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.
Liver stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (L-SABR) is a standard treatment that uses radiation therapy to target tumors that have spread to the liver while limiting the radiation dose to surrounding organs. L-SABR may also boost the immune response.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combining three drugs to treat people with an IDH-mutant glioma that came back after chemotherapy or surgery. The three medications are pembrolizumab, olaparib, and temozolomide.
Researchers want to see if elacestrant alone or with abemaciclib works well against endometrial cancer. The people in this study have endometrial cancer that has spread or come back. Their cancers have a protein called the estrogen receptor (ER) and they have a normal version of the p53 gene. This gene stops cancer from growing.
Researchers want to find the highest dose of DISC-0974 to use in people with myelofibrosis and anemia. Myelofibrosis happens when bone marrow cells called fibroblasts make too much fibrous (scar) tissue. The bone marrow is not able to make enough blood cells, which leads to anemia. Anemia is a reduced number of red blood cells, and it causes tiredness and shortness of breath.
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a serious condition that can happen after a stem cell transplant from a donor. The donated cells see the healthy tissues in the recipient's body as foreign and attack them. TRX103 is a new drug designed to reduce the risk of GVHD.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combining a "bivalent" vaccine with two agents that stimulate the immune system: a sugar called beta-glucan and a medication called GM-CSF. The treatment is designed to prevent the relapse of patients with high-risk neuroblastoma that is in complete remission. This bivalent vaccine works by stimulating an immune response against two different antigens, which are markers on the surface of a cell.
Researchers are assessing tepotinib with or without ramucirumab in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The people in this study have NSCLC that has metastasized (spread) or recurred (came back) after treatment. Their cancers also have a genetic change called the MET exon 14 skipping mutation.
Researchers are seeing how well the drug FORE8394 works in people with advanced solid tumors, including brain tumors. The people in this study include adults and children with cancers that keep growing or came back even with treatment. Their tumors have mutations (changes or variants) in the BRAF gene.
The purpose of this study is to see how well avutometinib and defactinib work in people with thyroid cancer. The people in this study have one of these kinds of cancer:
Researchers are assessing how well erdafitinib works to treat gliomas that keep growing after treatment. The people in this study have glioma with a normal IDH gene and a fusion of two other genes (FGFR-TACC).
