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 want to find the best dose of AZD9592 to use in people with lung and head and neck cancers. They will assess AZD9592 when it is given alone and with the anti-cancer drug osimertinib. The people in this study have advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or head and neck cancer with mutations (changes or variants) in the EGFR gene.
- A Phase II Study of Pembrolizumab Immunotherapy plus Chemotherapy followed by Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Recurrent or Persistent Hodgkin Lymphoma
Full Title Phase II Study of Second-Line Pembrolizumab Plus GVD for Relapsed or Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of combining pembrolizumab immunotherapy with standard chemotherapy drugs and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or continued to grow despite one regimen of prior therapy. Pembrolizumab blocks PD-1, a protein cancer cells use to evade detection by the immune system, thereby enabling the immune system to find and kill cancer cells.
In this study, patients will receive pembrolizumab with three chemotherapy drugs: gemcitabine, vinorelbine, and liposomal doxorubicin. Depending on how well they respond to this treatment, they may also have ASCT. During ASCT, a patient’s own blood-forming stem cells are collected, and he or she is then treated with high doses of chemotherapy. Afterward, the collected stem cells are re-infused back into the patient to re-establish the blood-forming system.
The drugs used in this study are given intravenously (by vein).
Who Can Join
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
- Patients must have recurrent or persistent Hodgkin lymphoma after no more than one prior regimen of therapy.
- Patients must be physically well enough that they are fully ambulatory, capable of all self care, and are capable of all but physically strenuous activities. As an example, patients must be well enough that they would be able to carry out office work or light housework.
- This study is for patients age 10 and older.
For more information and to inquire about eligibility for this study, please contact Dr. Alison Moskowitz at 212-639-4839.

Doctors are assessing a new photodynamic therapy (PDT) for prostate cancer that has not spread beyond the prostate. This treatment is performed in an operating room while you are under general anesthesia.

Venetoclax blocks Bcl-2, a protein that helps cancer cells survive and resist the effects of anti-cancer treatments. By blocking Bcl-2, venetoclax may cause the death of cancer cells or make them more sensitive to other treatments. It is taken orally (by mouth).

This study is comparing two treatment regimens for advanced pancreatic cancer. The people in this study have pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that has metastasized (spread). They have not yet had treatment for advanced disease.
-
In this study, researchers want to find the highest dose of the drug abemaciclib that can be given safely with ruxolitinib in people with myelofibrosis that has developed on its own (primary myelofibrosis) or as a complication of the blood diseases polycythemia vera or essential thrombocythemia. In people with myelofibrosis, the bone marrow is not able to make enough blood cells. The spleen is bigger than normal, making the stomach feel very full. Patients may also have fever and night sweats.
-
In this study, researchers want to see how safe IDRX-42 is and how well it works to treat cancer. The people in this study have gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) that keeps growing after treatment. In addition, their cancer has metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery).
-
Trastuzumab is an anticancer medication that targets HER2, a protein overproduced by some cancers of the stomach (gastric cancers) and the junction between the stomach and esophagus (gastro-esophageal junction or GEJ cancers). In this study, researchers are evaluating the safety of combining the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) with immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy in patients with inoperable or metastatic stomach and GEJ cancers that have come back or continued to grow despite prior treatment.

Unfavorable intermediate-risk prostate cancers have not spread beyond the prostate but have a chance of coming back. They are usually treated with surgery or radiation therapy, with or without hormonal therapy. One of the more common standard treatment approaches is hormonal therapy called androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), which reduces the levels of male sex hormones, followed by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) to the prostate and nearby lymph nodes.
