This trial compares two ways to treat persistent atrial fibrillation: a minimally invasive surgery approach versus a catheter ablation. It may help people find the most effective option to reduce ongoing abnormal heart rhythm and avoid repeat procedures.
AmsterdamAges 18–80 - NCT05424198Recruiting
A new device for neck pain treatment compared to the standard one
This study tests a new device that uses heat to treat neck pain that has lasted at least 3 months. It compares the new device to the standard one to see if it works better or is safer.
Farmington, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT06288633Recruiting
Heart nerve ablation for slow heart rhythm
This test uses a procedure to ablate (destroy) specific nerves in the heart that may be causing your heart to beat too slowly. The goal is to help your heart speed up naturally when needed, so you may avoid needing a permanent pacemaker.
Saint PetersburgAges 18–65 - NCT06333327Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation ablation with a balloon catheter registry
This study is collecting data on people having a procedure called catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation using a special radiofrequency balloon. The goal is to see how well it works and to help improve future treatments.
BrusselsAges 18–85 - NCT06333587Recruiting
Minimally invasive thyroid treatments for small thyroid cancer
This trial is testing less invasive treatments for a very small, slow-growing type of thyroid cancer (papillary thyroid microcarcinoma). If you have this specific cancer and are a candidate for a non-surgical procedure, the study will check how well these treatments work.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06336447Recruiting
Virtual reality and nerve block for chronic knee pain
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) before a standard heat-based nerve block (radiofrequency ablation) can improve relief of long-term knee pain caused by arthritis. If you qualify, you'll receive the RFA procedure and may be randomly assigned to also use VR.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06223711RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with radiation therapy for limited-spread small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus radiation and chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has only a few distant spots. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer better.
Augsburg, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT04838899Recruiting
Radiation for limited, progressing prostate cancer on abiraterone
This study tests whether a very focused type of radiation (SABR) can control a small number of prostate cancer spots that are starting to grow while you’re already on abiraterone. It may help by treating only the areas that are progressing, while other areas remain controlled.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05008744Recruiting
Laser treatment for twin-to-twin transfusion using one shared placenta
This study tests a laser procedure that seals abnormal blood vessel connections in identical twins sharing one placenta (twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome). The goal is to improve outcomes by stopping unbalanced blood flow between the twins.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Any age - NCT07852221Recruiting
Pace and ablate for atrial fibrillation
This study looks at how well a treatment called 'pace and ablate' works for people with atrial fibrillation. It involves using a pacemaker or similar device to control the heart rate, and it aims to see who benefits most and how they do over time.
ZabrzeAges 18 years+ - NCT06326294Recruiting
Comparing two treatments to reduce cervical cancer risk in women with HIV
This study compares two treatments (Thermal Ablation and LEEP) to lower the risk of cervical cancer in women living with HIV. It aims to find which option works better and is safer for this group.
