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 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.
Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) is a standard chemotherapy combination used to treat a cancer of the bile ducts called cholangiocarcinoma. In this study, researchers want to see if adding another treatment that is delivered by a pump device (hepatic arterial infusion or HAI) to GemOx therapy is more effective than GemOx alone for patients with previously untreated inoperable cholangiocarcinoma. The HAI pump, which is implanted in the abdomen during a surgical procedure, continuously delivers the drugs floxuridine and dexamethasone directly to the liver.
Researchers in this study are assessing the combination of enfortumab vedotin with pembrolizumab immunotherapy in people with bladder cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes and will be surgically removed. Both medications are already used to treat bladder cancer, but their use together before surgery is considered investigational. Both drugs help the immune system attack and kill cancer cells. The study investigators will see if this combination treatment can get rid of cancer in the lymph nodes and shrink patients' tumors before surgery.
Researchers want to see how well cabozantinib works to treat meningioma, a type of brain tumor. The people in this study have meningiomas that came back or keep growing even after treatment.
Researchers are assessing the effectiveness of the combination of lenvatinib, pembrolizumab immunotherapy, and fulvestrant to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have inoperable or metastatic breast cancer (cancer that has spread) that is estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative.
Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the best treatments for prostate cancers that have metastasized (spread). The benefits of hormone treatments often do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
Researchers are assessing maintenance therapy with olaparib given for 1 or 2 years, with or without bevacizumab, to treat ovarian cancer. The people in this study have stage 3 or 4 ovarian cancer with certain genetic mutations (changes).

In this study, researchers want to find the best dose of ABBV-319 to use in people with B-cell cancers. The people in this study have B-cell cancers that keep growing even after treatment. Examples of B-cell cancers treated in this study include:
