Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07455032RecruitingPhase 1
Neoadjuvant therapy combo for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (CADI-05 and pembrolizumab) before surgery for people with a certain type of head and neck cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink the tumor before it is removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07460999Recruiting

CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06861244RecruitingPhase 2
ETMR brain tumor trial for children
This trial is for children with a rare brain tumor (ETMR) who have not had radiation. Depending on how much tumor is left after surgery and if it has spread, the study compares giving radiation early versus high-dose chemotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT07511725RecruitingPhase 2
Thiotepa spinal injection to prevent glioblastoma spread
This trial tests whether injecting a chemotherapy drug called thiotepa into the fluid around the brain and spine can prevent glioblastoma from spreading in patients whose tumor touches the fluid-filled spaces or who had a leak during surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07290764Enrolling by invitation
Surgery vs observation for liver cancer that responded to drug therapy
This trial looks at whether people with an initially untreatable liver cancer that has shrunk or disappeared after drug therapy should have surgery or just continue monitoring. It aims to see which approach helps people live longer.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06868095Enrolling by invitation
Sarcopenia’s impact on early-onset colorectal cancer
This study looks at how muscle loss (sarcopenia) affects people diagnosed with colorectal cancer before age 50. It uses CT or MRI scans taken at diagnosis to measure muscle mass and see how it relates to treatment and outcomes.
Ages 18–49 - NCT07757165RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery after drug treatment for advanced stomach cancer
This trial is for people with advanced stomach cancer that has shrunk after initial chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It compares whether adding surgery to continued medical treatment is better than staying on medical treatment alone, with the goal of improving outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05795244RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab for resected mismatch-repair deficient endometrial cancer
This trial studies nivolumab (an immune therapy that helps your body recognize cancer) after surgery for endometrial cancer that has mismatch-repair deficiency (MMR-d) or high microsatellite instability (MSI-H). It aims to lower the chance the cancer comes back by treating “leftover risk” after the tumor is removed.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - 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+ - NCT06856707Enrolling by invitation
MIRA surgical system registry study
This study tracks outcomes for people having surgery with the MIRA Surgical System, a robotic tool. Joining helps doctors learn how well the system works and if it is safe.
Lincoln, NebraskaAges Any age - NCT07414498Recruiting
Bacteria in gum surgery for implant and tooth infections
This study looks at the bacteria living in deep gum pockets around implants or teeth during different types of gum surgery. It may help determine which surgical approach is best for your kind of gum infection.
Münster, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–80 - NCT07550127Recruiting
Managing Dental Implant Infection: Surgery and Follow-up Care
This study tests how to treat peri-implantitis—an infection around dental implants—using surgery, then tracks how well your implants heal and stay healthy over time. The research may help improve treatment for people with failing implants.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07733167RecruitingPhase 3
Epinephrine injection during prostate surgery for large prostates
This study tests whether injecting a drug called epinephrine into the prostate during surgery can improve outcomes for men with large prostates. It aims to reduce bleeding and make the surgery safer and more effective.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 40 years+ - NCT07686211RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study on better surgical guidance for head and neck cancer re-resection
This study tests a new augmented reality tool to help surgeons remove leftover tumor tissue after the first surgery. It might make re-resection more precise and improve cancer clearance.
Nashville, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT07528066Recruiting
Surgery After Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study follows patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who receive combination chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. Researchers will track how well surgery works after this pre-surgical treatment and compare different surgical approaches.
Fuzhou, FujianAges Any age - NCT06121089Recruiting
Surgery for early-stage cecal cancer
This trial is testing different surgical approaches for people with cecal cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to find the best treatment option for patients whose tumors are at a stage where surgery can be curative.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06276530Recruiting
Lung surgery: large incision vs. robotic approach and breathing
This study compares how different types of lung surgery (a large incision vs. robotic-assisted small cuts) affect your posture and breathing. It aims to help doctors choose the best approach for recovery.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06731998Recruiting
Improving pain control after cancer surgery
This study compares different methods of managing pain after minimally invasive surgery for abdominal cancers. It aims to find which approach works best to reduce pain and improve recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for surgical resection?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 109 recruiting surgical resection 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 surgical resection 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 surgical resection 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.
