Recruiting studies
- NCT07261995Recruiting
Shock wave vs. laser surgery for kidney stones
This trial compares two procedures to break up a single kidney stone. One uses sound waves from outside the body, the other uses a laser through a small scope. Both aim to help you pass the stone more easily.
Karachi, SindhAges 18–65 - NCT03811171Recruiting
Testing a new machine to break kidney stones from outside
This study tests a first-time, new outside machine (Break Wave) that uses sound waves to break kidney stones so they can pass more easily. You may be considered if your stone can be seen on CT and is in the right location and size for this type of treatment.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03873259Recruiting
Testing a new way to check kidney stones during surgery
This trial tests a method called burst wave lithotripsy (BWL) to help doctors assess and treat kidney stones during a planned ureteroscopy procedure. It may help surgeons confirm how well the stone is being broken while you are on the operating table.
Carmel, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07342361Recruiting
Using a scope through the kidney for large stones
This trial uses a special scope inserted through the kidney to break up and remove large, branching kidney stones (called staghorn stones). It may be a good option if you have this type of stone and your kidneys are working well.
CairoAges 18–70 - NCT07535281Recruiting
Kidney Stone Surgery Technique and Recovery Study
This study tests a technique during kidney stone removal surgery (RIRS) where the surgeon fully drains the kidney system at the end of the procedure. Researchers want to see if this approach improves how quickly patients recover and reduces complications.
Gandong-gu, Outside U.S./CanadaAges 20–80 - NCT07773090Recruiting
Stenting before mini-keyhole kidney stone surgery
This trial is looking at whether placing a small tube (stent) in the ureter before a type of keyhole surgery for kidney stones helps with outcomes like pain and success of the procedure. It aims to see if this pre-treatment makes the surgery easier, potentially reducing complications and improving stone removal.
CairoAges 18–70 - NCT07697677Recruiting
Mini versus standard surgery for complex kidney stones
This study compares two ways to surgically remove large or complex kidney stones. It tests whether a less invasive approach works as well as the standard surgery, with the goal of reducing recovery time and complications.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07360353Recruiting
Comparing different types of flexible ureteroscopes for kidney stones
This study compares different types of flexible ureteroscopes used to remove kidney stones. It looks at how well they work and their safety.
CairoAges 18–60 - NCT07643324Recruiting
Breathing support study during kidney stone removal surgery
This study compares two different breathing-machine settings during a minimally invasive kidney stone removal procedure to see which works better and causes fewer lung problems. You would be randomly assigned to one setting or the other during your surgery.
ÇorumAges 18 years+ - NCT07159503Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two procedures for 2-4cm kidney stones
This trial compares two methods to remove kidney stones that are 2-4 cm in size: one uses a thin tube through a small cut in your back (VISOR), and the other uses a larger cut (PCNL). The goal is to see which approach works better and has fewer side effects.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for renal calculi?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 10 recruiting renal calculi 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 renal calculi 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 renal calculi 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.
