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 see how well avutometinib and defactinib work in people with thyroid cancer. The people in this study have one of these kinds of cancer:
Researchers are assessing a CAR T cell therapy to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that keeps growing even with treatment. With CAR T cell therapy, some of your own T cells (a type of white blood cell) are removed. They are genetically modified (changed) in a lab to recognize your own cancer cells. The altered T cells, called CAR T cells, are then returned to your body to find and kill cancer cells. This treatment is a form of immunotherapy.
BNT326 is a type of drug called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). ADCs are made of a monoclonal antibody linked to a drug. The antibody binds to a protein on cancer cells called HER3, which plays a role in cancer cell growth. It then releases the anti-cancer drug to kill the cancer cell. By destroying these cells, BNT326 may help slow or stop the growth of your cancer. It is given intravenously (by vein).
Ibrutinib and rituximab are the standard treatment for Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LL). In this study, researchers want to see if giving the medication venetoclax with the standard treatment is safe and more effective than the standard treatment alone in people with previously untreated WM/LL.
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).
However, SBRT may not be enough for people with intermediate-risk prostate cancer and unfavorable genetic features. These features may make it more likely that the cancer will come back after radiation therapy. These people may benefit from SBRT with hormonal therapy early in their care.
Researchers are comparing different treatments for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The people in this study have TNBC that has been surgically removed.
Researchers want to find the best doses of BNT323 and BNT327 to treat breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that has spread and keeps growing after treatment.
