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+ - NCT06801444Recruiting
Comparing nerve monitoring in mouth-based thyroid surgery
This trial compares two nerve-monitoring techniques used during a scarless thyroid surgery performed through the mouth (called TOETVA). It is for people with benign thyroid nodules or early-stage thyroid cancer that has not spread to lymph nodes.
TaichungAges Any age - NCT07052279Recruiting
Water burpee exercises for women after thyroid surgery
This trial tests if water-based burpee exercises can improve physical function in post-menopausal women who had their thyroid removed. It may help you move better and feel stronger.
CairoAges 50–54 - NCT07733375Recruiting
Smart wristband study for thyroid hormone therapy after surgery
This trial tests whether a smart wristband can help monitor thyroid hormone replacement after total thyroidectomy. It may make follow-up easier and more convenient for patients.
Istanbul, KadıköyAges 18 years+ - NCT06592755Recruiting
New scar-free thyroid surgery vs. standard surgery for thyroid cancer
This trial compares a new, scar-free surgery (done through a small cut near the collarbone) to the standard open surgery for people with a common type of thyroid cancer. It may be a good option if your cancer is small and hasn't spread.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - 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 - NCT06963203Recruiting
Surgery for hyperthyroidism from Graves' or amiodarone use
This study looks at thyroid removal surgery for hyperthyroidism caused by Graves' disease or the heart medication amiodarone. It aims to see how well the surgery works for these patients.
AalstAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06909513Enrolling by invitation
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+ - NCT07779551Enrolling by invitation
Comparison of Two Drugs Bupivacaine and Ropivacaine for Postoperative Analgesia in Bilateral Superficial Cervical Plexus Block After Thyroidectomy
Sargodha, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–40 - NCT07428057Recruiting
Low Calcium After Thyroid Surgery Study
This study looks at why some people develop low calcium levels after thyroid surgery. It aims to understand risk factors by reviewing medical records of patients who had their thyroid removed at Minia University Hospital.
Minya, Minya GovernorateAges 18–75 - NCT06738888Recruiting
Better predicting easy thyroid removal through mouth or under chin
This study compares two approaches for thyroid removal surgery—one through the mouth and one under the chin—to find which is easier to perform. It is for people with thyroid nodules or early thyroid cancer that hasn't spread.
ShanghaiAges Any age - NCT07037264Enrolling by invitation
Laser treatment for thyroid surgery scars
This study tests if a special laser can improve scars from thyroid surgery. It is for people with fresh or older scars in the middle of the neck.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT03249012Recruiting
Quality of life after thyroid surgery for low calcium
This study looks at how different treatment plans affect quality of life in people who develop low calcium after thyroid surgery. You may be asked to complete questionnaires to compare how you feel with each treatment approach.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07068048Enrolling by invitation
Steroid wash during thyroid surgery to protect voice nerves
This trial tests if rinsing the surgical area with a steroid drug (dexamethasone) during thyroid surgery can help prevent damage to the nerve that controls your vocal cords. It may lower the risk of voice changes after surgery.
Petaling Jaya, SelangorAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT05869058Recruiting
Imaging test to check blood flow in parathyroid tissue
This trial evaluates a new imaging method during endoscopic thyroid surgery to detect and assess blood flow to nearby parathyroid tissue. Better detection of blood flow may help reduce the risk of parathyroid-related hormone problems after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06671184Recruiting
Predicting difficult thyroid surgery for less scarring
This trial looks at a tool doctors can use to predict if a certain type of thyroid surgery (through the mouth or under the chin) will be challenging. It helps people who want less visible scarring after their thyroid cancer surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07445659Recruiting
Brain-guided anesthesia for thyroid surgery
This study is testing a new type of brain-activity monitoring during thyroid surgery. It uses special stickers on your head to help guide the anesthesia, which may lead to a smoother recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for thyroidectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 44 recruiting thyroidectomy 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 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.
