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.
In this study, researchers want to find out how different amounts of aerobic training might improve cardiorespiratory fitness in people while they are treated for breast cancer. Cardiorespiratory fitness is important for the health of people receiving treatment for breast cancer. Aerobic exercise stimulates and strengthens the heart and lungs and improves how the body uses oxygen.
Researchers in this study are comparing two different treatments for hairy cell leukemia. The people in this study have hairy cell leukemia that has not yet been treated. In addition, their leukemia has a genetic mutation (change) called BRAF V600E.
The standard treatment for head and neck cancers includes high-dose radiation therapy and chemotherapy, but it commonly causes side effects. In this study, researchers are assessing a treatment for head and neck cancer that starts with standard high-dose radiation therapy and chemotherapy and then reduces the doses of both treatments. Patients then have surgery to remove lymph nodes and tissue from the neck area.
In this study, researchers want to find the best dose of ABBV-319 to use in people with B-cell cancers. The people in this study have B-cell cancers that keep growing even after treatment. Examples of B-cell cancers treated in this study include:
Researchers want to find the best dose of AZD9592 to use in people with lung and head and neck cancers. They will assess AZD9592 when it is given alone and with the anti-cancer drug osimertinib. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or head and neck cancer with mutations (changes or variants) in the EGFR gene.
When people have Richter's transformation, their chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) changes into a more aggressive disease. Researchers are assessing a new drug combination for people with Richter's transformation that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
Researchers want to find the best dose of CB-011 to treat multiple myeloma. The people in this study have multiple myeloma that keeps growing even after treatment.
Sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia are blood diseases caused by a genetic change (mutation) in hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body. People with these diseases may be offered a stem cell transplant. Stem cell transplantation involves receiving healthy blood-forming cells (stem cells) from a donor to replace the diseased or damaged cells in the bone marrow.
Researchers want to find the best dose of STP938 to treat lymphoma and see how well this drug works against this cancer. The people in this study have B-cell or T-cell lymphoma that keeps growing even with treatment. Examples of these cancers include:
Researchers want to see if ruxolitinib works well as a treatment for T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). T-LGLL is a rare cancer of white blood cells called lymphocytes. The people in this study have T-LGLL that keeps growing even with treatment.
