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.

Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a treatment in which some of a patient's stem cells are removed before high-dose chemotherapy, then returned to the patient to help re-establish the patient's immune system after chemotherapy. Care for a patient after ASCT usually takes place in a hospital. In this study, researchers want to see if it is feasible to care for a patient at home after ASCT for multiple myeloma. Studies at other institutions suggest that providing care at home after ASCT is safe, increases patient satisfaction, and can lower the risk of infection.

Researchers are expanding access to the drug zidesamtinib for people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or another solid tumor with a fusion (change) in the ROS1 gene. This fusion can cause cancer cells to multiply and spread.

The genetic and biochemical makeup of a tumor influences its aggressiveness and the choice of the most appropriate therapy. The purpose of this research study is to determine the genetic and biochemical makeup of neuroblastic tumors, including neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroblastoma, ganglioneuroma, and paraganglioma. These research studies will include analysis of substances called markers that exist on the surface of cancer cells; cytogenetic studies; the identification of genes related to the development of these cancers and to tumor growth; and studies of tumor growth in test tubes. Patients' blood and bone marrow will also be tested for the presence of tumor cells or leukemia cells.

Casdozokitug blocks an immune system protein called IL-27. By binding to and blocking IL-27, casdozokitug may help immune cells fight cancer. Toripalimab also helps the immune system fight cancer. Bevacizumab prevents the growth of new blood vessels that feed the cancer. All three drugs are given intravenously (by vein).

Germ cell tumors (GCTs) include ovarian teratomas and testicular cancers. The standard treatment for "low-risk" GCTs includes complete removal by surgery followed by chemotherapy with cisplatin, bleomycin, and etoposide, unless the patient is a young child, in which case careful observation may be adequate. GCTs are considered "standard risk" if the patient is under age 25 at diagnosis, the tumor was not completely removed during surgery or has spread to other parts of the body, or proteins in the blood called tumor markers are elevated. The standard treatment for standard-risk GCTs includes chemotherapy with cisplatin, bleomycin, and etoposide followed by surgery, followed by more chemotherapy if needed.

A Study of the Voro Urologic Scaffold to Prevent Urinary Incontinence After Prostate Removal SurgeryProstate removal (prostatectomy), a treatment for prostate cancer, can cause urinary incontinence (the inability to control the flow of urine). People experience urinary incontinence in the days immediately following surgery, which can reduce quality of life. Most people experience urinary incontinence for several weeks to months after surgery, but it can last longer.

Researchers want to find the best dose of BMS-986504 to use safely in people with lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that spread beyond its original location. In addition, their tumors are missing the MTAP gene.

Researchers want to find the best dose of xaluritamig to treat prostate cancer. The people in this study have prostate cancer that has not metastasized (spread) but keeps growing after treatment. Their doctors believe their cancers may respond to hormonal therapies that lower cancer-fueling testosterone. This type of cancer is called non-metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer.

After people receive chemotherapy for colon cancer, doctors may be able to detect tumor DNA in the blood ("circulating tumor DNA" or ctDNA). If there is ctDNA in the blood, a patient's cancer may be more likely to come back. It is standard for people with ctDNA in their blood to be monitored ("active surveillance"), but investigators would like to know if immediate treatment of these patients can prevent cancer recurrence.

Radiation delivered to metastatic tumors is known to cause damage to the DNA (genetic information) in the cancer cells, which causes them to die. An ATM mutation reduces cancer cells' ability to fix damage to their DNA, making it more likely that the radiation will kill ATM-mutated cancer cells. Lower doses of radiation therapy may cause fewer side effects than standard doses. In this study, researchers will observe the side effects of reduced-dose radiation therapy in patients with metastatic tumors that contain an ATM mutation and the rate at which tumors grow back (recur) after this treatment. It is hoped that lowering the radiation dose will be effective while reducing the side effects of treatment.
