Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07295275Recruiting
Fluorescence-guided surgery for liver cancer
This trial tests a new way to remove liver cancer during surgery. A special dye called ICG is injected into the artery leading to the liver, which makes the tumor glow under a special camera, helping the surgeon remove just the right area. This study checks if this technique is both safe and effective for people with a common type of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07280949Recruiting

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.
