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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of a new approach to treat people with T4 breast cancer who have already received chemotherapy. T4 breast cancer occurs when the cancer has grown beyond normal breast tissue and into the chest wall or skin or has become swollen and causes pain. Doctors normally treat T4 breast cancer with chemotherapy followed by mastectomy and removal of underarm (axillary) lymph nodes. After mastectomy, patients normally receive radiation therapy and then have breast reconstruction surgery many months to years after completing radiotherapy.
Researchers are comparing IMA203 cellular therapy with standard treatment in people with melanoma of the skin. Their melanoma is inoperable (cannot be surgically removed) or metastatic (has spread) and keeps growing despite treatment.
Researchers are seeking the best dose of safusidenib erbumine to treat glioma that came back or keeps growing after treatment. The people in this study have glioma with a mutation (change or variant) in a gene called IDH1. Many gliomas have IDH1 mutations, which help cancer cells survive and grow.
Cancer and its treatment can cause problems with attention, memory, and learning. These cognitive difficulties may affect your daily activities and worsen your quality of life.
Mesonephric cancer is a rare gynecologic cancer. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of giving VS-6766 and defactinib together in people with advanced or recurrent mesonephric gynecologic cancers.
Limited metastatic colorectal cancer is cancer that has spread to no more than 4 parts of the body. The usual treatment for limited metastatic colorectal cancer is chemotherapy. In this study, researchers want to see if adding local therapies makes treatment work better. Local therapies are used to treat cancer only at specific sites.
Researchers want to see how well the combination of obinutuzumab, sonrotoclax, and zanubrutinib works against leukemia and lymphoma. The people in this study have chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) that has not been treated.
Researchers want to learn how well zelenectide pevedotin works against advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that has come back, spread, or cannot be surgically removed. Their cancers are hormone receptor positive/HER2-negative or are triple negative. In addition, their tumor cells have an amplification (too many copies) of a gene called Nectin4.
Researchers want to find the best dose of CRD3874-SI to use in people with sarcoma or Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). The people in this study have sarcoma or MCC that has spread. CRD3874-SI attaches to a type of protein called a STING. This protein encourages immune cells to kill cancer cells, which may slow or stop cancer growth. CRD3874-SI is given intravenously (by vein).
