Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05111964Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for soft tissue sarcoma tumors
This trial tests a non-surgical ultrasound treatment (HIFU) that targets the tumor from the outside of the body. It may help by shrinking or controlling certain types of soft tissue sarcoma or desmoid tumors when they are hard to remove surgically or when surgery/chemo/radiation is not a good option.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05115214Recruiting
Device test for treating irregular heartbeat with AF ablation
This trial studies a heart procedure using the Affera SpherePVI system to treat paroxysmal (comes and goes) or persistent atrial fibrillation. It’s for people who still have symptoms despite at least one anti-arrhythmia medicine, and who are good candidates for catheter ablation.
PragueAges 18–75 - NCT05163197Recruiting
Registry for laser treatment of localized prostate cancer
This is a registry study that collects information from men with localized prostate cancer who receive transperineal laser ablation (a procedure done through the skin between the scrotum and anus). It may help doctors better understand outcomes and refine treatment choices over time.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05164107Recruiting
Test a new pulsed-field catheter procedure for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new pulsed-field device used during an atrial fibrillation (AF) catheter ablation, aiming to improve safety and effectiveness. It’s for people who have AF and are planning an AF ablation procedure.
PragueAges 18–75 - NCT05239364Recruiting
Ablation for an abnormal heart rhythm after prior AF surgery
This trial tests a procedure to “ablate” (treat) a specific fast heart rhythm in the upper chambers of the heart that happens after previous atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation or heart surgery. It may help by stopping the rhythm and reducing symptoms, while doctors check how well the targeted mapping and ablation work.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05241236Recruiting
Laser ablation guided by MRI and ultrasound for prostate cancer
This trial looks at a treatment that uses MRI and ultrasound to guide a laser to destroy prostate cancer. It may help men with low- or intermediate-risk prostate cancer who do not have spread beyond the prostate.
Miami Lakes, FloridaAges 50 years+ - NCT05266144Recruiting
Catheter ablation for non-valvular atrial fibrillation
This trial studies catheter ablation, a procedure that targets heart rhythm triggers, for people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help improve rhythm control, but you must meet specific heart and testing requirements and avoid certain conditions.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05281237Recruiting
Microwave ablation for small early lung cancer nodules
This trial studies a flexible “microwave heating” probe placed through the airways to treat small lung cancer nodules. It may help some patients avoid more invasive treatment by destroying the tumor during a bronchoscopy procedure.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT05301881RecruitingPhase 2
Keep the same treatment after limited metastatic growth
This study tests whether continuing your current systemic (whole-body) therapy is safe and helpful when only 1–2 metastatic spots start growing. It also checks whether adding local treatment (such as radiation or ablation) to those spots can better control the cancer.
AlkmaarAges 18 years+ - NCT05337397Recruiting
Outpatient laser treatment for repeat low-grade bladder tumors
This trial tests an outpatient laser procedure to remove recurring low-grade, non-solid bladder tumors. It may help prevent or control tumor growth with treatment done outside the hospital, if you meet the tumor and health criteria.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05337241Recruiting
Saline enhanced needle ablation for stubborn heart rhythm
This trial studies a special “needle” ablation method (with saline) to treat a dangerous, repeat heart rhythm problem called monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (VT). It’s for adults whose VT keeps coming back despite prior treatments and who may not benefit from another standard ablation.
