Study of antibodies after operating-room allergic reactions
This study looks at different kinds of allergy-related antibodies in people who had an allergic reaction during surgery. The goal is to better understand what immune signals are involved so future allergy prevention and care can improve.
Paris, ParisAges 18–70 - NCT07146659Recruiting
Hysteroscopy: operating room vs. outpatient
This trial compares operative hysteroscopy performed in the operating room versus an outpatient setting to treat uterine conditions. It helps determine which setting is more effective or convenient for patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for operating rooms?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 36 recruiting operating rooms 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 operating rooms 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 operating rooms 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.
