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 schedule for giving a new vaccine to people with neuroblastoma. The people in this study have neuroblastoma that is in remission (no signs of cancer). In addition, their cancers have a strong chance of coming back (high risk). The vaccine is given with a naturally occurring substance called beta-glucan.
Researchers are assessing the iberdomide with belantamab mafodotin and dexamethasone in people with multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that came back or keeps growing even with treatment.
Researchers are comparing treatment with doxorubicin chemotherapy and pembrolizumab immunotherapy to doxorubicin alone for advanced sarcoma. The people in this study have undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma. Their cancers have metastasized (spread) or are inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery).
Venetoclax blocks Bcl-2, a protein that helps cancer cells survive and resist the effects of anti-cancer treatments. By blocking Bcl-2, venetoclax may cause the death of cancer cells or make them more sensitive to other treatments. It is taken orally (by mouth).
The transplantation of stem cells from umbilical cord blood is a treatment for some blood cancers and non-cancerous blood or metabolic disorders. Patients routinely receive high doses of chemotherapy and sometimes radiation before receiving the stem cells to help make room in the bone marrow for new blood stem cells to grow, prevent the body from rejecting the transplanted cells, and help kill any abnormal blood cells in the body. However, the combination of these treatments can have serious side effects.

The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational immunotherapy drug REGN7075 that can be given alone and in combination with cemiplimab in people with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors. Patients will either receive REGN7075 alone followed by REGN7075 plus cemiplimab, or only combination treatment with REGN7075 plus cemiplimab. Both drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
Doctors routinely use intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) after surgery to treat squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the tongue. IMRT delivers radiation directly to cancer cells from different angles by changing the radiation beam into multiple smaller beams. By targeting the tumor more precisely, IMRT reduces radiation damage to healthy tissue.
Researchers want to see if a single radiation therapy dose can limit the growth of colorectal cancer liver metastases. The people in this study have colorectal cancer that has metastasized (spread) to the liver. The treatment is called high-dose stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
Researchers want to see if giving NALIRIFOX chemotherapy with high-dose radiation therapy and capecitabine before surgery helps people with pancreatic cancer. The people in this study have pancreatic cancer that involves major blood vessels but has not spread to other organs. The study includes people with pancreatic cancer that may or may not be removable ("borderline resectable" or "locally advanced").
