Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Treatment
This trial tests a newer ablation technique called pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm disorder. The goal is to see if this method works well and is safe for patients who need treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07064616Recruiting
Pulsed field vs. cryoballoon ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
This trial compares two techniques—pulsed field ablation and cryoballoon ablation—to treat persistent atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat that lasts less than a year). The goal is to see which method works better and is safer for patients.
Sagamihara, KanagawaAges 18–85 - NCT07141745Recruiting
Comparing energy types for repeat atrial fibrillation treatment
This trial compares two different energy methods (electroporation vs radiofrequency ablation) guided by 3D imaging for people who have had a prior ablation for atrial fibrillation but still have recurrences. It aims to find which method is safer and more effective for repeat procedures.
WroclawAges 18–85 - NCT07728539Recruiting
Comparing a faster ablation method for atrial fibrillation
This study compares a newer, faster type of ablation (high-power short-duration) with the standard approach for treating atrial fibrillation. The goal is to see which method is safer and more effective at restoring a normal heart rhythm.
MoscowAges 18–70 - NCT04823299Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation ablation using two different energy types
This trial tests whether one ablation approach works better than another for paroxysmal (intermittent) atrial fibrillation by targeting the heart’s “triggers” and “substrate” (where the rhythm problem is). If you qualify, you’ll be randomly assigned to one of two ablation energy methods during a pulmonary vein isolation procedure.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06052098Recruiting
Comparing two ablation methods for early-stage lung cancer
This study compares two ways to destroy early-stage lung cancer without surgery: one using a needle through the chest (CT-guided) and another using a thin tube through the mouth (bronchoscopy-guided). It might be an option if you have small, outer-edge lung cancer and cannot or prefer not to have surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06138873Recruiting
Study of scar-guided ablation for ventricular tachycardia
This trial is testing a new approach to treating a fast, dangerous heart rhythm (ventricular tachycardia) that comes from scar tissue in people with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The goal is to use a special mapping technique to guide the ablation (a procedure that destroys the tiny area causing the problem) to stop the arrhythmia.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07109141Recruiting
Registry of Heart Rhythm Fix Procedures Using Pulsed Field Ablation in Poland
This study tracks people who have a procedure called pulsed field ablation to fix an abnormal heart rhythm (atrial arrhythmia). It's a registry, meaning researchers will collect information to learn more about how well the treatment works and how safe it is.
Wroclaw, Lower Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT05361551Recruiting
Test-guided liver ablation for up to five colorectal metastases
This study tests a planning and confirmation software tool during a needle-based liver procedure to treat colorectal cancer metastases. It aims to help doctors cover tumors more completely while reducing the chance of leaving tumor tissue behind.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04678258Recruiting
Study without x-ray guidance for treating atrial flutter
This trial tests a way to do a heart procedure for “atrial flutter” with less or no x-ray use. It may help reduce radiation exposure while still aiming to cure the abnormal rhythm.
Fürth, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07222462Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation for chronic low back pain
This study tests if radiofrequency ablation, a procedure that uses heat to block pain signals from the facet joints in your spine, can help people with long-term low back pain that hasn't improved with other treatments like physical therapy.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05888662Recruiting
Compare two catheter approaches to treat ventricular tachycardia
This study compares an “outer heart” catheter approach (epicardial) versus an “inner heart” approach (endocardial-only) to treat a dangerous heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. It aims to see which approach works better and is safest for people with ischemic heart disease who are having their first ablation.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07561242Recruiting
Skin response to fractional laser treatments in darker skin tones
This study measures how skin changes after two types of laser treatments (gentler and stronger) on the forearm. Researchers want to understand how these lasers work on darker skin types to improve safety and results.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–60 - NCT07349121Recruiting
Testing the Farapulse and Watchman devices together
This trial is for people who need both a special heart treatment called pulsed field ablation (FARAPULSE) and a device to close off a small pouch in the heart (WATCHMAN FLX Pro or WATCHMAN FLX) to prevent strokes. The study will see how well both procedures work when done together.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT07726901Recruiting
Comparing Two Ablation Methods for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This study compares two techniques for treating persistent atrial fibrillation: one uses standard anatomy-based ablation, and the other uses a special mapping system to guide the procedure. It aims to find which method works better for people who have not had prior ablation.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07308847Recruiting
Study of a new catheter system for treating atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new catheter and mapping system designed to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), which is a type of irregular heartbeat that comes and goes. If you have this condition, the study aims to see how well the new system works with a minimally invasive procedure.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 18–80 - NCT05047198RecruitingPhase 3
Catheter procedures to stop dangerous heart rhythm episodes
This study compares two catheter-based procedures to treat ventricular tachycardia (VT), a fast, dangerous heart rhythm. It looks to see which approach works better at reducing repeat VT events in people with weakened heart pumping.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 55 years+ - NCT05610215Recruiting
Hybrid or catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation in hypertrophic heart
This trial compares two procedures to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who also have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thickened heart muscle). It looks at whether the hybrid approach or a catheter-based approach works better for controlling symptoms and heart rhythm.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06207383Recruiting
Comparing heart treatments for atrial fibrillation and heart failure
This study compares two treatments for people with atrial fibrillation and heart failure: one is a procedure to fix the irregular heartbeat (AF ablation), and the other involves a different type of pacing for the heart. It aims to find which approach helps you feel better and stay out of the hospital.

Long-lasting CTI block with pulsed field ablation
This trial tests a new type of energy called pulsed field (gentle electrical pulses) to create a permanent block in the CTI area—a spot in the heart that can cause a fast, fluttering rhythm. It may be an option for people with both atrial fibrillation and typical atrial flutter.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ablation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 657 recruiting ablation studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a ablation trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a ablation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
