Comparing ablation vs. surgery for adrenal tumors causing high blood pressure
This trial compares two treatments—ultrasound-guided ablation and laparoscopic adrenalectomy—for a type of adrenal tumor called aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) that causes high blood pressure and low potassium. The goal is to see which treatment works better for patients with a single, non-cancerous tumor.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06057597Recruiting
Comparing two types of gastric bypass surgery for weight loss
This trial compares a new version of gastric bypass (with a longer 150cm bypassed segment) to the standard Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to see which leads to better weight loss and health improvements. It is for people with severe obesity who are already scheduled for surgery and want to help find the best procedure.
ParisAges 18–65 - NCT06105515Recruiting
Keyhole and scope combo rescue for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests a combined laparoscopy and endoscopy procedure as a rescue treatment for advanced stomach cancer. It is for patients who have a tumor that hasn't spread to other parts but cannot have standard stomach removal surgery.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07607262Recruiting
Comparing two injection methods for pain relief after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests two ways of giving pain medicine during gallbladder removal surgery. One method uses standard local anesthetic injection, the other uses a special injection technique that may provide better pain relief.
Sancaktepe, IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT06122506Recruiting
Laparoscopic vs vaginal cerclage to prevent early birth
This trial compares two types of surgery (one done through small cuts in the belly, one done through the vagina) to place a stitch around the cervix and prevent preterm birth. It may be a good option if you and your doctor are unsure which approach is best for you.
Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT06161207RecruitingPhase 3
Laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer using 3D and dye
This trial tests a new way to remove stomach cancer using 3D-4K cameras and a special dye during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. It may help surgeons see the cancer better and remove it more precisely.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06182111Recruiting
Morphine during gallbladder removal
This study gives morphine during gallbladder removal surgery to see how it affects pain afterward. It may help you have less pain and recover more comfortably.
EsbjergAges 21 years+ - NCT06202105Recruiting
Laparoscopic vs open total gastrectomy for advanced stomach cancer
This trial compares two types of surgery for stomach cancer that has grown into deeper layers but has not spread to distant organs. The goal is to see if a keyhole (laparoscopic) approach is as safe and effective as traditional open surgery.
Bien Hoa, Dong NaiAges 18–80 - NCT06424080Recruiting
Laparoscopic vs. robotic partial nephrectomy for kidney tumors
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery—laparoscopic and robotic-assisted—to remove kidney tumors while saving as much healthy kidney tissue as possible. It aims to see which approach leads to better outcomes and recovery for patients with small, early-stage kidney cancers.

Timing of gallbladder removal after drainage for severe inflammation
This study looks at the best time to remove the gallbladder after a drainage procedure for severe gallbladder inflammation. It helps doctors decide when surgery is safest and most effective for you.

SohagAges Any age - NCT06488183Recruiting
Pain relief study for laparoscopic weight loss surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain after laparoscopic bariatric surgery: one method involves numbing medicine placed near the surgery site, and the other uses an ultrasound-guided injection near the back. It aims to find which option works better for recovery in people with moderate to severe obesity.
AlexandriaAges 20–50 - NCT06489795Recruiting

Ludwigsburg, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06515691Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after weight loss surgery
This study tests a nerve block (an injection near the nerves) to see if it helps reduce pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The block is called a modified thoracoabdominal nerve plane block, and it may lead to better pain control and recovery.
Istanbul, BagcilarAges 18–65 - NCT06532422Recruiting
Recovery after kidney cancer surgery done as day surgery

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.
