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 are comparing AZD0901 with standard treatments in people with advanced gastric cancer. The people in this study have cancer of the stomach or the junction between the esophagus and stomach (gastroesophageal junction). The people in this study have cancers that make a protein called Claudin18.2 (CLDN18.2).

V940 is made in a laboratory. It uses genes in your cancer to teach your immune system to fight the cancer. V940 is given as an injection into a muscle. Pembrolizumab boosts the ability of the immune system to find and kill cancer cells. It is given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers are comparing several combination drug treatments for people with cancer of the stomach or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). The people in this study have gastric or GEJ cancer that metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (cannot be surgically removed). In addition, their tumors make a protein called HER2.
Researchers are assessing different doses of CHS-114 when combined with toripalimab in people with advanced digestive cancers. The people in this study have digestive cancers that have metastasized (spread) or are inoperable (cannot be surgically removed). These cancers include:
Urothelial cancers can grow in different parts of the urinary tract. This includes the ureter (the tube that carries urine from the kidneys to the bladder) and renal pelvis. The renal pelvis is where the ureter connects to the kidneys. The standard treatment is surgery to remove the ureter, kidney, or both. In this study, researchers want to see if enfortumab vedotin, given before surgery, is useful for treating urothelial cancers. The people in this study have high-risk urothelial cancers of the upper urinary tract. High risk means there is a greater chance of the cancer coming back after treatment.
Researchers want to find the best dose of D3L-001 to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that cannot be cured with standard therapies. Their tumors also make the HER2 protein, which plays a role in cancer growth.
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is a standard treatment for multiple myeloma. An ASCT replaces the blood-forming cells destroyed by disease or treatment with healthy cells collected from your blood. Before ASCT, people generally receive a standard drug, melphalan, to prepare the body for the transplant.
Trastuzumab is an anticancer medication that targets HER2, a protein overproduced by some cancers of the stomach (gastric cancers) and the junction between the stomach and esophagus (gastro-esophageal junction or GEJ cancers). In this study, researchers are evaluating the safety of combining the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) with immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy in patients with inoperable or metastatic stomach and GEJ cancers that have come back or continued to grow despite prior treatment.
