Testing an endoscopic treatment for pancreatic cancer that can't be removed
This early-phase trial is testing a new endoscopic (from inside the stomach) approach for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that is locally advanced and cannot be removed with surgery. It may help some people who have already tried first chemotherapy and still have a tumor confined to the pancreas area (no spread).
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05815927RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab with targeted radiation for limited head and neck spread
This Phase 3 trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune medicine) to focused radiation (SABR) can better control head and neck cancer that has spread to only 1–5 spots. It may help some people live longer or delay cancer worsening by treating both the immune system and the specific metastases.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05794386Recruiting
Ablation plan guided by left-heart scar map for persistent atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether using a 3D heart “scar map” helps doctors choose a better catheter ablation strategy for people with persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help reduce ongoing AF by targeting the scar area in the left atrium.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 19 years+ - NCT05784428Recruiting
Comparing one versus multiple radiation treatments for cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether giving one strong dose of radiation is as good as several smaller doses for people with a small number of cancer spots that have spread. The goal is to find a treatment that is just as effective but more convenient and with fewer side effects.
Kelowna, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05799664Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation for COPD symptoms
This study tests a bronchoscopic treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to reduce COPD symptoms. It may help people who still have breathing problems despite taking medication.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 40–85 - NCT05679674Recruiting
Radiation plus at-home tumor device for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether combining targeted radiation with an at-home “tumor treating fields” device can better control locally advanced pancreatic cancer. It may help by attacking cancer cells in more than one way after prior chemotherapy.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05641935RecruitingPhase 2
Ultrasound scan to check kidney cancer return after ablation
This study tests whether a special ultrasound scan with contrast can help doctors find kidney cancer that comes back after a procedure called ablation. It may help improve monitoring by comparing the ultrasound results with CT or MRI scans done soon after treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05557526Recruiting
Improving quality of life after atrial fibrillation ablation
This study aims to improve how patients feel in daily life after a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It focuses on whether better patient expectations and support can lead to a better quality of life after the procedure.
Düsseldorf, North Rhine-WestfaliaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05504356Recruiting
Study to improve atrial fibrillation ablation and new therapies
This study looks at what results from atrial fibrillation ablation (a heart rhythm procedure) and newer related therapies. If you recently had the procedure—or are scheduled for it soon—you may use an app and website to share information that helps researchers compare outcomes and improve care.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05511246RecruitingPhase 2
Alcohol injection for fast heart rhythm
This trial tests injecting ethanol (alcohol) into a vein near the heart to treat a dangerous fast heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. It may be an option for people who have an implanted defibrillator and have not found relief with other treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05510167Recruiting
How quitting alcohol affects heart rhythm after ablation
This study looks at whether stopping alcohol after a heart procedure called catheter ablation helps prevent irregular heartbeats from coming back and improves your thinking and quality of life.
Austin, TexasAges 18–85 - NCT05508464Recruiting
Test targeted radiation to control many metastases safely
This study tests whether a focused, high-precision type of radiation can control many cancer spread-out spots (“metastases”) at the same time, while keeping side effects acceptable. It may help people with many metastases live longer or have better disease control by aiming treatment at every treatable spot.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05460611Recruiting
1470nm laser treatment for certain types of hair loss
This study tests whether a specific 1470nm laser can improve hair loss in people with certain scalp conditions. It looks for people whose hair loss is stable for several months and who can keep their usual hair treatments unchanged during the study.
Elmsford, New YorkAges 18–99 - NCT05478694Recruiting
Focal ablation outcomes for prostate cancer
This study looks at how well a targeted procedure (“focal ablation,” which destroys only the cancer area) works for certain men with prostate cancer that is limited to the prostate. It may help doctors understand which people benefit most and what outcomes to expect.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT05501041Enrolling by invitation
Testing symptom relief after thyroid radiofrequency ablation
This study looks at how well symptoms improve after a procedure called radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for thyroid nodules. It may help doctors better understand what kind of symptom relief to expect after the procedure.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05454488RecruitingPhase 2
Study focal freezing for intermediate-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether freezing only the cancer area in the prostate (focal cryotherapy) can control intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It aims to limit treatment to one tumor focus while closely checking results with targeted and follow-up testing.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05377047RecruitingPhase 3
High-precision radiation for limited breast cancer spread
This trial tests a high-precision radiation therapy (called stereotactic ablative radiotherapy) to treat breast cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots in the body. It aims to control the cancer and improve outcomes, and you can join while on your first-line systemic treatment if the cancer is stable.
CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05368090Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided ablation for primary aldosteronism
This trial studies whether a procedure called endoscopic ultrasound–guided radiofrequency ablation can treat primary aldosteronism (a hormone condition that can raise blood pressure and potassium issues). It may help shrink an overactive adrenal growth and reduce the need for surgery for some people.
BergenAges 18–80 - NCT05327686RecruitingPhase 2
Adding focused radiation to immunotherapy for kidney cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding focused, high-precision radiation to immunotherapy helps people with advanced kidney cancer (that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread). It aims to improve cancer control by combining two treatment approaches.
