Recruiting studies
- NCT05689255Recruiting
Study gut bacteria and gut chemistry after gallbladder treatment
This study looks at how your gut bacteria and gut chemical products change after treatment for gallstones. It may help researchers understand what drives symptoms and recovery after surgery and/or endoscopic procedures.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 21–80 - NCT05618626Recruiting
Lifestyle program to prevent fatty liver and heart disease
This trial tests whether a structured lifestyle program—focused on healthy living and resistance exercise—can help prevent fatty liver disease and heart-related problems. It may be helpful if you have early or mild fatty liver changes or risk factors, even if you also have gallstones.
Molina, Maule RegionAges 45–60 - NCT06816615Recruiting
Treating gallstones and bile duct problems through the skin
This trial tests a new way to diagnose and treat gallstones or bile duct narrowing without surgery, using a needle through the skin (percutaneous treatment). It is for people whose condition could not be fixed with an endoscope.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT07119203Recruiting
Robot vs standard keyhole gallbladder surgery for non-cancerous disease
This trial is comparing two types of keyhole surgery for removing the gallbladder: one done with a robot and the other with standard laparoscopic tools. The goal is to find out which technique leads to a better recovery and fewer complications for people with non-cancerous gallbladder problems like gallstones or polyps.
PortsmouthAges 18 years+ - NCT05732480Recruiting
Studying how gut bacteria affect gallstone disease
This study looks at gut bacteria (your microbiome) in people with gallstones to better understand what’s going on in the body. It includes adults having gallbladder removal surgery, and it may help researchers find better ways to predict or treat gallstone disease.
Ashford, KentAges 18 years+ - NCT06192719Recruiting
Study of gallbladder cancer, dysplasia, and gallstones
This trial is studying people with gallbladder cancer, abnormal cell changes (dysplasia), or gallstones. It aims to learn more about these conditions, possibly before or after treatment, or before gallbladder removal surgery.
SaltaAges 18 years+ - NCT07307703Recruiting
TENS for pain and anxiety after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether TENS, a mild electrical therapy, can reduce pain and anxiety after gallbladder removal. If you are having planned gallbladder surgery and are in good health, you may be able to participate.
Niğde, AdanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07421011RecruitingPhase 1
Comparing two forms of a drug for healthy volunteers
This study tests two different versions of a drug called Trimedat to see if they work the same way in the body. It is for healthy volunteers to understand how the drug is absorbed and if it is safe.
Saint PetersburgAges 18–45 - NCT07453186Recruiting
Ultrasound scans before weight loss surgery
This trial tests if two types of ultrasound scans can help see the gallbladder and liver better in people scheduled for weight loss surgery. It may lead to safer procedures.
EsbjergAges 18 years+ - NCT06926374Recruiting
Robotic surgery for gastrointestinal and urologic conditions
This trial tests a new robotic surgery system for common operations on the colon, rectum, prostate, kidney, bladder, stomach, esophagus, gallbladder, and hiatal hernia. It may offer a less invasive option for patients who need surgery for these conditions.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gallstone disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 10 recruiting gallstone disease 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 gallstone disease 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 gallstone disease 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.
