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.
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 want to find the highest dose of ERAS-0015 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancer that has metastasized (spread) and has a mutation in the RAS gene.
Researchers in this study want to determine if combining the drug venetoclax with standard chemotherapy may be more effective than standard chemotherapy alone in children and adolescents with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Venetoclax blocks Bcl-2, a protein that helps cancer cells to survive and resist the effects of cancer treatments. By blocking Bcl-2, venetoclax may kill cancer cells and/or make other treatments more effective.

Researchers are studying how casdatifan, alone or with zimberelimab, works in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study have clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Their cancers have metastasized (spread) or are inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery).
Researchers want to find the best dose of TORL-1-23 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have solid tumors that have spread and cannot be successfully treated with standard therapies.
Radiation therapy is one of the usual approaches to treating triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Researchers think that adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, with or without olaparib, to radiation therapy may be a better treatment for TNBC than radiation therapy alone.
Researchers want to learn if combining lasofoxifene and abemaciclib works well in people with advanced breast cancer. This treatment will be compared to the usual breast cancer treatment with fulvestrant and abemaciclib. The people in this study have breast cancer that is fueled by estrogen and does not have the HER2 protein. They also have a mutation (change or variant) in the ESR1 gene. Lasofoxifene targets the ESR1 gene mutation.
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a disease in which lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) become cancerous and affect the skin, causing "cutaneous T-cell lymphoma." Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a rare and similar disorder that causes lymphoma-like skin lesions.
People with endometrial cancer often gain weight during and after chemotherapy. Medicines to reduce the risk of an allergic reaction for people receiving chemotherapy can also raise blood sugar. Weight gain can affect overall health and cancer recovery.
