Recruiting studies
- NCT02518542Recruiting
POEM and stretching treatment for achalasia
This trial looks at a procedure called POEM, followed by prolonged stretching, to treat swallowing problems caused by specific esophagus muscle disorders. If you have the right diagnosis and can safely have an endoscopy, this may help improve how well food moves through your esophagus.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05884658Recruiting
Natural-orifice vaginal hysterectomy vs laparoscopic hysterectomy
This trial compares two surgical approaches to remove a large, non-cancerous uterus (hysterectomy): a vaginal “through natural opening” endoscopic method versus the usual laparoscopic approach. It aims to see how these options compare for safety and recovery when the uterus is too large for simpler surgery.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT06843616Recruiting
Study of a disposable brain clot removal scope for bleeding stroke
This study tests a new disposable tube with a camera (endoscope) that doctors use to remove a blood clot from the brain after a bleeding stroke. It is designed for people who are stable enough for surgery and whose bleed is in a part of the brain that is reachable with this tool.
Guiyang, GuizhouAges 18–80 - NCT06870903Recruiting
Comparing two lymph node removal methods in vaginal surgery for early endometrial cancer
This trial compares two ways of removing lymph nodes during a vaginal minimally invasive surgery for early-stage endometrial cancer. It aims to find which method is safer and more effective.
Diyarbakır, BaglarAges 18–85 - NCT06757296Recruiting
Endoscopic revision of sleeve gastrectomy for reflux or poor weight loss
This study tests a new, less invasive way to convert a sleeve gastrectomy into a different type of weight-loss surgery (SASI) in people who have ongoing gastroesophageal reflux or haven't lost enough weight. The goal is to see if this endoscopic procedure can improve reflux and help with weight loss without the need for a traditional surgery.
SingaporeAges 21–65 - NCT06163313Recruiting
Kidney stone and tumor treatment study
This study looks at new ways to treat kidney stones and tumors in the upper urinary tract. It may help find better treatment options for these conditions.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07392580RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo injection before surgery for recurrent throat cancer
This trial tests injecting a chemotherapy drug (cisplatin with epinephrine) directly into throat tumors, given once a week for 3 weeks before planned surgery. It is for people whose throat cancer has come back after radiation and who need surgery to remove it.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06235203RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatment timing in recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares giving chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant) versus after surgery (adjuvant) for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned locally. It aims to find which approach works better to control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04886791Recruiting
Compare two ways to remove the uterus through the vagina
This study compares a newer “vaginal NOTES” approach with the standard way of removing the uterus through the vagina. It may help find which method is safer or easier for people who need a hysterectomy for non-cancer (benign) reasons.
Eindhoven, North BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT06649357Recruiting
Comparing two surgeries for enlarged prostate: electric vs. laser
This study compares two common surgeries for an enlarged prostate: a traditional electric loop resection and a laser enucleation (Moses HoLEP). The goal is to see if one offers better symptom relief and fewer side effects.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges Any age - NCT06565741Recruiting
Laser Comparison for Enlarged Prostate Surgery
This study compares two advanced laser techniques (Moses 2.0 and Thulium fiber laser) for treating enlarged prostates (BPH) that are causing significant urinary problems. The goal is to see if one laser is more effective at removing prostate tissue and improving symptoms with fewer side effects.
Barcelona, BARCELONAAges 40–90 - NCT05943119RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation planning after sinus surgery using dose painting
This trial tests a specialized way of planning radiation (“dose painting”) for people with cancer of the sinuses after they’ve had endoscopic surgery. It may help deliver the right radiation dose to different tumor areas while sparing nearby normal tissues.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT07289737Recruiting
Comparing two spine surgeries for a slipped backbone
This study compares two types of spine surgery for a common condition where a lower back bone slips forward. It aims to see which surgery works better to relieve pain and improve function.
Yiwu, ZhejiangAges 50–90 - NCT06688760Recruiting
Surgery vs surgery plus lower-dose radiation for early nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares two treatments for newly diagnosed Stage I nasopharyngeal cancer: surgery alone versus surgery followed by a lower dose of radiation. The goal is to see if adding a gentler radiation dose can prevent the cancer from coming back without too many side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07812389Recruiting
Opioid-free anesthesia for sinus surgery
This trial tests whether avoiding opioid painkillers during and after sinus surgery helps patients recover faster and with fewer side effects, using a standard recovery plan called ERAS.
Ankara, ÇANKAYAAges 18–65 - NCT07579117Recruiting
Video-Assisted Breast Surgery With Nipple Preservation
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgical technique that removes breast tissue while preserving the nipple and immediately reconstructing the breast. It may be suitable if you have early-stage breast cancer or are at high genetic risk and need preventive breast removal.
MilanAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05950022Recruiting
Endoscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon during hip replacement pain
This study looks at whether an endoscopic “cut/release” of the iliopsoas tendon can improve hip symptoms caused by rubbing against a hip prosthesis. It is meant for adults whose first non-surgical treatments did not help.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT04494048Recruiting
Registry for people considering endoscopic weight-loss procedures
This study keeps a record of people who are planning or recently had an endoscopic (camera-based) weight-loss procedure. The goal is to learn how these procedures work in real life and help doctors improve care.
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT03014687RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing sinus symptoms after pituitary surgery with antibiotics
This trial studies whether taking antibiotic medicine by mouth after endoscopic pituitary surgery can reduce post-surgery sinus and nasal symptoms. It may help people recover more comfortably and improve specific nasal outcome scores.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–84 - NCT05734300Recruiting
Surgery study for older adults with early colon cancer
This study looks at how well a planned surgery approach works for people age 75 and older with early-stage colon cancer. It may help improve outcomes by selecting the right patients for a specific colon operation plan.
Copenhagen, HerlevAges 65 years+ - NCT06057350Recruiting
Surgery versus endoscopy for early colon cancer with uncertain margins
This trial compares surgery versus an endoscopic procedure for people who had a colon polyp removed but some cancer cells may still be present at the edges. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes and fewer side effects for early-stage colon cancer.
Oslo, AkershusAges 40 years+ - NCT06365112RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Endoscopic surgery for hip socket fractures

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for endoscopic surgery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 85 recruiting endoscopic surgery 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 endoscopic surgery 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 endoscopic surgery 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.
