HasseltAges 18–75 - NCT06526338RecruitingPhase 2
Study treatment after liver surgery or microwave ablation for liver cancer
This study tests an investigational drug called IP-001 given after surgery or microwave ablation for liver cancer. The goal is to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05053802RecruitingPhase 2
Microwave tumor ablation plus immunotherapy for multiple lung cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether combining microwave ablation (a procedure to destroy lung tumors) with an immune checkpoint inhibitor can control multiple early lung cancers safely. It also aims to see how well the immune treatment helps after ablation, in people whose cancers have not spread.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–79 - NCT02558699Recruiting
Virtual mapping guided catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether a “virtual” computer map created from your heart scans can help doctors do catheter ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to improve the procedure for people whose AF symptoms were not controlled well with anti-arrhythmia medicines.
SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT05369065RecruitingPhase 1
Artery ablation for type 2 diabetes with kidney and liver arteries
This Phase 1 study tests whether a minimally invasive artery procedure can improve type 2 diabetes and related health problems by targeting kidney and liver blood vessels. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is safety and learning how the treatment works in people who meet specific diabetes, blood pressure, and blood test requirements.
TbilisiAges 21–65 - NCT05991856Recruiting
Comparing ablation vs. surgery for adrenal tumors causing high blood pressure
This trial compares two treatments—ultrasound-guided ablation and laparoscopic adrenalectomy—for a type of adrenal tumor called aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) that causes high blood pressure and low potassium. The goal is to see which treatment works better for patients with a single, non-cancerous tumor.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05444478Recruiting
Microwave ablation plus lenvatinib for recurrent liver cancer
This trial tests whether combining heat treatment to kill liver tumors (microwave ablation) with the medicine lenvatinib can better control recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help shrink tumors or slow growth for people whose cancer has come back but who have limited tumor burden.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–75 - NCT07855367Recruiting
Knee pain relief study for osteoarthritis patients
This study compares two procedures that use extreme cold or heat to target the nerves around the knee, with the goal of reducing pain from knee osteoarthritis. It is specifically for people with advanced knee osteoarthritis who also have bladder cancer.
CairoAges 40 years+ - NCT06145906Recruiting
Optimizing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation
