Patients' blood and bone marrow will also be tested for the presence of tumor cells or leukemia cells.
Casdozokitug blocks an immune system protein called IL-27. By binding to and blocking IL-27, casdozokitug may help immune cells fight cancer. Toripalimab also helps the immune system fight cancer. Bevacizumab prevents the growth of new blood vessels that feed the cancer. All three drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
Prostate removal (prostatectomy), a treatment for prostate cancer, can cause urinary incontinence (the inability to control the flow of urine). People experience urinary incontinence in the days immediately following surgery, which can reduce quality of life. Most people experience urinary incontinence for several weeks to months after surgery, but it can last longer.
Researchers want to find the best dose of BMS-986504 to use safely in people with lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that spread beyond its original location. In addition, their tumors are missing the MTAP gene.
Primary immune regulatory disorder (PIRD) and autoinflammatory conditions are conditions of the immune system that can cause an unusual amount of inflammation. While a stem cell transplant is a standard treatment for people with a PIRD or autoinflammatory condition, the inflammation caused by these conditions can reduce the effectiveness of this treatment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combination therapy with zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax in patients newly diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL).
The purpose of this research study is to understand more about smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). SMM is multiple myeloma that is not yet causing symptoms. It is usually not treated unless it causes symptoms.
Researchers in this study are exploring the feasibility of making an immunotherapy in a laboratory using white blood cells (called lymphocytes or T cells) collected from the tumor of a patient with metastatic uveal melanoma. This is called autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy. The TIL therapy being assessed in this study is called LN-144, and it is designed to activate white blood cells to attack the tumor.
Liver stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (L-SABR) is a standard treatment that uses radiation therapy to target tumors that have spread to the liver while limiting the radiation dose to surrounding organs. L-SABR may also boost the immune response.
