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.
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of the drug selinexor that can be given safely with radiation therapy in young patients newly diagnosed with pediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) or high-grade glioma. Researchers will also determine the effectiveness of combining selinexor with radiation therapy (given for eight weeks) followed by selinexor therapy alone for two years.
The purpose of this study is to find the best dose of NXC-201 to treat AL amyloidosis. The people in this study have AL amyloidosis that came back or does not get better with treatment.
Researchers want to find the best dose of ELA026 to use in people with secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (sHLH). When you have sHLH, certain white blood cells become overactive and attack other healthy blood cells. The white blood cells damage your own healthy tissues and organs. sHLH is usually triggered by another disease, such as cancer, infection, or autoimmune disease.
In this study, researchers are seeking to find the highest dose of the investigational drug BGB-16673 that can be given safely in people with lymphoma and other types of B cell cancers that have come back or continued to grow despite prior treatment. BGB-16673 degrades a protein called BTK, which helps B cells live and grow. By degrading BTK, BGB-16673 may stop or slow the growth and activity of B cells, which could lead to improvement in the symptoms associated with B cell cancers. BGB-16673 is taken orally (by mouth).
Researchers want to see if adding cryoablation to immunotherapy is better than immunotherapy alone for breast cancer. The people in this study have triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) that has spread beyond its original site. The immunotherapy being studied is pembrolizumab.
Researchers want to find the best dose of TERN-701 to use in people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The people in this study have CML that came back after treatment or could not be treated with standard therapies.
Prostate cancers initially need the male hormone testosterone for growth. Hormone therapies that lower the level of testosterone are among the best treatments for prostate cancers that have metastasized (spread). The benefits of hormone treatments do not last, however. Over time, many prostate cancers keep growing even with hormonal therapies. These are called castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC).
Researchers want to find the best dose of CRD3874-SI to use in people with sarcoma or Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC). The people in this study have sarcoma or MCC that has spread. CRD3874-SI attaches to a type of protein called a STING. This protein encourages immune cells to kill cancer cells, which may slow or stop cancer growth. CRD3874-SI is given intravenously (by vein).
This study is assessing axicabtagene clioleucel CAR T cell therapy for people with HIV-related aggressive B cell lymphoma. The people in this study have B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or keeps growing after treatment, including:
