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 see if adding cabozantinib to standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for osteosarcoma. The people in this study include children, adolescents, and young adults with osteosarcoma that has not yet been treated.
Researchers want to find the highest dose of ECI830 that can be given safely in people with advanced cancer. The people in this study have breast cancer or other solid tumors that have spread beyond their original location.
Researchers in this study are assessing a combination of imaging and blood tests to find pancreatic cancer early. The people in this study have an increased risk of this cancer due to pancreatic cysts. They are planning to have surgery to remove the cysts and check them for cancer. It is hoped that the imaging and blood tests can detect pancreatic cancer early so people can avoid surgery.
Breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can spread to the cerebrospinal fluid-filled space around the brain and spinal cord. This is called leptomeningeal metastasis (LM). The effects of LM on the nervous system can be very serious.
Researchers want to see how well ulixertinib works in people with histiocytic neoplasms. Histiocytic neoplasms are rare diseases in which too many white blood cells called histiocytes build up in tissues and organs. This can cause damage to tissue or tumor(s) to form. The tumor(s) may be benign (not cancer) or malignant (cancer). There are different types of histiocytic neoplasms, including:
Researchers want to find the best dose of BBO-10203 to use in people with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have one of these types of cancer that has spread (metastasized):
Researchers are comparing ivonescimab with pembrolizumab immunotherapy for the initial treatment of advanced lung cancer. The people in this study have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has metastasized (spread).
Radiation delivered to metastatic tumors is known to cause damage to the DNA (genetic information) in the cancer cells, which causes them to die. An ATM mutation reduces cancer cells' ability to fix damage to their DNA, making it more likely that the radiation will kill ATM-mutated cancer cells. Lower doses of radiation therapy may cause fewer side effects than standard doses. In this study, researchers will observe the side effects of reduced-dose radiation therapy in patients with metastatic tumors that contain an ATM mutation and the rate at which tumors grow back (recur) after this treatment. It is hoped that lowering the radiation dose will be effective while reducing the side effects of treatment.
Researchers are assessing JCAR017 in people with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The people in this study have CLL or SLL that came back or keeps growing after treatment.
Researchers want to know if eating a plant-based diet and taking certain nutritional supplements may be helpful for reducing the risk of progression to multiple myeloma in people with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) or smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). People with MGUS and SMM have an abnormal protein called the M protein in their blood and are at risk of developing multiple myeloma.
