TaichungAges Any age - NCT07416149Recruiting
PTeye vs. standard total thyroidectomy
This study compares a new device (PTeye) with the standard way of removing the entire thyroid gland (total thyroidectomy). It aims to see if the device helps protect the tiny glands that control calcium levels, so you may have fewer calcium problems after surgery.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07059507Recruiting

Can a travel neck pillow help after thyroid surgery?
This study tests if using a travel neck pillow after thyroid surgery improves neck comfort and movement. It may help you recover more easily if you are having your thyroid removed.
Kayseri, TalasAges 18 years+ - NCT06730321Recruiting
Assessing skills for robotic thyroid surgery
This trial is for people having robotic thyroid surgery (removing all or part of the thyroid with a robot). It aims to create a scoring system to measure how well surgeons perform the procedure. You may be eligible if you have a small thyroid cancer or a benign nodule and want the best cosmetic result.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT06383091Recruiting
Manual therapy for voice recovery after thyroid removal
This study tests if a special hands-on therapy (manual therapy) can help your voice and throat muscles recover better after total thyroidectomy. It may reduce voice problems that sometimes happen after surgery.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05604963Recruiting
Half or full thyroid surgery for low-risk thyroid cancer
This study looks at people with low-risk thyroid cancer who have already had (or are about to have) surgery, comparing half-thyroid removal versus full-thyroid removal. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective surgery for your cancer type and risk level.
Crewe, CheshireAges 16 years+ - NCT07864155Recruiting
Pain relief without opioids for thyroid surgery
This study compares two ways to manage pain during and after thyroid surgery: one uses opioid painkillers, the other uses non-opioid medicines. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids can still provide good pain control and fewer side effects.
MalatyaAges 18–65 - NCT07857356RecruitingPhase 4
Pain relief during breathing tube removal after thyroid surgery
This study compares two medicines given while the breathing tube is removed after thyroid surgery. It aims to reduce coughing and discomfort, making recovery more comfortable.
DenizliAges 18–65 - NCT05391945Recruiting
Thyroid surgery and sleep apnea in people with goiters
This trial studies whether planned thyroidectomy (thyroid surgery) changes obstructive sleep apnea (breathing pauses during sleep) in people who have a goiter. It may help doctors understand whether treating the thyroid affects nighttime breathing.
BrusselsAges 18–90 - NCT07789548RecruitingPhase 4
Lower dose neck block for thyroid surgery
This study compares two doses of a numbing medicine injected near the nerves in your neck before thyroid surgery. The goal is to see if a lower dose provides enough pain relief with fewer side effects, such as affecting your breathing.
AsyutAges 18–65 - NCT07779551Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief after thyroid surgery: comparing two numbing drugs
This study compares two medications, bupivacaine and ropivacaine, given as a neck block before thyroid surgery to see which provides better pain relief after the operation. It may help reduce post-surgery discomfort.
Sargodha, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–40 - NCT06610604Recruiting
Thyroid nodule treatment and quality of life study
This study looks at how thyroid nodules affect your daily life and feelings after treatment. It compares quality of life in people who had microwave ablation versus those who had thyroid surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07707401Recruiting
WeChat neck exercises for recovery after thyroid surgery

Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07631650RecruitingPhase 2
Bevonescein to help surgeons see nerves during thyroid surgery
This study tests a special dye called bevonescein that helps surgeons see nerves better during thyroid removal surgery. The goal is to protect your voice by preventing nerve damage during the procedure.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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+ - NCT07577570Recruiting
Calcium Treatment After Thyroid Surgery
This study tests whether calcium supplements help patients whose parathyroid glands aren't working properly after thyroid surgery. The parathyroid glands control calcium levels in your body, and they can be accidentally injured during thyroid removal.
Tallinn, OtherAges 18 years+ - NCT07582562Recruiting
Thyroid Surgery and Low Calcium Risk Factors
This study examines why some patients develop low calcium levels (hypoparathyroidism) after surgery to remove both sides of the thyroid gland. By understanding these risk factors, doctors hope to better predict and prevent this complication.

- How do I know if I qualify for a thyroidectomy 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 thyroidectomy 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.
