Recruiting studies
- NCT05953766RecruitingPhase 2
Nerve block versus sham block after hysterectomy
This trial compares a targeted pain-relief injection near the lower back (a “nerve block”) to a sham (placebo-like) procedure during recovery from a total laparoscopic hysterectomy. It aims to see whether the real block reduces post-operative pain.

Nerve block for pain after fibroid surgery
This study tests whether a nerve block (QL block) can help with pain after surgery to remove uterine fibroids while keeping the uterus. It may be a good option if you are having a laparoscopic myomectomy and want to manage pain without strong opioids.
Beachwood, OhioAges 18–45 - NCT06024109Recruiting
Comparing two stitches for laparoscopic hysterectomy
This trial compares two types of stitches (SYMMCORA vs. V-Loc) used during laparoscopic hysterectomy to see which one works best. It is for women having planned keyhole removal of the uterus.
Frankfurt am Main, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06042998Recruiting
Robot vs. laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer after chemo
This trial compares robotic and laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer patients who have already received chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It aims to see which approach leads to better outcomes after neoadjuvant (pre-surgery) treatment.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06050057Recruiting
Surgery for adrenal disease: Standard vs. robotic-assisted approach
This study compares two types of minimally invasive surgery for removing an adrenal gland: laparoscopic (small incisions, using a camera) and robot-assisted (using a robotic arm). It aims to see which approach may be better for recovery and safety.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT06103136Recruiting
Maestro surgery registry for laparoscopic procedures
This trial is a registry that collects information from people having laparoscopic surgery. It helps doctors understand how the Maestro system works in real-world use.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–100 - NCT06113419Recruiting
Timing of gallbladder surgery after severe pancreatitis
This study looks at the best time to remove the gallbladder in people who have had a severe bout of pancreatitis caused by gallstones. It aims to see if removing the gallbladder earlier or later after recovery helps patients heal better.
Bogota, CundinamarcaAges 18 years+ - NCT06123117Recruiting
Nerve block vs local painkiller for gallbladder surgery recovery
This study compares two ways of giving pain relief after gallbladder removal surgery. It tests if a nerve block (STALL) works better than injecting numbing medicine directly into the surgery site. The goal is to find which method reduces pain and the need for painkillers.
Espoo, UusimaaAges 18 years+ - NCT06135571Recruiting
Lymph node patterns in left colon and rectal cancer
This study looks at how colon and rectal cancer on the left side spreads to nearby lymph nodes (No.253). It is for people who have had laparoscopic surgery and whose cancer is still only in the colon or rectum. The goal is to better understand these patterns to help guide future treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06250699Recruiting
Rapid recovery after urologic surgery
This trial tests a program to help patients recover faster after urologic surgery. It focuses on making sure you heal well and get back to your normal life quickly.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT06296732Recruiting
Keyhole surgery for childhood neuroblastoma
This study looks at using keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery to remove neuroblastoma tumors in children. It groups tumors by risk factors to see which children can safely have this less invasive surgery.
MoscowAges 1 day–18 years - NCT06300879Recruiting
New surgery technique for upper stomach or junction cancer
This study tests a new surgical technique for removing cancer in the upper stomach or where the stomach meets the esophagus. It aims to see if this technique is safe and effective for people with early-stage adenocarcinoma who haven't had other cancer treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06318559Recruiting
3D augmented reality vs. standard robot prostate surgery
This trial tests whether adding a 3D augmented-reality model to standard robot-assisted prostate surgery can help doctors remove the cancer while better preserving sexual function. It is for men whose MRI shows the cancer may have slightly spread outside the prostate.
Candiolo, TurinAges 40–99 - NCT06858761Recruiting
Robot-assisted weight loss surgery: cost and results study
This study looks at whether using a robot during weight loss surgery is worth the cost. It compares outcomes for people having their first bariatric surgery or a repeat surgery for complications.
BordeauxAges 18–70 - NCT06338865Recruiting
Lower pressure vs. standard pressure for laparoscopic gynecologic surgery
This trial compares using lower gas pressure during minimally invasive gynecologic surgery to the standard pressure. The goal is to see if lower pressure reduces pain and speeds recovery after surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06355076Recruiting
New Urethral Reconstruction in Robotic Prostate Removal
This trial tests a new way to rebuild the urethra during robot-assisted prostate removal surgery for prostate cancer. It may help people whose cancer hasn't spread too far or has been reduced enough for surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06389786Recruiting
Using a new PET scan to find cancer spread before prostate surgery
This trial tests a special PET/MRI scan that may help doctors see if prostate cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes before surgery. It could help guide treatment decisions for men with high-risk prostate cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 30–85 - NCT06413264Recruiting
Ultrasound-Guided Gas Insertion for Laparoscopic Surgery in Severe Obesity
This study tests if using ultrasound to guide the insertion of gas (pneumoperitoneum) during laparoscopic surgery helps people with severe obesity. It aims to make the procedure safer and more precise.
Bhubaneswar, OdishaAges 18–65 - NCT06415890Recruiting
4-7-8 breathing for shoulder pain after gallbladder surgery
This study tests whether a simple breathing technique (called 4-7-8 breathing) can help reduce shoulder pain and improve breathing after gallbladder removal surgery. It may be a good fit if you are having planned laparoscopic gallbladder surgery and staying overnight in the hospital.
HatayAges 18 years+ - NCT06434233RecruitingPhase 4
Opioid use after fallopian tube removal surgery
This study looks at how much opioid pain medicine people need after having their fallopian tubes removed through small incisions (laparoscopic or robotic salpingectomy). It aims to see if the usual pain medicine can be reduced to decrease opioid use.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06445179Recruiting
Robotic surgery for adenomyosis and endometriosis
This trial tests robotic-assisted surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy) and all endometriosis lesions in people with both adenomyosis and deep endometriosis. It's for those who haven't found relief from medical treatments and are ready for surgery.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06447545Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for laparoscopic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 432 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.
