Seoul, KoreaAges 18–80 - NCT06772740Recruiting
Middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma
This trial tests a procedure called middle meningeal artery embolization, which aims to stop the bleeding and reduce the fluid buildup from a chronic subdural hematoma. It may be an option for patients who have a hematoma at least 10mm thick and one or more risk factors such as older age, blood thinners, diabetes, or certain scan features.
Nishinomiya, HyōgoAges 18 years+ - NCT06859164RecruitingPhase 2
Knee artery treatment for chronic osteoarthritis pain
This trial tests a procedure called genicular artery embolization to reduce pain in people with knee osteoarthritis that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if blocking certain blood vessels can relieve pain and help you avoid or delay knee replacement surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 40–80 - NCT06872567Recruiting
Knee artery block vs. steroid injection for arthritis pain
This study compares two treatments for knee arthritis pain: a procedure that blocks blood flow to the painful area (genicular artery embolization) versus a steroid injection into the knee joint. The goal is to see which one provides better pain relief.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 40 years+ - NCT06912009Recruiting
How long to treat blood clots in the lungs
This trial looks at how long people need blood-thinning medicine after a serious blood clot in the lungs. It might help doctors find the best treatment length for each person.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06914648Recruiting
Liver preparation before surgery study for certain liver cancers
This study tests a procedure called portal vein embolization (PVE) to help grow the healthy part of the liver before surgery. It may be an option for people with certain liver cancers who need more healthy liver tissue before their operation.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06930677Recruiting
Knee osteoarthritis treatment study using embolization
This trial tests a new treatment called embolization using a special material (NBGM200) to block certain blood vessels in the knee. It may help reduce pain and improve function in people with knee osteoarthritis.
GhentAges 50 years+ - NCT06945887Recruiting
Arterial embolization for desmoid tumors
This trial tests a treatment called arterial embolization for desmoid tumors (non-cancerous growths) that are causing symptoms and growing. The goal is to see if blocking the blood supply to the tumor can shrink it or stop it from growing.
Bologna, BOAges 12 years+ - NCT06946732Recruiting
Acostream for high-risk and intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism
This trial is testing a device (called the Acostream) to break up blood clots in the lungs for people with serious pulmonary embolism who cannot receive standard clot-busting drugs or surgery. It may be an option if you have high-risk or intermediate-risk PE and are between 18 and 85.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06962371Recruiting
A study testing a new device during TAVR heart valve replacement
This trial is testing a new device called POINT-GUARD that is used during TAVR (a procedure to replace a heart valve). It aims to see if the device can safely catch any debris or particles that might travel to the brain during the procedure.
Clayton, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06965452Recruiting
Embolization for back pain from worn-out facet joints
This study tests if a minimally invasive procedure, called trans-arterial embolization, can reduce low back pain caused by aging facet joints (facet arthropathy). It may help people who haven't found relief from other treatments like injections or nerve blocks.
Manhasset, New YorkAges 18–85 - NCT07003646Recruiting
Treating acute pulmonary embolism with clot-dissolving or catheter procedures
This study looks at how well different treatments work for a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism). It includes people who are getting or have already gotten a clot-dissolving medicine or a catheter procedure to remove the clot.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07046546Recruiting
Thyroid nodule embolization pilot trial
This trial tests a minimally invasive procedure that blocks blood flow to large thyroid nodules, which can shrink them and relieve symptoms like trouble swallowing or cosmetic concerns. It's an option for people with benign nodules or Graves disease who want to avoid surgery or other treatments.
ReadingAges 18 years+ - NCT07143539Recruiting
Early exercise rehab after hospital stay for pulmonary embolism
This study tests if starting a supervised exercise program early after a hospital stay for a blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism) helps patients recover better and feel less breathless. It is for people at higher risk of ongoing symptoms after their clot.
AarauAges 18 years+ - NCT07166731Recruiting
Carotid stent vs. medication for recent stroke risk
This trial tests if a carotid artery stent plus medication is better than medication alone at preventing another stroke in people who recently had a stroke or eye blockage caused by a non-narrowing but risky carotid plaque.

Treating adenomyosis bleeding with heat or artery blocking
This study compares two treatments for heavy bleeding caused by adenomyosis: a procedure that uses heat to remove the inner lining of the uterus (endometrial ablation) and a procedure that blocks blood flow to the uterus (uterine artery embolization). If you have been diagnosed with adenomyosis and have tried medication without success, this trial may help decide which treatment is best for you.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for embolization?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 260 recruiting embolization 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 embolization 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 embolization 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.
