Find a Cancer Clinical Trial for Your Child
Memorial Sloan Kettering conducts hundreds of clinical trials to improve care for people with many types of cancer. This includes more than 100 studies for children, teens, and young adults. Use this tool to browse our list of open clinical trials for young people. Each listing explains the purpose of the trial, who is eligible, and how to get more information.
New clinical trials are always opening. For more information and to find out about our latest studies, call 833-675-5437 or email us at [email protected].

Researchers want to find the best dose of CBX-250 to treat leukemia that came back or keeps growing after treatment. The people in this study have one of these diseases:
-
The purpose of this study is to establish a registry of patients with a rare disease called pediatric-onset opsoclonus myoclonus ataxia syndrome (POOMAS). POOMAS affects the brain, spinal cord, and other nerves. Its exact cause is unknown, though a small number of patients with neuroblastoma may have this condition.
-
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.

This study is assessing the safety and effectiveness of ASTX727 in people who have malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) with a mutation in a gene complex called PRC2 (EED or SUZ12). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs (cedazuridine and decitabine) that have been designed to target cancer cells with a PRC2 complex genetic mutation and disrupt the cells' ability to survive and grow.

Cushing's syndrome occurs when the adrenal glands produce too much of the "stress hormone" known as cortisol. This can be caused by a tumor which develops in the pituitary gland and secretes a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Cushing's syndrome can also be caused by an ACTH-secreting tumor elsewhere in the body, or by a tumor in the adrenal glands that makes cortisol.

Daunorubicin, cytarabine, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin are different chemotherapy drugs used to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML). CPX-351 is made up of daunorubicin and cytarabine. It is created in a way that makes the drugs stay in the bone marrow longer and could be less likely to cause heart problems than traditional anthracycline drugs, a common class of chemotherapy drugs used in cancer care.

Researchers want to find the best dose of avutometinib to treat children and young adults with advanced solid tumors. The people in this study have cancers that have spread or come back after treatment. In addition, their cancers have a mutation (change or variant) in a protein family called MAPK. These proteins tell cancer cells to grow.
-
Researchers in this study want to find the best dose of lurbinectedin to treat cancer in children and adults. They also want to see how well this drug works. The people in this study have Ewing sarcoma or other solid tumors that keep growing after treatment. In addition, their cancers contain a genetic change called a FET fusion.

This study aims to obtain a better understanding of the genetic causes of Hodgkin's disease (a kind of lymphoma) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well as multiple myeloma, leukemia, and related diseases. Together these diseases are referred to as "lymphoproliferative disorders."

Researchers are assessing a CAR T cell therapy to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that keeps growing even with treatment. With CAR T cell therapy, some of your own T cells (a type of white blood cell) are removed. They are genetically modified (changed) in a lab to recognize your own cancer cells. The altered T cells, called CAR T cells, are then returned to your body to find and kill cancer cells. This treatment is a form of immunotherapy.
