Robot-assisted kidney surgery for early-stage tumors without clamping
This study tests a robot-assisted surgery to remove part of the kidney for T1 tumors without clamping the main artery, which may help preserve kidney function. It may be an option for patients who are healthy enough for major surgery and have a small, early-stage kidney tumor.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06918626Recruiting
Comparing two bile duct stone removal approaches during gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two ways of checking for and removing stones from the main bile duct during gallbladder surgery. One method uses a special scope (SpyGlass) during the operation, and the other does an MRI first. The goal is to see which approach is better for people with gallstone-related inflammation of the gallbladder who might have stones in the bile duct.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT06918652Recruiting
Surgery or endoscopy for high-risk gallbladder inflammation
This trial compares two minimally invasive treatments for people with severe gallbladder inflammation caused by gallstones. It aims to see which approach better helps the immune system and reduces risks for those who are too sick for standard surgery.

3D laparoscopic groin hernia repair with special mesh fix
This study looks at a laparoscopic (keyhole) operation to repair a groin (inguinal) hernia using a 3D “visible” mesh, with or without an added fixation method. If you have a first-time hernia on one side and are planning a laparoscopic repair, this trial may be an option to discuss with your surgical team.
GhentAges 18–80 - NCT05169073Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for laparoscopic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 401 recruiting laparoscopic 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 laparoscopic 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 laparoscopic 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.
