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.
Chemotherapy can cause symptoms, such as nausea and fatigue, and some patients have difficulty working during this treatment. The purpose of this study is to learn more about how chemotherapy for breast cancer affects patients' employment.
Researchers want to learn if canakinumab can prevent cancer from developing in people with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS). In CCUS, there is a mutation (change) in one or more of the genes that help blood cells develop. People with CCUS have low levels of certain kinds of blood cells.
People with early-stage breast cancer who undergo lumpectomy have traditionally also received radiation therapy and hormonal (endocrine) therapy to reduce their risk of breast cancer recurrence. Doctors want to know if some patients with low-risk early-stage breast cancer can forgo radiation therapy (which takes several weeks and has side effects) and do as well if they receive only hormonal therapy after lumpectomy.
Researchers are assessing a combination of medications to see if they work well against upper digestive cancers. The people in this study have esophagus, stomach, or gastro-esophageal junction cancers that spread and keep growing after treatment.
Researchers want to find the best dose of BH-30236 to treat people with leukemia. This study includes people with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) that relapsed (came back) after treatment. It also includes people with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Higher-risk means a disease has a higher chance of coming back or not responding to standard treatment.
In this study, researchers want to find the best dose of XmAb819 to treat kidney cancer. The people in this study have clear cell renal cell cancer that keeps growing or came back after standard treatments.
Researchers are comparing combination chemotherapy alone or with a stem cell transplant for people with amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis. The people in this study have newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis. The chemotherapy includes daratumumab, cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone (Dara-VCD).
Researchers want to find the best dose of FOG-001 to use in people with advanced cancer. This study focuses on people who have colorectal and other digestive cancers that spread and keep growing after treatment.
Researchers are assessing the iberdomide with belantamab mafodotin and dexamethasone in people with multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that came back or keeps growing even with treatment.
Researchers are comparing treatment with doxorubicin chemotherapy and pembrolizumab immunotherapy to doxorubicin alone for advanced sarcoma. The people in this study have undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) or a related poorly differentiated sarcoma. Their cancers have metastasized (spread) or are inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery).
