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.
Peritoneal mesothelioma is a cancer of the inner lining of the abdomen (belly). The people in this study will be having surgery to take out as much of the cancer as possible. They will also receive heated chemotherapy given directly into the abdomen to kill any remaining cancer cells.
This study is assessing a new treatment approach for people with oligometastatic breast cancer. This means their cancer has spread to a small number of other parts of the body. Their cancers have high levels of the HER2 protein, which promotes breast cancer growth. In addition, they started drug therapy for their cancer and it has not gotten worse in the last 3-12 months.
For people with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the more leukemia cells are destroyed, the better their long-term outcomes. In this study, researchers want to see adding venetoclax to standard chemotherapy (daunorubicin/cytarabine) or giving it with azacitidine works better than standard therapy for getting rid of the small amount of remaining leukemia cells. The people in this study include young adults with intermediate-risk AML.
After endometrial cancer surgery, there is a risk that the cancer will come back. Combining a shorter course of radiation treatment with chemotherapy may decrease the chance of endometrial cancer recurring.
Researchers want to find the best doses of RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 when given together to treat lung cancer and other types of cancer that have KRAS G12C mutations. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or colorectal cancer with a gene mutation (change) called KRAS G12C.
Researchers want to see how well enfortumab vedotin works in people with adenoid cystic carcinoma. This cancer most often starts in the salivary glands and certain other glands in the body. The people in this study have adenoid cystic cancer that came back or spread after treatment.
Researchers are evaluating PYX-201 in people with solid tumors that have spread and keep growing after treatment. The people in this study have these cancers:
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drug MORAb-202 in people with endometrial or ovarian cancer. MORAb-202 targets a protein called FRA on cancer cells and delivers eribulin (a chemotherapy drug) directly to these cells, which may slow or stop cancer growth. MORAb-202 is given intravenously (by vein).
Patients receiving certain drugs for breast cancer, such as doxorubicin or trastuzumab, may experience impaired heart function. Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center are conducting a study to see if it is possible to grow heart muscle cells ("cardiomyocytes") from blood or skin cells from breast cancer patients. The skin cells will be grown in a special mixture in the laboratory designed to transform them from skin cells into heart muscle cells.
