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.
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 do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
ARV-806 is designed to help get rid of bad or unwanted proteins. It breaks down the KRAS protein in cancer cells, which plays a role in cancer growth and survival. By targeting this protein, ARV-806 may help slow or stop the growth of your cancer. It is given intravenously (by vein).
Surgery is the primary treatment for skin cancer. Patients' perception of the scar following surgery for facial skin cancer may significantly influence their satisfaction with their care. The purpose of this study is to assess patients' satisfaction with the appearance of their face and scar after skin cancer surgery at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), as well as their quality of life after the surgery.
The goal of this study is to find the best dose of lenalidomide that can be given together with the usual combination chemotherapy in adults with HTLV-associated T-cell leukemia-lymphoma. The usual chemotherapy consists of the drugs etoposide, prednisone, vincristine sulfate (Oncovin), cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin hydrochloride (hydroxydaunorubicin hydrochloride) and is known as EPOCH. Lenalidomide may help shrink or slow the growth of adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma.
In this study, researchers are comparing the effectiveness bevacizumab plus osimertinib versus osimertinib alone as initial treatment for patients with stage IIIB-IV non-small cell lung cancer that contains a mutation in a gene called EGFR.
After endometrial cancer surgery, there is a risk that the cancer will come back. Combining a shorter course of radiation treatment with chemotherapy may decrease the chance of endometrial cancer recurring.
Patients receiving certain drugs for breast cancer, such as doxorubicin or trastuzumab, may experience impaired heart function. Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center are conducting a study to see if it is possible to grow heart muscle cells ("cardiomyocytes") from blood or skin cells from breast cancer patients. The skin cells will be grown in a special mixture in the laboratory designed to transform them from skin cells into heart muscle cells.
Researchers want to see if ASTX727 is practical and safe for people with high-risk clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS). With 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. CCUS can lead to precancerous conditions such as myelodysplastic syndrome or blood cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia.
Researchers want to see if bulumtatug fuvedotin works well against breast cancer. The people in this study have triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that came back or spread after treatment.
