Single-Port vs Standard Laparoscopic Surgery for Stomach Cancer
This trial compares two minimally invasive surgical approaches for early-stage stomach cancer affecting the upper portion. Researchers want to see if a newer single-port technique (using one small incision) works as well as traditional laparoscopic surgery (using multiple small incisions) and may cause less pain or faster recovery.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT04973579Recruiting
Stent plus heart surgery for high risk carotid patients
This trial looks at whether doing carotid artery stenting at the same time as heart surgery is safe and effective for people at high risk of stroke around the time of surgery. It targets people with significant carotid narrowing who also need heart surgery for specific heart problems.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT05111015Recruiting
Ablation tracking study for people with atrial fibrillation
This study tracks results after a heart ablation procedure used to treat atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). You may be asked to help by consenting and following the study plan so the researchers can better understand what happens after ablations.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04331249Recruiting
Monitoring heart device during and around your procedure
This trial looks at how to manage and check implanted heart devices (pacemakers/defibrillators) during and around a planned procedure. It may help teams improve safety and decision-making during surgery or catheter procedures.
Fürth, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06199401Recruiting
Testing a new surgery for type A aortic tear
This trial tests a new surgical method (XJ-Procedure) for people with an acute tear in the upper part of the main artery from the heart (type A aortic dissection). It may offer a safer option for those needing 'Sun's procedure' surgery.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT07281417RecruitingPhase 2
Testing adding cemiplimab to chemo before surgery for sinus cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab to standard chemotherapy before surgery helps treat sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if this combination reduces tumors more effectively than chemotherapy alone.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06895590Recruiting
Testing a new water-based blood pressure cuff
This trial tests a new, very accurate blood pressure cuff that uses water to get a better reading. It is for adults who already need a standard blood pressure cuff and an arterial line as part of their hospital care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06638073Recruiting
Continuous vitals monitoring after non-cardiac surgery
This study tests a new device that tracks your vital signs (like heart rate and oxygen levels) continuously after surgery, even when you go home. It may help doctors catch problems early and improve your recovery.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19 years+ - NCT04604418Recruiting
Tracking outcomes during non-heart procedures in children with heart defects
This study looks at how children with congenital heart disease do during routine non-heart procedures, including medical or minor treatments that are not heart-related. It also measures how much health care they use afterward, which may help improve care planning for families.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT04014647Recruiting
Blood test to predict heart risk during planned surgery
This trial checks a blood test called NT-proBNP (a marker related to heart stress) to help predict outcomes after planned surgery. It may help doctors identify which patients are at higher risk so they can tailor monitoring and care.
Norwich, NorfolkAges 18 years+ - NCT06821997RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy Before Surgery for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
This trial is testing a combination of three chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX) given before surgery to shrink borderline resectable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to help make surgery more successful and improve outcomes.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07573930Recruiting
Blood sugar control during surgery with a common steroid
This study looks at how a steroid medication (dexamethasone) affects blood sugar levels during and after surgery. Researchers will use a continuous glucose monitor to track your blood sugar safely and understand how to better manage it in the operating room.

Testing if fasting before a procedure is needed in ICU patients
This trial tests whether not eating before a procedure (called preoperative fasting) is better than fasting in ICU patients who are already receiving tube feedings. It aims to find out if skipping the fast can help you without causing extra risks.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05647265RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests adding immunotherapy before surgery to help patients with sarcomatoid pleural mesothelioma. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer and make surgery possible, while checking safety.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT06997094RecruitingPhase 1
Decitabine plus standard therapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug decitabine to standard treatment (surgery and possibly radiation) can help people with a type of head and neck cancer not caused by HPV. You would receive decitabine before surgery, and then continue with standard care after.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiac surgical procedures?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 49 recruiting cardiac surgical procedures 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 cardiac surgical procedures 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 cardiac surgical procedures 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.
