Two new treatments for AF that returned after first procedure
This trial tests two new treatments for persistent atrial fibrillation that came back after an initial procedure. One uses a targeted chemical injection, the other uses a special energy field to re-isolate the veins involved.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT06647251Recruiting
Comparing different radiofrequency modes for atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial tests three different ways of delivering radiofrequency energy using a specific catheter (QDOT) during a first-time procedure to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It aims to find which method works best for patients with recent or short-lasting AF episodes.
Paris, ParisAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06609850Recruiting
Comparing TACE plus lenvatinib with or without ablation for recurrent liver cancer
This trial compares two treatments for people whose liver cancer has come back (recurrent intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma). One group gets TACE plus lenvatinib (a targeted therapy), the other gets TACE plus lenvatinib plus ablation (a procedure that destroys tumors with heat or cold). The goal is to see which combination works better.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06609876Recruiting
Donafenib after ablation for recurrent liver cancer
This trial tests whether taking the drug donafenib after a procedure called ablation (which destroys liver tumors) can help keep your liver cancer from returning. It is for people whose liver cancer has come back within the past year and who have small, treatable tumors.
Beijing, None SelectedAges 18–75 - NCT06644430Recruiting
Burning lung spots plus systemic therapy for liver cancer
This trial tests whether burning away a few cancer spots in the lungs (called ablation) can help people with liver cancer who are already on a systemic treatment. If you have stable liver cancer and only a few lung spots that haven't grown, you may be eligible.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06556485Recruiting
Early ablation for heart failure patients with heart pumps or on transplant list
This trial tests whether doing a catheter ablation early (before dangerous heart rhythms start) can help people with severe heart failure who need a heart transplant or already have an ICD. The goal is to see if this can improve outcomes.
Bad OeynhausenAges 18–99 - NCT07585968Recruiting
New Catheter Treatment for Dangerous Heart Rhythms
This trial tests a new catheter-based procedure to treat life-threatening irregular heartbeats (ventricular tachycardia) that keep coming back despite medication. If you've had a heart attack and your implanted defibrillator hasn't fully controlled these arrhythmias, this procedure might help prevent future episodes.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–85 - NCT07559890Recruiting
Nerve ablation for low back pain with Modic changes
This study tests a procedure that uses heat to stop a nerve in the lower back from sending pain signals. It may help people with long-term central low back pain who have not gotten better with other treatments and have Modic changes on MRI.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07509593Recruiting
Comparing two types of tailbone pain treatment
This study compares two types of a targeted procedure (radiofrequency ablation) to treat long-lasting tailbone pain. It is designed for people who have already gotten good relief from a nerve block injection but whose pain has come back.
Istanbul, PENDİKAges 18–75 - NCT07484087Recruiting
Ablation vs. Surgery for Early Breast Cancer
This trial compares a less invasive treatment called ablation (which uses extreme cold to destroy the tumor) with standard surgery for early-stage breast cancer. It is for women aged 50 or older with a small, low-risk tumor that has not spread.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50 years+ - NCT05717725RecruitingPhase 3
Pulsed heart ablation vs fake procedure for irregular heartbeat
This trial tests whether pulsed-field ablation (a targeted treatment meant to stop abnormal heart signals) works better than a sham, or “placebo,” ablation. It is for certain people with atrial fibrillation (AF) to see if symptoms and heart rhythm outcomes improve.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07470580Recruiting
Heat treatment vs surgery for adrenal gland tumor
This study compares two treatments for a certain type of adrenal gland tumor (Conn's adenoma) that causes high blood pressure. One is a heat-based procedure called radiofrequency ablation and the other is surgery to remove the tumor. The goal is to see which is better at controlling blood pressure.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT07389434Recruiting
Testing reused catheters for atrial fibrillation treatment
This trial tests whether reusing special catheters to treat atrial fibrillation is safe, effective, and better for costs and the environment. It may help people with atrial fibrillation who need a procedure called pulmonary vein isolation.
ZagrebAges 18 years+ - NCT07355270Recruiting
Radiofrequency vapor ablation for type 2 diabetes
This trial tests a new device that uses radiofrequency energy to treat the lining of the upper small intestine in people with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and helps improve blood sugar control.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 22–65 - NCT07353775Recruiting
Heart procedure using imaging and pulsed energy
This trial uses a special imaging tool inside the heart to guide a new type of energy (pulsed field) to treat a specific area in the heart that can cause atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help people with paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation who need a procedure called CTI ablation.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07291973Recruiting
Microwave ablation for small lung tumors
This study tests a new microwave device that uses heat to destroy small lung tumors. It may be an option if your nodule is 20 mm or smaller and cannot be removed with surgery.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06734312Recruiting
Stomach procedure to maintain weight loss after GLP-1s
This study is for people who have lost weight using semaglutide or tirzepatide and are stopping that medication. It tests a stomach procedure (called mucosal ablation) to see if it can help you keep the weight off after stopping the drug.
Cary, North CarolinaAges 21–65 - NCT07233616Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation for chronic venous insufficiency in patients 80+
This study tests whether a procedure called radiofrequency ablation (using heat to close faulty veins) is safe and effective for people aged 80+ with chronic venous insufficiency. It aims to relieve symptoms like leg swelling, skin changes, or ulcers.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 80 years+ - NCT07238894Recruiting

Ethanol vein infusion plus pulsed field ablation for paroxysmal AF
This study compares two treatments for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF that comes and goes): using pulsed electric field ablation alone versus combining it with ethanol infusion into a specific vein. The goal is to see which approach works better for first-time ablation patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ablation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 656 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.
