- NCT05717803RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery choice for certain early lung cancers with glasslike nodules
This study compares a lung surgery approach (segmentectomy) for people with early, invasive lung cancer that shows “ground-glass” on scans. It aims to see if this less extensive surgery can treat the cancer effectively when the tumor is in a specific size and scan pattern range.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06496659Recruiting
Lung segmentectomy after chemo or immunotherapy
This study tests a type of lung surgery called segmentectomy for people whose lung cancer shrank after chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The goal is to see if removing just the tumor part is safe and effective.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–89 - NCT06634966RecruitingPhase 3
Lung cancer surgery study for specific nodule types
This trial is testing a lung-sparing surgery called segmentectomy for people with a certain type of lung cancer nodule. It aims to see if this surgery is a good option for those with solid-dominant nodules that are 2 to 3 cm in size and have not spread to lymph nodes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04937283Recruiting
Segmentectomy vs lobectomy for small lung cancer
This trial compares two lung-surgery options for small lung adenocarcinoma (≤ 2 cm): removing a lung segment versus removing an entire lobe. It aims to see which operation controls the cancer while preserving lung function.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 20–79 - NCT04944563Recruiting
Segmentectomy vs lobectomy for small middle-lung lung cancer
This trial compares two types of lung surgery for certain small lung cancers in the middle part of the lung: removing a segment (segmentectomy) versus removing a whole lobe (lobectomy). It aims to see which surgery works better while balancing cancer control and lung function.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05838053Recruiting
Segmentectomy versus lobectomy for small lung cancer
This trial compares two types of lung surgery—removing a small lung segment versus removing an entire lung lobe—for small lung adenocarcinoma (≤ 2 cm). It may help you choose the safest approach that still controls the cancer.
Yangpu, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 20–79 - NCT07564557Recruiting
Guided surgery for small deep lung cancers
This trial tests a new surgical technique to remove small, early-stage lung cancers that are located deep within the lung tissue. The goal is to remove only the affected area while preserving as much healthy lung as possible.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07660900Recruiting
Study of force feedback in robotic lung surgery
This study looks at how force feedback during robotic lung surgery might affect recovery. If you are having robotic lung surgery at Ohio State, you may be able to join.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07626489Recruiting
Numbing injection to reduce pain after lung surgery
This trial tests whether injecting a numbing medication (ropivacaine) mixed with a steroid (Diprospan) into the surgical area before chest surgery can reduce pain after the procedure. If it works, patients may need fewer pain pills and feel more comfortable during recovery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT06516198Recruiting
Ear acupressure before lung surgery
This study tests whether ear acupressure can help people get stronger before major lung surgery. You'll wear small seeds on your ears and do exercise prehabilitation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50 years+ - NCT07603921Recruiting
Local Pain Relief Injection During Lung Surgery
This study tests whether injecting a numbing medicine and anti-inflammatory steroid around the surgical area before lung surgery reduces pain after the procedure. If it works, it could help patients recover more comfortably after thoracoscopic lung surgery (minimally invasive lung surgery using small cameras).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07632664Recruiting
New treatment model for older lung cancer surgery patients
This study tests a new approach to help older adults (65+) with early-stage lung cancer who are candidates for surgery. The goal is to improve outcomes by using a special assessment to understand each patient's overall health before and after the operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT04644952Recruiting
Study of robotic lung segment surgery outcomes
This study looks at people who had a lung surgery called a segmentectomy with robotic assistance in the past. It aims to understand how these surgeries are done over time and what outcomes result for patients.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT05525923Recruiting
Personalized pain plan after chest surgery in adults
This trial tests a personalized (tailored) plan to manage pain after thoracic (chest) surgery. It may help improve comfort and recovery by matching pain treatment to your situation after surgery.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–99 - NCT06638645Recruiting
Hospital stay after keyhole lung surgery
This study looks at how long people stay in the hospital after keyhole surgery to remove a part of the lung. It aims to find out what affects recovery time.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT06671639Recruiting
Stanford program to speed up robotic surgery for children
This trial tests a faster, robotic-assisted surgery for children ages 6 to 21. It aims to see if completing part of the operation using a robot can be as safe and effective as traditional open surgery, possibly leading to quicker recovery and less pain.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 6–21 - NCT06737107Recruiting
Comparing lung segmentectomy methods for early lung cancer
This trial looks back at medical records to compare different ways of performing a segmentectomy (removing a small part of the lung) for early-stage lung cancer. It aims to see which approach might lead to better outcomes for patients like you.
Rozzano, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06958848Recruiting
Comparing two chest tube sizes after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery
This trial compares two sizes of chest tubes (16F and 24F) placed after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. The goal is to see which size leads to better recovery and less pain, while still draining fluid and air effectively.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07345247Recruiting
Radiation segmentectomy for liver tumors using resin microspheres
This trial tests a precise radiation treatment for liver tumors. It uses tiny radioactive beads called resin microspheres to target cancer in a specific liver segment, which may help patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer) or tumors that have spread to the liver from elsewhere.
AdanaAges 18 years+ - NCT02570815RecruitingPhase 1
Fluorescent-guided robotic lung surgery for early lung cancer
This early-stage trial tests a robotic lung surgery that uses a special dye with near-infrared light to help the surgeon remove only the tumor area. If you have a small, early lung cancer, this approach may help improve accuracy while limiting how much lung is removed.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07477158Recruiting
Comparing two lung cancer surgeries for recovery and quality of life
This study compares two types of lung cancer surgery—removing just the tumor section (segmentectomy) or the whole lobe (lobectomy)—done through small cuts (minimally invasive). The goal is to see which approach leads to better daily living and recovery for early-stage lung cancer patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for segmentectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 21 recruiting segmentectomy 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 segmentectomy 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 segmentectomy 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.
