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.
Cancer and its treatment may affect sexual and reproductive health. The purpose of this study is to evaluate sexual and reproductive health over several years among women age 50 and younger newly diagnosed with breast cancer or lymphoma.
The purpose of this study is to compare three types of support for parents who have experienced the death of a child due to cancer. The study team will assess how these different types of support affect participants' grief and depression symptoms. The three types of support parents may receive are called Meaning-Centered Grief Therapy, Supportive Counseling, and Enhanced Usual Care.
Researchers are seeking the best dose of cirtuvivint to use alone and with ASTX727 for leukemia and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The people in this study have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or MDS that keeps growing after treatment.
There are unknown factors in our environment and in people's genes that raise the risk of getting pancreatic cancer. To learn about these things, researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center created a Pancreatic Tumor Registry. This registry includes people with pancreatic cancer, and also people who have a strong family history of this disease.
Treatment for cancer can cause unwanted side effects affecting the skin that may be associated with itching or pain. These side effects may have a direct link to the immune system's response to cancer.
Researchers want to see how well volrustomig works to treat people with inoperable head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). Inoperable means the cancer cannot be taken out with surgery. The people in this study have HNSCC that has not grown after chemotherapy and radiation given at the same time.
The usual care for people with squamous cell skin cancer is surgery, with or without radiation therapy. Sometimes the cancer comes back (recurs). For this reason, researchers are studying other treatments for squamous cell skin cancer.
When some cancers become advanced, particularly colorectal cancer, they may spread to the liver. Destroying the tissue with electromagnetic waves that produce extremely high temperatures, a procedure called "thermal ablation," is one way to treat these liver metastases.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (also known as DS-8201A) in patients with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors that produce too much of a protein called HER2, including biliary tract, bladder, cervical, endometrial, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers.
The purpose of this study is to see how treatment for retinoblastoma in one eye affects quality of life in survivors of this cancer who had chemotherapy (injected into the eye) or surgery to remove the eye. Researchers will ask participants about their physical and emotional health and ability to perform daily activities. They want to determine if there are any differences between these treatments with respect to their effect on quality of life. It is hoped that this information will help doctors provide better care for children with retinoblastoma in the future and better follow-up care for survivors of this cancer.
