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 are assessing the combination of sacituzumab govitecan and cetuximab for treating head and neck cancer. The people in this study have squamous cell cancer of the head and neck. Their cancer came back or spread after prior treatment.
However, most cancer recurrences happen within the first year of treatment. Long-term ICI therapy can also cause lasting side effects and be expensive. Doctors are therefore interested in finding ways to identify which patients can stop maintenance therapy sooner.
Researchers want to see how well volrustomig works to treat people with inoperable head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). Inoperable means the cancer cannot be taken out with surgery. The people in this study have HNSCC that has not grown after chemotherapy and radiation given at the same time.
Researchers want to see if ficerafusp alfa plus pembrolizumab is safe and works well against head and neck cancer. They will assess different doses of ficerafusp alfa to find the best one. The people in this study have head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Their cancers have come back or metastasized (spread) after treatment.
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational immunotherapy drug TJ033721 that can be given safely in people with advanced cancers of the pancreas, esophagus, stomach, or junction between the esophagus and stomach. TJ033721 is an antibody that binds to Claudin 18.2, a protein expressed on some cancers cells, and to 4-1BB, a protein found on immune cells. TJ033721 may strengthen the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells by activating a patient's own cells to destroy the tumor. It is given intravenously (by vein).
Researchers are evaluating PYX-201 in people with solid tumors that have spread and keep growing after treatment. The people in this study have these cancers:
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational immunotherapy drug REGN7075 that can be given alone and in combination with cemiplimab in people with inoperable or metastatic solid tumors. Patients will either receive REGN7075 alone followed by REGN7075 plus cemiplimab, or only combination treatment with REGN7075 plus cemiplimab. Both drugs are given intravenously (by vein).
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug LOXO-435 that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or continued to grow despite treatment and contain a change in the FGFR3 gene. LOXO-435 targets cells with this abnormality and blocks the activity of FGFR3, a protein that plays a role in cancer growth. Inhibiting this protein could slow or stop the growth of cancer. LOXO-435 is taken orally (by mouth).
Researchers want to find the best dose of HC-7366 to use alone and with belzutifan in people with kidney cancer. The people in this study have advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) that keeps growing after prior treatments. The cancer either cannot be removed (is inoperable) or has metastasized (spread).
Plasmablastic lymphoma is a type of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The purpose of this study is to determine if adding daratumumab to a standard chemotherapy regimen (DA-EPOCH) is a safe way to increase the effectiveness of treatment in people with plasmablastic lymphoma.
