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.
This study is comparing the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy plus tucatinib and trastuzumab versus combination chemotherapy alone in people with metastatic colorectal cancer that is positive for the HER2 protein. The combination chemotherapy is called mFOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin, leucovorin or levoleucovorin, and fluorouracil) and it is a standard treatment for advanced colorectal cancer.

Researchers want to find the best doses of MOMA-313 alone and with olaparib in people with cancer. The people in this study have advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) or pancreatic cancer. CRPC is prostate cancer that has spread and keeps growing even in the absence of hormones. Their cancers also have a genetic change called HR deficiency.
Multiple myeloma that keeps growing after treatment can cause cancer cells to build up inside the bones. The cancer cells crowd out healthy blood cells and make abnormal proteins that cause discomfort. Researchers in this study want to find the best dose of KTX-1001 to treat multiple myeloma that grows after treatment.
Researchers want to find the best dose of VLS-1488 to treat various types of advanced cancer. VLS-1488 blocks KIF18A, a protein that plays a role in the rapid growth of cancer cells. By blocking KIF18A, VLS-1488 may cause cancer cells to stop growing and die. VLS-1488 is taken orally (by mouth).
Researchers want to find the best dose of LY4170156 to treat people with solid tumors. The people in this study have solid tumors that keep growing even after treatment. Their tumors also make a protein called FRA, which plays a role in cancer growth. The tumors treated in this study include:
In this study, researchers are comparing ado-trastuzumab emtansine with the usual treatment (docetaxel and trastuzumab) in people with recurrent, inoperable, or metastatic salivary gland cancer that makes the HER2 protein. Ado-trastuzumab emtansine is a monoclonal antibody (trastuzumab) linked to a chemotherapy drug (emtansine). Trastuzumab attaches to HER2 on cancer cells and delivers emtansine to kill them.
Researchers want to see how well EP0031 works to treat cancer. The people in this study have solid tumors with a mutation (change) in a gene called RET.
Researchers are assessing a new type of therapy in young people with solid tumors that keep growing even after treatment. The therapy is called afamitresgene autoleucel. The people in this study have synovial sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST), neuroblastoma, or osteosarcoma. In addition, they have tested positive for the HLA-A*02 gene and their cancers make a protein called MAGE-A4. This protein plays a role in cancer growth.
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is a standard treatment for multiple myeloma. An ASCT replaces the blood-forming cells destroyed by disease or treatment with healthy cells collected from your blood. Before ASCT, people generally receive a standard drug, melphalan, to prepare the body for the transplant.
