Recruiting studies
- NCT07588386Recruiting
Early Colonoscopy After Low Rectal Cancer Surgery
This study tests whether doing a colonoscopy (camera exam of the colon) early after surgery for low rectal cancer helps catch a serious complication called anastomotic leakage—when the surgical connection between bowel segments breaks down. Early detection might help prevent severe infections and improve outcomes.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT07208786Recruiting
Vacuum therapy to prevent leaks after colorectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether using a special vacuum device inside the surgical connection (anastomosis) right after surgery can help prevent leaks. If you are having surgery for colorectal cancer, this treatment might reduce your risk of a serious complication.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06865638Recruiting
Testing for colorectal anastomotic leaks after surgery
This trial is testing a new method to check for leaks after colorectal cancer surgery. The goal is to see if it helps prevent complications and improves recovery.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT07036588Recruiting
Using a drain tube to prevent leaks after rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests if placing a special drain tube in the anus after rectal cancer surgery can reduce the risk of leakage at the surgical connection. It is for people with rectal cancer who are having surgery to remove the tumor and reconnect the bowel.
Yuzhong, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06493565Recruiting
Early scope check for leak after colorectal surgery
This trial tests whether a routine endoscopic exam shortly after colorectal surgery can catch a leak early, which may prevent complications. If you are 18 or older and had a low colorectal or coloanal anastomosis within 15 cm of the anorectal junction, you may be eligible.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07035431Recruiting
Endo-SPONGE for Leaks After Colorectal Surgery
This trial tests a treatment called Endo-SPONGE for people who have a leak at the connection site after colorectal surgery. It aims to help the leak heal using a special sponge placed through an endoscope.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06553261Recruiting
Leakage after right colon surgery study
This study looks at how often leaks happen after planned surgery on the right side of the colon (the part that connects to the small intestine). It may help doctors understand risks better.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07144683Recruiting
Colorectal surgery leak study
This trial is studying how often leaks happen after colorectal surgery that connects two parts of the intestine. It may help doctors better understand and prevent this complication.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–80 - NCT07495020Recruiting
Weight loss surgery study for type 2 diabetes
This study tests a new type of weight loss surgery for people with type 2 diabetes and a body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 35. The surgery uses a clip and a special stitch to help with weight loss and diabetes control.
AstanaAges 18–65 - NCT06688383Recruiting
Leak after right colon cancer surgery: a study on outcomes
This study looks at how often a leak happens at the connection site after right colon cancer surgery. It includes both emergency and planned surgeries, and all types of surgical approaches. The goal is to learn more about this complication so doctors can prevent it better.
Orbassano, PiedmontAges 18 years+ - NCT07763379Recruiting
Blood test for early detection of leaks after intestinal surgery
This study checks whether a simple blood test for C-reactive protein (CRP) can help doctors spot a leak early after intestinal surgery. A leak is a serious complication where the repaired area opens up, and early detection may lead to quicker treatment and better recovery.
Sohag, Sohag GovernorateAges 18–70 - NCT05826743Recruiting
Check a new alternative to ileostomy after bowel surgery
This trial tests whether a device called COLO-BT can be a safer, effective alternative to an ileostomy (a temporary or longer-term opening from the intestine to the skin). It’s for certain adults having a bowel connection low in the pelvis, where leak risk matters.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 19–80 - NCT07486570Recruiting
Stenting to prevent leaks after colon surgery
This trial tests if placing a small mesh tube (stent) in a major artery can prevent leaks where the colon is reconnected during surgery. It may help people who have a blockage in that artery but no symptoms from it.
Emmen, DrentheAges 40 years+ - NCT05168839RecruitingPhase 3
Using dye scans during surgery to help prevent leakage
This trial tests whether using a special dye and camera during colorectal cancer surgery can help lower the risk of a surgical “leak” where the bowel is joined. If you’re having a planned left-sided colectomy or high rectal resection, the scan may help surgeons see blood flow more clearly.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06464978Recruiting
Reinforcement patches during stomach cancer surgery
This study tests whether adding a special reinforcement patch to the surgical stapler during stomach cancer surgery helps reduce complications. It compares this to the standard stapler method.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT07417358Recruiting
Single-stapled method for colorectal reconnection
This study compares a single-stapled method for reconnecting the colon after left-sided colorectal surgery. It aims to see if this technique works as well or better than the usual approach.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07605611Recruiting
Somatostatin and Diet vs. Stoma After Rectal Cancer Surgery
This trial tests whether using a medication called somatostatin plus a clear liquid diet can safely prevent serious complications after surgery to remove rectal cancer, without needing a temporary opening in the abdomen (stoma). You'll be randomly assigned to receive either somatostatin with diet changes or a stoma, depending on your individual risk factors.
Ezhou, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07132970Recruiting
Leakage rate of sutured bowel connection after right colon removal
This trial is testing how well hand-sewn or partially stitched connections (anastomoses) hold up after right colon removal for cancer. It may help improve surgical techniques for people undergoing this operation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for anastomotic leakage?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 18 recruiting anastomotic leakage 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 anastomotic leakage 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 anastomotic leakage 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.
