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 seeking the best dose of CLSP-1025 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancers with a mutation (change) in the p53 gene called R175H. They are also positive for a specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA type A*0201). HLA is a protein on cells that plays an important role in the immune response to foreign substances.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug XMT-1660 that can be given safely in people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that persists despite prior chemotherapy. TNBC includes breast cancers that do not contain receptors for estrogen or progesterone and do not have the HER2 protein, so they cannot be treated with medications that target those proteins.
After a stem cell transplant, some patients develop a condition called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This occurs when the donor's healthy immune cells see the recipient's normal cells as foreign and attack them.
There is not an accepted or usual approach to treat patients 75 years of age or older diagnosed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Doctors are seeking effective but less intensive treatment regimens, with fewer side effects, for these patients. A standard treatment for DLBCL is R-CHOP (a combination of the drugs rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone).

Researchers want to find the best dose of abemaciclib to combine with radiation therapy to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have metastatic breast cancer that is fueled by estrogen or progesterone (hormone receptor-positive cancer). In addition, their breast cancer does not make a protein called HER2.
Researchers want to see if dietary changes can affect chemotherapy response or quality of life in people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The people in this study are receiving standard induction (initial) chemotherapy with daratumumab or isatuximab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DRVd).
Researchers want to find the best dose of D3L-001 to treat advanced breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that cannot be cured with standard therapies. Their tumors also make the HER2 protein, which plays a role in cancer growth.

The usual treatment for brain metastases (cancer that spread to the brain) is a single treatment of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). SRS uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor.
