BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT06070181Recruiting
Adding Emdogain to deep cleaning for gum disease
This trial tests whether adding a treatment called Emdogain to a standard deep cleaning helps heal gum pockets better than deep cleaning alone. Emdogain is a gel that helps gums and bone regrow, and it is applied during the cleaning.
Linköping, Region ÖstergötlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07671963Recruiting
Bone Graft Options for Gum Disease Surgery
This trial tests two bone-replacement materials (a synthetic bone substitute and a natural bone graft) placed during gum surgery to see which one better helps rebuild bone and gum support around teeth with deep pockets.
Cagliari, ItalyAges 18–80 - NCT07655505Recruiting
Robotic mitral valve repair with force feedback tools
This trial tests a new robotic tool that gives surgeons a sense of touch during mitral valve repair. If you have a severe leak in your mitral valve and are a good candidate for minimally invasive surgery, this study may offer a way to fix it using the da Vinci robot.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 22 years+ - NCT07646574Enrolling by invitation
Non-surgical treatment after immunotherapy for specific gastric cancer
This trial tests whether patients with advanced gastric cancer (a specific type called dMMR/MSI-H) can be treated without surgery after receiving immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this approach can control the cancer while avoiding the risks of surgery.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07653802Recruiting
Laser vs. surgery for crown lengthening
This study compares a new laser method for crown lengthening to the traditional surgical approach. Crown lengthening reshapes gum and bone to expose more tooth, often needed before placing a crown or for cosmetic reasons. The laser may be less invasive and allow faster healing.
Ajman, Ajman EmirateAges 20–70 - NCT05460793Recruiting
Surgery timing trial for brain bleeding after a stroke
This trial looks at whether starting brain surgery within 8 hours after a type of stroke called intracerebral hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain) can improve outcomes. It’s for adults with a certain amount and location of bleeding and without common causes like an aneurysm or malformation.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06457971Recruiting
Anovo robot for ventral hernia repair
This trial tests a new robotic system called Anovo for repairing ventral hernias. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for this type of surgery.
BonheidenAges 18 years+ - NCT07600580RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve blocks for thyroid surgery to reduce stress response
This study tests whether a special numbing technique (nerve block) given during thyroid removal surgery can reduce your body's stress response and help you recover better. Researchers will measure how well this approach works compared to standard care.
Zagreb, City of ZagrebAges 18 years+ - NCT07586384Recruiting
Single-Port vs Standard Laparoscopic Surgery for Stomach Cancer
This trial compares two minimally invasive surgical approaches for early-stage stomach cancer affecting the upper portion. Researchers want to see if a newer single-port technique (using one small incision) works as well as traditional laparoscopic surgery (using multiple small incisions) and may cause less pain or faster recovery.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT04151433Recruiting
Laser surgery for endometriosis cysts with fertility or pain
This trial studies a “conservative” laparoscopic CO2 laser surgery approach for endometriosis cysts, aiming to treat pain and/or infertility while preserving ovarian function. It may help people who have a suitable cyst size and do not need certain hormone treatments before and after surgery.
AntwerpAges 18–40 - NCT07576335RecruitingPhase 2
Prehabilitation and rehabilitation for prostate cancer surgery
This study tests a program that combines exercise, nutrition, and mental preparation before and after prostate removal surgery. The goal is to help you recover faster and keep better urinary and sexual function.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07569952Recruiting
Nerve Block to Improve Surgical Field in Pituitary Surgery
This trial tests whether blocking a specific nerve in the face (sphenopalatine ganglion) during pituitary tumor surgery improves the surgeon's view and reduces bleeding. Pituitary adenomas are non-cancerous tumors in the brain that are removed through the nose using a camera.
CairoAges 1.8 years–60 years - NCT06191159Recruiting
Comparing scar looks after different mastectomy incision methods
This trial compares three different ways surgeons make the incision (cut) during a mastectomy to see which one leads to the best-looking scar. You may be eligible if you are having a mastectomy without immediate reconstruction.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges Any age - NCT07560280Recruiting
Tinnitus from Jugular Vein Narrowing: Diagnosis and Surgery Study
This study evaluates whether neck vein narrowing causes a specific type of tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and tests surgical treatment. If you have persistent tinnitus and imaging shows a narrowed jugular vein, this trial may help determine if surgery could help.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07547202Recruiting
Gum Disease Treatment Effects on Saliva in Smokers and Non-Smokers
This study tests whether a non-surgical cleaning procedure for gum disease changes markers in your saliva differently depending on whether you smoke. Researchers want to understand how smoking affects how your mouth heals.
Baghdad, Baghdad GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07549880Recruiting
Ultrasound to detect infections after abdominal surgery
This study tests whether bedside ultrasound—a simple imaging tool used at your hospital bed—can help doctors spot surgical infections early after abdominal surgery. Catching infections sooner might help you recover faster and avoid serious complications.
Herlev, Capital RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07546825Recruiting
Minimally invasive versus open surgery for endometrial cancer staging
This trial compares two surgical approaches for treating endometrial cancer: traditional open surgery (laparotomy) versus minimally invasive keyhole surgery (laparoscopy). The goal is to determine which method is safer and more effective for removing the uterus, ovaries, and lymph nodes while staging the cancer.
