Recruiting studies
- NCT06828939Recruiting
Balloon treatment for atrial fibrillation
This trial tests a new balloon device that uses gentle energy pulses to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), a type of irregular heartbeat. It may help people whose AF has not improved with medication.
Prague, Czech RepublicAges 18–75 - NCT06253000Recruiting
Heat vs. Freezing for the Back of the Heart
This trial tests two ways to treat the back wall of the heart's left chamber in people with stubborn atrial fibrillation. It compares radiofrequency (heat) and cryoablation (freezing) to see which is safer and works better.
MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT07024927Recruiting
Heart rhythm disorder registry
This study observes people with atrial fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia who are having their first catheter ablation procedure. The goal is to collect information to improve future treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05106270Recruiting
Atrial pressure changes around a heart procedure for atrial fibrillation
This trial studies how changing pressure in the heart’s upper chamber before and after a combined heart procedure affects outcomes in people with atrial fibrillation. It may help guide safer, more effective care for patients who need left atrial appendage closure (a way to reduce stroke risk).
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07617974Recruiting
Heart valve changes in atrial fibrillation patients
This study looks at how atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem) affects the tricuspid valve—one of your heart's four valves. Researchers will use special ultrasound imaging to understand these changes and help improve future treatment.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06007872Recruiting
Heart device implant using ultrasound probe inside the heart
This trial studies a procedure to implant a Watchman device using a tiny ultrasound probe placed inside the heart, avoiding a probe in the throat. It may help patients with atrial fibrillation who need to reduce stroke risk.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06578104Recruiting
Pulsed AF Study: PulseSelect Catheter for Afib
This study tests a new way to treat atrial fibrillation (Afib) using a special catheter system called PulseSelect that delivers short bursts of energy to create scar tissue in the heart. It is for people whose Afib comes and goes or stays for a while but not more than a year, and who have not had a prior ablation procedure or have a pacemaker or defibrillator.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07125417RecruitingPhase 4
Blood thinner comparison after left atrial appendage closure
This study compares two approaches after a left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) procedure: taking no blood thinner versus taking just one antiplatelet medication. It aims to see which option is safer for people with atrial fibrillation who are at risk for bleeding.
Nagoya, Aichi-kenAges Any age - NCT06984731Recruiting
Same-day ablation and WATCHMAN closure for AFib
This study tests whether doing a common AFib procedure (radiofrequency ablation) is safe and effective at the same time as closing off the left atrial appendage with the WATCHMAN FLX device. It's for people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who are already candidates for both treatments.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07096219Enrolling by invitation
Catheter Ablation for Leaky Mitral Valve in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This trial tests if catheter ablation—a procedure to fix heart rhythm—can help people with a leaky mitral valve that is caused by atrial fibrillation (functional mitral regurgitation). If you have persistent atrial fibrillation and moderate leaky valve, you may benefit from this treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06220006Recruiting
Comparing heart tissue burns for atrial fibrillation treatment
This study compares two ways to create small burns in the heart tissue to fix an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation). It uses a special MRI to see how well each method works.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07385599Recruiting
Study of a new heart device for atrial fibrillation patients
This trial tests a new device called LAmbre™ II that closes off a part of the heart called the left atrial appendage to help prevent strokes in people with atrial fibrillation who cannot take blood thinners.
ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT05963698Recruiting
Closing off a heart pouch to prevent stroke
This study tests a procedure that seals off the left atrial appendage (a small heart pouch) to help prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation. You may be considered if your stroke risk is high and you are already on blood-thinner medicine.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06199180Recruiting
Comparing two ablation methods for repeat atrial fibrillation treatment
This trial tests a newer type of energy (pulsed field ablation) against the standard heat-based method (radiofrequency) for people who have already had one ablation and now have atrial fibrillation again. The goal is to see which works better for keeping your heart in a normal rhythm.
GroningenAges 18–80 - NCT05292209RecruitingPhase 2
RiLuzole pill to reduce atrial fibrillation on heart monitoring
This Phase 2 study tests whether riLuzole can reduce episodes of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm) around the time of planned cardioversion. Doctors will monitor your heart using a Holter monitor to count and compare rhythm episodes.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT05633303Recruiting
Personalized ablation plan for persistent atrial fibrillation
This trial looks at whether tailoring an ablation procedure to you can work better for people with persistent atrial fibrillation. It’s for patients getting their first left atrial ablation and who have had AF for less than 24 months.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07362134Enrolling by invitation
Pulsed-field ablation for recurrent atypical atrial flutter
This study tests a new type of energy called pulsed-field ablation (PFA) to treat a specific kind of irregular heartbeat called atypical atrial flutter that keeps coming back after a prior ablation. It aims to see if this approach can safely stop the abnormal rhythm.
TaipeiAges 18–80 - NCT07454135Recruiting
Studying heart muscle disease and atrial fibrillation
This trial looks at how the heart's electrical signals work in people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (a condition where the heart muscle becomes thickened) who also have atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat). The goal is to understand these signals better during a planned ablation procedure, which is a treatment to fix the irregular rhythm.
LondonAges 18–80 - NCT07620262Recruiting
Combined atrial fibrillation treatment and stroke prevention study
This study tests a new approach for people with atrial fibrillation (a type of irregular heartbeat) who are also at high risk for stroke. It combines a procedure to fix the heart's electrical signals with closing off a small pouch in the heart to reduce stroke risk, potentially avoiding long-term blood thinners.
Bay Shore, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06935591Recruiting
AI-guided ablation for hard-to-treat atrial fibrillation
This trial uses an artificial intelligence system (vMap) to find and target abnormal electrical signals outside the pulmonary veins that may be driving atrial fibrillation (AF). The goal is to improve ablation results for people with persistent or recurrent AF.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 22 years+ - NCT05510167Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for atrial fibrillation ablation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 289 recruiting atrial fibrillation 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 atrial fibrillation 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 atrial fibrillation 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.
