It may be an option for people with long-lasting atrial fibrillation or hard-to-control ventricular arrhythmias who are already scheduled for a standard ablation procedure.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06735534Recruiting
Repeat ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation with pulsed field
This trial tests a newer type of ablation (pulsed field ablation) for people with persistent atrial fibrillation who have already had one ablation. The goal is to see if it can fix the heart rhythm problem again.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07441382Recruiting
Comparing treatments for frail older adults with atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether combining a heart procedure (catheter ablation) with a device to close the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is safer or better than blood thinners alone for frail patients 75 years or older with atrial fibrillation and high stroke risk. It aims to find a treatment that reduces stroke while lowering bleeding risks.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 75 years+ - NCT05111015Recruiting
Ablation tracking study for people with atrial fibrillation
This study tracks results after a heart ablation procedure used to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). You may be asked to help by consenting and following the study plan so the researchers can better understand what happens after ablations.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07536087Recruiting
Heat treatment for pancreatic cysts and neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure that uses heat to treat certain pancreatic cysts (fluid-filled sacs) and small neuroendocrine tumors (hormone-producing growths). It may be an option if surgery isn't possible or if you prefer to avoid it.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT06719921Enrolling by invitation
Catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation without x-ray
This study tests a way to perform catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation using a non-fluoroscopic lab, meaning no x-ray is needed during the procedure. It may help patients avoid radiation exposure.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06550921Recruiting
Ablation plus lenvatinib and immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted procedure (ablation) to burn away cancer spots, when combined with lenvatinib and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor), can help control liver cancer that has spread to a few places. It's for people whose liver tumors are already responding to treatment.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT05037370Recruiting
Compare two eye laser procedures for vision correction
This study compares two types of laser surgery for vision problems (PRK versus another approach called “WFO ablation”) to see which works better for clear sight. You may be a candidate if you meet specific eye measurements and can return for follow-up visits.
San Antonio, TexasAges 21–50 - NCT07625189Recruiting
Registry tracking EUS-guided ablation for pancreatic and digestive lesions
This registry collects information about patients receiving a specialized procedure called EUS-guided ablation—using heat to destroy abnormal growths in the pancreas and digestive tract. By tracking your care, researchers aim to better understand how effective and safe this treatment is.
Morgantown, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07559890Recruiting
