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 want to see if Tec-RVd after 3 treatment cycles of Dara-RVd is safe for people with multiple myeloma. The people in this study have newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
The standard approach to controlling pain after mastectomy includes intravenous and oral pain-relieving medications. In this study, researchers are determining if adding a long-acting local anesthetic, bupivacaine, into the wound at the end of the operation is more effective at reducing pain than the standard medications alone for women having a mastectomy on one side with no immediate reconstruction afterward.
KIF5B/RET is an abnormal gene that leads to the growth of lung cancer cells. Cabozantinib inhibits the effects of this gene. In addition, this drug interferes with other pathways that also cause cancer cells to grow, form new blood vessels, and spread to other parts of the body.
Researchers want to find the best doses of BNT323 and BNT327 to treat breast cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer that has spread and keeps growing after treatment.
Researchers are assessing a new combination therapy for neuroblastoma that has a high chance of coming back after treatment. This study is for children with high-risk neuroblastoma who have not gotten more than 1 chemotherapy cycle.
Researchers want to see if giving stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) after osimertinib is better than osimertinib alone for advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that metastasized (spread) to the brain. Their cancers have a mutation (change) in the EGFR gene, and they are taking or planning to take osimertinib.
Researchers want to find the best dose of INCB160058 to treat myeloproliferative neoplasms such as myelofibrosis. The people in this study have myeloproliferative neoplasms that came back or keep growing even after treatment. In addition, their cancers have a mutation (change) in the JAK2 gene.
Studies have shown that patients with newly diagnosed localized non-germinomatous germ cell tumors (NGGCT) of the brain or spinal cord whose disease responds well to chemotherapy before receiving radiation therapy are more likely to be free of the disease for a longer time than patients in whom chemotherapy is less effective.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of a specialized light treatment for children and adults with chronic graft-versus host disease (GVHD) of the mouth (oral GVHD) that has not improved after standard treatment. GVHD is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant. The newly transplanted donor cells attack the transplant recipient's body and cause serious health problems. Oral GVHD can cause mouth inflammation, pain, and sores.
Researchers are assessing a lower dose of standard radiation therapy after chemotherapy in young people with germinomas. The patients in this study have germinomas of the central nervous system (brain or spinal cord).  It is hoped that this new approach can destroy germinomas with fewer long-term side effects.
