Recruiting studies
- NCT06212791Recruiting
Exercise MRI Study of Heart Function After Ablation
This study uses an exercise MRI to look at how the upper chambers of the heart (left atrium) work after ablation for atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors understand if the procedure improves heart function during exercise.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06216769Recruiting
Pill-in-the-pocket blood thinners after AF ablation
This study tests a 'pill-in-the-pocket' approach for blood thinners after a catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. Instead of taking a daily blood thinner, you may only take it when needed, which could reduce the risk of bleeding while still preventing strokes.
SeoulAges 19–89 - NCT06220006Recruiting
Comparing heart tissue burns for atrial fibrillation treatment
This study compares two ways to create small burns in the heart tissue to fix an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation). It uses a special MRI to see how well each method works.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 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+ - NCT06239649Recruiting
Nerve block before knee replacement for faster recovery
This trial tests whether a numbing injection (nerve block) around the knee before surgery can help you recover faster and feel less pain after a total knee replacement. It is for people with knee osteoarthritis who are ready for their first knee replacement surgery.
Denizli, PamukkaleAges 40–85 - NCT06253000Recruiting
Heat vs. Freezing for the Back of the Heart
This trial tests two ways to treat the back wall of the heart's left chamber in people with stubborn atrial fibrillation. It compares radiofrequency (heat) and cryoablation (freezing) to see which is safer and works better.
MoscowAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT06294028Recruiting
Ablation vs Defibrillator for Well-Tolerated Fast Heartbeat
This study compares two treatments for a fast heartbeat called ventricular tachycardia in people with prior heart attacks and relatively preserved heart function: one uses heat energy (ablation) to fix the electrical problem, and the other places an implantable defibrillator that shocks the heart to restore normal rhythm. The goal is to find which approach works better for people whose symptoms are well-tolerated.
Toulouse, FranceAges 18–90 - NCT06303609Recruiting
Radiofrequency treatment for pelvic pain during sex
This study tests whether a special type of radiofrequency (a gentle heat treatment) can help women who have pain during vaginal penetration. You will not receive any other treatment for your pain during the study.
Salvador, Estado de BahiaAges 18–45 - NCT06308094Recruiting
CT scan to measure heart health before AF ablation
This trial uses a special CT scan to measure how much extra fluid is in your heart muscle. It aims to help doctors better understand and treat your atrial fibrillation before you have a procedure called ablation.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT06310564Recruiting
SBRT for limited metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether focused radiation (SBRT) can treat 1 to 3 metastases in people with colorectal cancer that has spread but is still low or intermediate risk. It may be an option if you are starting first or second line systemic therapy and your primary tumor is under control.
Negrar, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT06324201Recruiting
Long-term safety of a new ablation system for paroxysmal AF
This study tests a new system (QDOT MICRO and VISITAG SURPOINT) used during a catheter ablation procedure to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). It aims to see how safe and effective it is over the long term for people whose AF comes and goes and hasn't been controlled by medication.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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.
MaputoAges 25–49 - NCT06331455RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation, immunotherapy, and surgery for chest wall lung cancer
This trial tests combining radiation, immunotherapy (durvalumab), and surgery for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the chest wall or top of the lung. It aims to see if this approach can help remove the cancer completely.
TorontoAges 18–99 - 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+ - NCT06355063Recruiting
CellFX device for atrial fibrillation during open-heart surgery
This trial tests a new device called CellFX that uses nanosecond pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation during open-heart surgery. It may help you if you already need heart surgery and also have AFib.
ViennaAges 18–85 - NCT06360939Recruiting
Radiation or ablation for ventricular tachycardia in heart disease
This trial compares two treatments—radiation therapy or catheter ablation—for people with structural heart disease who have a type of fast heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. It aims to see which approach works better to prevent repeat episodes.
WestmeadAges 18 years+ - NCT06414083Recruiting
Comparing ablation methods for endometriosis surgery
This study compares two different ablation techniques used during surgery to remove endometriosis lesions. It aims to see which method works better for relieving pelvic pain symptoms.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06440993RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with bile duct heat therapy for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of a drug (durvalumab) that helps your immune system fight cancer, plus a special heat treatment applied inside the bile duct. It is for people with bile duct cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and who need a stent to open the bile duct.
AachenAges 18 years+ - NCT06455098Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
This study tests a new procedure called pulsed field ablation using a special catheter to treat paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of heart rhythm problem that comes and goes. It may be an option for people whose AF hasn't been controlled well with medication.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–80 - NCT06455488Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ablation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 666 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.
