Comparing partial vs. total omentectomy in gastric cancer surgery
This trial compares removing part or all of the fatty lining of the stomach (omentum) during minimally invasive surgery for a certain stage of gastric cancer. The goal is to see if removing less tissue is as safe and effective.
SeoulAges 20–85 - NCT06620562RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a weight loss pill after sleeve gastrectomy surgery
This study tests whether adding a medication (naltrexone/bupropion) to sleeve gastrectomy surgery can improve weight loss. It may be a good fit if you are eligible for a first-time sleeve gastrectomy and meet certain health criteria.
Québec, QuebecAges 18–65 - NCT06639490Recruiting
Robot-assisted stomach surgery navigation study
This trial tests a special navigation system to help surgeons perform robot-assisted stomach cancer surgery. It aims to make the surgery more precise and safe.
SeoulAges 20–90 - NCT06671639Recruiting
Stanford program to speed up robotic surgery for children
This trial tests a faster, robotic-assisted surgery for children ages 6 to 21. It aims to see if completing part of the operation using a robot can be as safe and effective as traditional open surgery, possibly leading to quicker recovery and less pain.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 6–21 - NCT06690112Recruiting
Early drain removal after stomach cancer surgery
This pilot study tests whether it is safe to remove the surgical drain early in patients with a specific amount of output after stomach cancer surgery. It may help reduce discomfort and hospital stay for patients whose drain output is moderate.
SeoulAges 18–79 - NCT06728878Recruiting
Lymph node spread after total stomach removal for stomach cancer
This study looks at where cancer spreads in the short stomach area after total stomach removal surgery. It aims to understand lymph node and tumor deposits better to help guide future treatment decisions.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT06728891Recruiting
Analyzing tumor deposits after stomach cancer surgery
This study looks at cancer cell deposits found in the area where the right and left stomach-supporting tissues meet, after surgery for stomach cancer. It may help doctors understand how cancer spreads and improve future treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT06736847Recruiting
Lymph node spread in stomach cancer surgery
This trial looks at how stomach cancer spreads to lymph nodes and other tissues behind the stomach during surgery. It may help doctors understand which patients need more extensive surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT06755554RecruitingPhase 3
Green dye to guide lymph node removal in stomach cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a special green dye (indocyanine green) injected during minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery helps doctors remove more lymph nodes, which may improve treatment. It is for people with stomach adenocarcinoma that has not spread to distant organs.
KyivAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06778954Recruiting
Pain control gel after stomach cancer surgery
This trial tests a gel (ropivacaine in a special polymer) applied during stomach cancer surgery to reduce pain after the operation. The goal is to help patients recover with less pain and fewer side effects from painkillers.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT06788548Recruiting
Fluorescence-Guided Surgery for Early Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a new technique that uses a special dye to highlight the first lymph nodes where stomach cancer might spread, allowing surgeons to remove only the necessary nodes during surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06789965Recruiting
Comparing two weight loss surgeries for severe obesity
This trial compares two different surgical techniques for people with severe obesity (BMI 40-50) to see which works better. It is for those who are good candidates for bariatric (weight loss) surgery.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18–60 - NCT06801496Recruiting
Stomach stent for weight regain after sleeve gastrectomy
This trial is testing a special stomach stent (called a gastric bypass stent) to help people who regained weight after a sleeve gastrectomy. If you've had a sleeve gastrectomy and your BMI is 27.5 or higher, this study might help you lose weight again without another surgery.
BeijingAges 16–65 - NCT06839716Recruiting
Comparing a numbing gel with standard pain block after stomach cancer surgery
This study tests a gel made of ropivacaine (a numbing medicine) in a special hydrogel to see if it works as well as the standard pain block injection (TAP block) for controlling pain after minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery. The gel is applied directly near the surgical wound.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT06841484Recruiting
Robotic tools vs. human-assisted tools in stomach cancer surgery
This study tests two ways of using robotic tools during stomach cancer surgery: one where the surgeon controls all instruments from a console, and another where a human assistant operates some tools. It aims to see which method works better for patients having the lower part of the stomach removed.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT06929949Recruiting
Best Reconnection Method After Upper Stomach Surgery
This study compares different ways of reconnecting the digestive tract after surgery to remove the upper part of the stomach. It aims to see which method leads to a better quality of life for people with early-stage stomach or esophageal junction cancer.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT06945718Recruiting
Green dye test for gastric cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a green dye called indocyanine green can help surgeons find and remove more lymph nodes during laparoscopic surgery for advanced stomach cancer. It may improve the chances of removing all cancer.

Predicting quality of life after weight-loss surgery
This study looks at whether certain traits before weight-loss surgery can predict how a person's quality of life will change afterward. It aims to find patterns that could help doctors and patients make better decisions about treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gastrectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 144 recruiting gastrectomy 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 gastrectomy 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 gastrectomy 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.
