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.
Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is a substance taken up specifically by neuroblastoma, pheochromocytoma, or paraganglioma tumor cells. MIBG can be combined with radioactive iodine (131I) in the laboratory to form the radioactive compound 131I-MIBG. The 131I-MIBG compound concentrates more in cancer cells than in normal cells. It may therefore deliver more radiation directly to cancer cells while sparing normal organs.
Researchers want to see how well datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) works alone and with other drugs against cancer. The people in this study have endometrial, ovarian, or urothelial cancer that has metastasized (spread).
Researchers want to see if the drug talquetamab is useful for treating multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that keeps growing even after treatment. They also recently received a CAR T cell therapy called idecabtagene autoleucel.
In this study, researchers want to learn if tigilanol tiglate is safe and works well against advanced soft tissue sarcoma. When injected into a tumor, tigilanol tiglate stops the blood supply to the cancer, which starves the tumor of nutrients. It may also make the immune system target and kill cancer cells.
Researchers want to see if the herbal supplement Ma-Zi-Ren-Wan (MZRW) helps relieve chronic constipation in survivors of cancer. They will also see how MZRW affects the gut microbiome.
Researchers are comparing ivonescimab with pembrolizumab immunotherapy for the initial treatment of advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has metastasized (spread).
Researchers want to find the best dose of FOG-001 to use in people with advanced cancer. This study focuses on people who have colorectal and other digestive cancers that spread and keep growing after treatment.
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 are assessing the best dose and benefit of DT2216 given with irinotecan chemotherapy in young people with cancer. DT2216 may help to kill cancer cells by blocking Bcl-xL, a protein that some cancers need to survive. Irinotecan is an anti-cancer drug that is part of the usual treatment for many cancers. Both drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers want to find the best dose of xaluritamig to treat prostate cancer. The people in this study have prostate cancer that has not metastasized (spread) but keeps growing after treatment. Their doctors believe their cancers may respond to hormonal therapies that lower cancer-fueling testosterone. This type of cancer is called non-metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer.
