- NCT07383909Recruiting
Remote ischemic preconditioning for type A aortic dissection surgery
This trial tests a technique called remote ischemic preconditioning, which involves temporarily reducing blood flow to a limb to protect the heart and brain during emergency surgery for a severe aortic tear (type A aortic dissection). The goal is to see if this can improve recovery and reduce complications.

Fenestrated or branched stent for large aortic tears or bulges
This study tests a special type of stent-graft (a tube with branch openings) to treat large or rapidly growing aneurysms and certain aortic dissections in the chest/abdomen or aortic arch. It aims to prevent the aneurysm from rupturing and to safely restore blood flow to key branch arteries.

Trial for penile squamous cancer with swollen groin or pelvis nodes
This Phase 3 study tests treatment options for penile squamous cell cancer that has spread to nearby groin and/or pelvic lymph nodes (but not to distant organs). If you have the right stage and haven’t had certain prior treatments, this trial may offer a structured treatment plan and close monitoring.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02756091Recruiting

Long-Term Study of Castor and Cratos Stents for Aortic Arch Repair
This study tracks how well two types of stents (Castor and Cratos) work for people who have had a repair of the main artery in the chest (the aortic arch). If you already received one of these stents during your procedure, the study will follow your recovery and any future aortic events.
HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07117500Enrolling by invitation
Exercise rehab program for aortic dissection patients
This trial tests a personalized exercise program for people who had a serious tear in the aorta (aortic dissection) and were treated with a stent or graft. The goal is to help you recover safely and improve your strength and well-being.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT05912608Enrolling by invitation
Best way to repair certain urgent aortic tears
This study looks at the best surgical strategy for repairing an acute (sudden) tear of the ascending aorta. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective repair method for people who need urgent surgery soon after symptoms begin.
Saint-DenisAges 18–90 - NCT07759960Recruiting
Removing small rectal tumors with two endoscopic methods
This study compares two minimally invasive ways to remove small rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), which are growths in the rectum that are usually not cancer. The goal is to find which method is safer and more effective with fewer side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07166133Recruiting
GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis for Zone 0/1 Study
This study is checking how well the GORE TAG Thoracic Branch Endoprosthesis works for people who need a stent graft in a specific part of the aorta (Zone 0 or 1). It may help if you have an aneurysm or other condition requiring treatment in that area.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07754955Recruiting
Two tools for removing large colon polyps compared
This trial compares two special tools used to remove large, flat colon polyps during a colonoscopy. The goal is to see which tool is safer and more effective at removing the entire polyp in one piece, which may help avoid surgery.
Bangkok Noi, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT05378087Recruiting
Compare two ways to plan treatment for cervical cancer
This study compares two staging methods—using surgery results versus imaging tests—to help doctors plan treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer. It may improve how accurately the cancer is mapped, which could affect treatment choices and outcomes.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06766838Recruiting
Comparing circumcision methods for young boys
This study compares different circumcision techniques in boys under age 5. It will help doctors understand which method works best.
SohagAges Up to 5 years - NCT04174079Recruiting
Chemotherapy after esophagus surgery for lymph node spread
This trial studies whether adding chemotherapy after surgery for esophageal squamous cell cancer can reduce the chance the cancer returns. It focuses on people whose surgery removed cancerous lymph nodes and who are healthy enough to tolerate chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05625373RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Antibiotic powder during groin surgery to prevent infection
This trial studies whether placing an antibiotic powder (vancomycin) directly in the surgical wound during groin lymph node surgery can lower the risk of surgical site infections. It may help reduce wound infections after surgery for vulvar dysplasia.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT04581122Recruiting
Tests how lymph node surgery choices affect lung nodule outcomes
This study looks at whether different lymph node removal methods during lung surgery change outcomes for certain abnormal lung spots. It focuses on ground-glass nodules that stay the same after treatment-free observation and have a mostly solid portion on CT.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07392268Recruiting
Testing AI to help during endoscopic surgery
This trial tests an AI system to help guide doctors during a minimally invasive procedure to remove early-stage lesions in the esophagus, stomach, or colon. If you're scheduled for this surgery, the AI may help make it safer and more precise.
Hong KongAges 18–85 - NCT06320158Recruiting
Understanding muscle loss and obesity in older adults
This study looks at the link between muscle loss (sarcopenia) and obesity in older adults. It aims to understand why some older people who are overweight or obese also lose muscle strength and function, and how this affects recovery after hip surgery.
MilanAges 65–99 - NCT07315893Recruiting
Closing stomach defects with a stitching device
This trial tests a special stitching tool to close holes in the stomach after removing abnormal growths. It may help patients heal better after a routine procedure to remove suspicious tissue.

TAD biopsy for HER2+ breast cancer with positive lymph nodes
This trial tests the accuracy of a targeted axillary dissection (TAD) after chemotherapy in people with HER2+ breast cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes. It aims to see if the TAD method can correctly identify which lymph nodes are cancer-free before surgery.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07080944Recruiting
Lymph node biopsy after chemo for inflammatory breast cancer
This trial is testing if a less invasive sentinel lymph node biopsy can replace more extensive lymph node removal in women with inflammatory breast cancer who have had chemotherapy and whose nodes appear cancer-free. This could help avoid unnecessary side effects.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for dissection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 237 recruiting dissection 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 dissection 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 dissection 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.
