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 see if isatuximab helps improve immune cytopenias (ICs) caused by a donated stem cell transplant. A transplant from a donor is called an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT). People with blood cancers often receive an allo-HCT. ICs are abnormally low blood cell counts that can happen after an allo-HCT. They cause people to need blood or platelet transfusions. Platelets are blood cells needed for clotting. Researchers in this study will see if isatuximab can improve ICs and lessen the need for blood or platelet transfusions.
Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the most effective treatments for prostate cancers that have spread to other organs (metastasized). The benefits of hormone treatments do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers continue to grow despite hormonal therapies; these are called "castration-resistant prostate cancers" (CRPC).
Researchers want to see if AAA617 can slow the growth of advanced prostate cancer. They also want to learn if this treatment can delay the need to start hormonal therapy. Treatment with AAA617 will be compared to observation (no treatment other than standard targeted radiation therapy).

Researchers are doing this study is to find the highest dose of a new cell therapy for people with leukemia. The people in this study have acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) that keeps growing even after treatment. They will get the new treatment with atezolizumab, an immune-boosting therapy.
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).
Researchers in this study are assessing the drug ACR-368 alone and in combination with increasing doses of low-dose gemcitabine in people with ovarian, endometrial, or urothelial (bladder) cancer that has come back despite prior treatment. ACR-368 works by stopping cancer cells from repairing damage to themselves and their DNA (genes). Gemcitabine damages the DNA inside cancer cells and prevents the cells from multiplying.
The purpose of this study is to see if the combination of fianlimab, cemiplimab, and ipilimumab works well against melanoma. The people in this study have melanoma that is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery) or metastatic (spread). In addition, their cancer keeps growing even after treatment that included immunotherapy.
Researchers want to see if zongertinib is safe and works well to treat advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have solid tumors that metastasized (spread). The tumors contain an abnormal HER2 protein (mutation) or too much HER2 (overexpression/amplification). HER2 promotes the growth of cancer cells.
Researchers want to see how well ivonescimab works as a treatment for endometrial and cervical cancers. The people in this study have endometrial or cervical cancer that keeps growing after treatment.
