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 RMC-6236 with docetaxel for the treatment of lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread beyond its original location. In addition, their tumors have a mutation (change) in the RAS gene.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of treating rare advanced genitourinary cancers with the immunotherapies nivolumab and ipilimumab plus the drug cabozantinib.
Researchers want to find the best dose of INCB161734 to use in people with advanced cancer. The people in this study have solid tumors that have spread. In addition, their cancers have a genetic mutation (change) called KRAS G12D.
In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of the investigational drug ORIC-944 that can be given safely in people with metastatic prostate cancer that continues to grow despite standard treatments. ORIC-944 works by blocking a group of proteins called PRC2, which promote prostate cancer growth. It is taken orally (by mouth).
Researchers are assessing JCAR017 in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The people in this study have CLL or SLL that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
In this study, researchers want to find out how different amounts of aerobic training might improve cardiorespiratory fitness in people while they are treated for breast cancer. Cardiorespiratory fitness is important for the health of people receiving treatment for breast cancer. Aerobic exercise stimulates and strengthens the heart and lungs and improves how the body uses oxygen.
When people have Richter's transformation, their chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) changes into a more aggressive disease. Researchers are assessing a new drug combination for people with Richter's transformation that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
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.
The standard approach to controlling pain after mastectomy includes intravenous and oral pain-relieving medications. In this study, researchers are determining if adding a long-acting local anesthetic, bupivacaine, into the wound at the end of the operation is more effective at reducing pain than the standard medications alone for women having a mastectomy on one side with no immediate reconstruction afterward.
