Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT04617717Recruiting
Personalized treatment for abnormal heartbeats needing ablation
This trial studies a customized treatment plan for people who have premature ventricular beats (PVCs) and have been referred for a procedure called PVC ablation. It may help doctors choose the best approach for stopping these extra heartbeats.
OsloAges 18–90 - NCT04654338RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Two types of targeted radiation for favorable prostate cancer
This trial tests whether two “ablative” (high-dose, focused) radiation treatments can work well for men with favorable-risk prostate cancer. It looks at whether the treatments are practical and safe, especially for urinary side effects.
Toronto, OntarioAges Any age - NCT04698252RecruitingPhase 2
Local treatment for ER/PR-positive limited spread breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether treating a small number of metastatic spots with a local approach (like targeted radiation, surgery, or ablation) can help people with ER/PR-positive breast cancer. It aims to help when the cancer has spread only to a few areas and has not significantly worsened after initial whole-body treatment.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT04715425Recruiting
Surgery vs catheter procedure for persistent atrial fibrillation
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 - NCT04737941Recruiting
Study of treatment for leg ulcers from weak leg veins
This study looks at people with a healing or healing-worsening leg ulcer caused by weak veins (venous reflux). It may help improve care for this common type of ulcer and reduce time to healing by testing an approach for venous ulcers.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT04831970Recruiting
Ablative radiation after prostate surgery for early recurrence
This trial studies a targeted, high-intensity radiation approach given after prostate removal surgery when prostate cancer seems to be coming back locally. It may help control the disease in the pelvis while avoiding treatment that could cause more side effects.
Rozzano, MIAges 18–90 - NCT04831983Recruiting
Radiation treatment for intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies a type of focused radiation (“ablative radiotherapy”) for prostate tumors considered intermediate- or high-risk. It may help improve control of the cancer while aiming for acceptable side effects.
Monza, MBAges 18–90 - NCT04880226Recruiting
MRI scan used safely during guided ablation planning
This study checks whether a special kind of MRI scan is safe enough to use during planning for an MRI-guided ablation procedure. It may help improve how these procedures are done while keeping additional risk low.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06889610RecruitingPhase 2
Ablation plus drug therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests combining a liver tumor ablation procedure with systemic drugs for people with advanced colorectal, breast, or melanoma cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07429214Recruiting
Study of a new catheter for atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial tests a new catheter system to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) by creating small scars in the heart to block faulty signals. It may help people with symptoms that continue despite medication and who are scheduled for a standard ablation procedure.
AalstAges 18–75 - NCT07523620Recruiting
Heart rhythm procedure with left atrial appendage closure
This trial tests a procedure that closes off a small pouch in the heart (left atrial appendage) while also treating irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) with a catheter ablation procedure. The goal is to reduce your stroke risk and treat your symptoms without needing blood thinners long-term.
Brussels, B CAP RAges 18 years+ - NCT04947254RecruitingPhase 2
Add niraparib to hormone therapy after prostate radiation
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding niraparib to standard hormone therapy (androgen ablation) after radiation works better for men with high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help control the cancer for longer, while also collecting extra tissue and blood to study why the treatment works or doesn’t.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05001477Recruiting
Registry for men receiving TULSA-PRO prostate treatment
This is a study registry that collects information from men who are going to receive TULSA-PRO treatment. It helps researchers understand how the treatment is used and what outcomes people experience.
West Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05116384Recruiting
Renal nerve ablation plus AF ablation for persistent AF
This study tests whether treating kidney-related nerves along with the usual AF (irregular heartbeat) catheter procedure works better than the usual procedure alone. It may help some people with persistent AF, but you must meet specific heart and kidney safety requirements.
Short Hills, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05144503Recruiting
Test of a new catheter procedure for irregular heart rhythm
This study checks how safe and effective a special catheter procedure (SpherePVI) is for treating paroxysmal (comes and goes) or persistent atrial fibrillation. You may be considered if your atrial fibrillation keeps returning and you’ve already tried at least one medication but it didn’t work or you couldn’t tolerate it.
VilniusAges 18–75 - NCT05183074Recruiting
MRI-guided focused radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests a newer way to plan and deliver radiation for prostate cancer using real-time MRI guidance. It may help by aiming high-dose treatment precisely while treating nearby disease and (in some cases) limited metastatic spots.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05189314Recruiting
Study of life quality changes with benign thyroid nodules
This study looks at how benign (non-cancer) thyroid nodules affect people’s day-to-day life and health outcomes. It may help doctors better understand what changes matter most to patients.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05223803RecruitingPhase 2
Study radiation for early metastatic prostate cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a radiation-focused approach for people with newly diagnosed (de novo) prostate cancer that has spread to a small number of spots, especially in bone. It aims to see how well the treatment controls the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05224934Recruiting
Radiation before surgery for retroperitoneal soft-tissue sarcoma
This trial tests giving a shorter, lower-dose radiation treatment before surgery for a retroperitoneal (deep belly/back space) soft-tissue sarcoma. The goal is to shrink or control the tumor and make surgery more effective and safe.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05227053Recruiting
Cryoablation study for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after approval
This study looks at outcomes after a specific heart procedure called pulmonary vein isolation done with a cryoablation catheter. It is for adults with symptomatic “paroxysmal” atrial fibrillation who are planning this exact procedure.
