Lung cancer trial testing blood test and PET scan for spread
This trial studies if a blood test that looks for tumor DNA combined with a PET-CT scan can better predict if lung cancer has spread to lymph nodes. It may help guide treatment decisions for people with non-small cell lung cancer that hasn't been treated yet.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06897501Recruiting
Comparing breathing tubes for voice box protection during esophagectomy
This trial compares two types of breathing tubes used during robot-assisted esophageal cancer surgery. One tube blocks one lung (double-lumen tube) and the other tube uses a smaller blocker (bronchial blocker); researchers want to see which causes fewer voice box nerve injuries after surgery.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06978179Recruiting

Portsmouth, VirginiaAges 18–79 - NCT07070050RecruitingPhase 4
NSAIDs after laparoscopic surgery: continuous or bolus?
This study compares giving NSAID pain relievers continuously through an IV versus as single doses (bolus) after laparoscopic surgery to find which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
Moscow, Moscow OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT07074938Recruiting
Traditional Chinese medicine for brain injury recovery
This trial tests whether a traditional Chinese medicine called An Gong Niuhuang Wan can help people recover brain function after a traumatic brain injury and surgery. It may be a good fit if you are moderately affected (GCS 6–12) and your condition is stable enough to start treatment within three days.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–60 - NCT05526534Recruiting
Breathing treatment to prevent lung problems after gynecologic surgery
This trial studies whether a breathing support therapy given after surgery can reduce the chance of lung complications. It focuses on people having gynecologic tumor surgery who are at higher risk for breathing or lung problems.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–90 - NCT07063069Recruiting
Using ultrasound to prevent nausea after abdominal surgery
This study uses a quick ultrasound of your stomach to predict if you will feel sick or vomit after major abdominal surgery. It helps doctors give you the right medicine to prevent nausea.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07063888RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation after surgery for bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether combining chemotherapy with radiation after surgery can help prevent the return of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, a type of bile duct cancer. It is for people whose surgery showed a narrow margin or cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07057557Recruiting
Aloe vera vs paraffin dressing for skin graft pain
This trial compares aloe vera dressing with paraffin tulle dressing to see which one reduces pain better at the area where a skin graft was taken. If you need a skin graft and are not allergic to either dressing, this study may help find a gentler way to manage your pain.
