Factors linked to slow heart rate after pulsed field ablation
This study looks at why some people have a slower heart rate after a heart procedure called pulmonary vein isolation using pulsed field ablation (PFA). It aims to find out what factors might make this more likely, which could help doctors predict and manage it better.

Comparing two guidance methods for pulsed field ablation in atrial fibrillation
This trial compares two ways of guiding a procedure to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). One uses special sound waves to see inside the heart, and the other uses electrical mapping. Both are used with the FARAPULSE system to deliver a type of energy called pulsed fields to fixed areas of the heart.
ZagrebAges 18 years+ - NCT06560047Recruiting
Early catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation with heart failure
This trial tests whether early catheter ablation (a procedure to fix irregular heartbeats) helps people who have both heart failure and atrial fibrillation. It looks at how this treatment affects your heart function and quality of life.
AalborgAges 18–80 - NCT04521790Recruiting
Biopsy-guided treatment for suspected inflammation of the heart
This study looks at people 18 and older with suspected myocarditis (inflammation of the heart). It uses an inner-heart biopsy and tailored treatment based on the likely cause to improve diagnosis and care, especially for people with different heart rhythm or non-rhythm symptoms.
Milan, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT07755176Enrolling by invitation
Desmoid tumor ablation recovery survey
This study follows patients with desmoid tumors who are having a procedure called ablation, which uses heat or cold to destroy the tumor. The study asks patients about their symptoms and quality of life after the procedure to see how well it works.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06591260Recruiting
Heart biopsy and treatment for kids with heart inflammation
This study looks at using heart biopsies to find the cause of heart inflammation (myocarditis) in children and then tailoring treatment to that cause. It aims to improve care for children with or without irregular heartbeats.
Milan, MilanoAges birth–17 years - NCT07737171Recruiting
EUS-guided radiofrequency ablation for pancreatic lesions
This study tests how safe and effective endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) is for treating pancreatic growths that might become cancer or already are cancer. It is for people who are already scheduled to have this procedure as part of their care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07726056Recruiting
Heart ablation in athletes with atrial fibrillation
This trial tests if a heart procedure (cardiac ablation) helps endurance athletes who have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) perform better in sports. Athletes will track their training data before and after the procedure to see if their performance improves.
MelbourneAges 18–80 - NCT07718672RecruitingPhase 2
New radiation technique for early-stage lung cancer
This trial compares a newer, more targeted type of radiation (hotspot SABR) with the standard SABR approach for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if the newer method works just as well or better while possibly reducing side effects.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05826665Recruiting
Study of heart rhythm mapping during AF ablation
This is an observational study that looks at how a special heart mapping system may affect the procedure and outcomes for people having ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help doctors better understand what works best and how procedures turn out.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 18–80 - NCT05887635Recruiting
RF treatment of the duodenum for type 2 diabetes control
This trial tests whether a procedure that uses heat energy (radiofrequency vapor ablation) applied in the first part of the small intestine (duodenum) can improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It may help lower blood sugar when standard oral medicines are not keeping it in range.
SantiagoAges 18–65 - NCT07675395Enrolling by invitation
Heart remodeling after pulsed field ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation
This study looks at how a new type of heart procedure, called pulsed field ablation, affects the heart's structure in people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It may help doctors understand if this treatment improves heart function over time.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06671119Recruiting
Weight regain treatment after sleeve gastrectomy with mucosal ablation
This trial tests a procedure to help people who have regained weight after a sleeve gastrectomy. It uses a special technique to treat the stomach lining and may help you lose weight again.
Cary, North CarolinaAges 22–60 - NCT07667192Recruiting
Re-treating gynecologic cancer with repeat radiation or ablation
This trial studies using additional radiation or tumor-destroying techniques for gynecologic cancer that has come back after previous radiation treatment. It helps doctors understand if this approach is safe and effective for women with recurrent disease.
Zamość, Lublin VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06676553RecruitingPhase 4
Optimized kidney nerve treatment for high blood pressure
This trial tests a new way to perform a procedure called renal denervation, which uses radio waves to calm overactive kidney nerves that can raise blood pressure. By getting feedback during the procedure, doctors hope to make the treatment more effective for people with high blood pressure.

Anesthesia effects on inflammation in liver cancer treatment
This study looks at how different types of anesthesia or sedation affect inflammation in people with early-stage liver cancer who are having a procedure called radiofrequency ablation (RFA). RFA uses heat to destroy small tumors, and researchers want to see if the choice of anesthesia influences the body's immune response, which might help improve recovery.
Cluj-Napoca, ClujAges 18–80 - NCT06516822Recruiting
Comparing two ablation methods for long-standing atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether adding extra scar lines (linear ablation) to the standard pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) is better than CPVI alone for people with long-standing persistent AF that has lasted 1 to 3 years. The goal is to see which approach reduces AF better.

Heart Mapping to Personalize Atrial Fibrillation Treatment
This trial tests a new way to map the heart's electrical signals to help doctors better target and treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). If you're having a procedure to treat AF, this study may help improve the success of your treatment.

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.
