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 want to learn if L19IL2 and L19TNF, alone or together, work well to treat melanoma when given with pembrolizumab. The people in this study have melanoma that has metastasized (spread) or is inoperable (cannot be taken out with surgery). Their cancers keep growing even after having immune-boosting therapy.
Researchers are expanding access to the drug zidesamtinib for people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or another solid tumor with a fusion (change) in the ROS1 gene. This fusion can cause cancer cells to multiply and spread.
Researchers are doing this study to see how well sotorasib gets into metastatic brain tumors. The people in this study have tumors in the brain that have spread there from other parts of the body. They are planning to have the brain metastases removed with surgery. In addition, their tumors have a mutation (change) in the KRAS gene (KRAS G12C+).
Their tumors are also mismatch repair proficient (MMRp)/microsatellite stable (MSS). MMRp/MMS means that their cells are working normally to repair any mistakes made during cell division.
Researchers are doing this study is to find the highest dose of a new cell therapy for people with leukemia. The people in this study have acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) that keeps growing even after treatment. They will get the new treatment with atezolizumab, an immune-boosting therapy.
Researchers want to find the best doses of abemaciclib and cabozantinib to use in people with advanced kidney cancer. The people in this study have clear cell renal cell carcinoma that metastasized (spread); they previously received other kidney cancer therapies. In addition, their cancer keeps growing even after 2 or 3 prior treatments, including checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy.
In this study, researchers are assessing a new way to determine the best dosing of fludarabine. The people in this study are children and young adults getting CAR T-cell therapy for B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Their cancer has come back or keeps growing despite treatment. They will be getting a CAR T-cell therapy called tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah).
Researchers are comparing different treatments for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The people in this study have NMIBC that keeps growing after treatment with an immunotherapy called Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). They do not want surgery to remove the bladder (radical cystectomy).
Researchers want to see if  dietary changes can affect chemotherapy response or quality of life in people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The people in this study are receiving standard induction (initial) chemotherapy with daratumumab or isatuximab, lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DRVd).
