- NCT06938113Enrolling by invitation
Ureteroscopy with negative pressure sheath for kidney stones
This trial tests a procedure called ureteroscopy combined with a special sheath that uses negative pressure to remove kidney stones. It may help people with medium-sized stones get a more complete removal in a single treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06793540Recruiting
Self-posture therapy for leftover kidney stone pieces
This trial tests whether simple posture exercises you can do at home can help clear small leftover stone pieces from the lower part of your kidney after standard stone treatment. It could spare you from needing more procedures.
LyonAges 18–70 - NCT06783946Enrolling by invitation
Meditation for pain and anxiety after kidney stone surgery
This study is testing whether guided meditation can help reduce pain, discomfort, and anxiety after a kidney stone removal procedure called ureteroscopy. If you or your child is a teenager or adult scheduled for this surgery, meditation might be a calming tool to try before and after the procedure.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - NCT06667557Recruiting
Comparing Two Lasers for Kidney Stone Breaking
This trial compares two types of lasers used to break up kidney and ureter stones during a ureteroscopy procedure. The goal is to see which laser works better at breaking stones into smaller pieces.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06635889RecruitingPhase 2
Numbing medicine in bladder after kidney stone surgery
This study tests whether numbing medicine placed directly into the bladder can reduce pain after a ureteroscopy procedure for kidney stones. It may help you feel better and use less pain medication after surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06469736Recruiting
Comparing two methods for removing kidney stones
This study compares two ways to remove kidney stones: using a scope with a laser to break up stones, versus using the same scope plus a special gel to help remove the pieces. It aims to see if adding the gel makes the procedure more effective and safer.
Munich, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT04565795Recruiting
Temporary dissolvable ureter stent after uncomplicated ureteroscopy
This trial studies a temporary stent that is designed to dissolve in the ureter after a straightforward ureteroscopy to remove a kidney/ureter stone. The goal is to check safety and how well the device performs, and whether it can replace longer-lasting stents for some people.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 21–80 - NCT06158620RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Nasal spray for pain after ureter stent placement
This trial tests whether a nasal spray form of the painkiller ketorolac can safely reduce pain from a ureteral stent after stone surgery. If you are having a ureteroscopy with stent placement, this might help you manage discomfort without stronger medications.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05916963RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a water pill to reduce leftover kidney stone fragments
This Phase 3 study tests whether using a “water pill” called furosemide during a flexible scope procedure helps leave fewer kidney-stone fragments behind. It may help reduce the chance of needing additional treatment later.
AngersAges 18–80 - NCT05866081Recruiting
Testing whether to skip a stent after kidney stone procedures
This trial studies whether some people can avoid getting a ureteral stent after ureteroscopy and lithotripsy for a kidney stone. It may help reduce stent-related discomfort while still keeping outcomes safe for the stone problem.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05715086Recruiting
Personalized emergency care for painful ureter stones
This trial tests a patient-centered approach to managing painful kidney/ureter stones that are blocking urine flow. It may help you choose the safest next step—such as treatment with a scope or careful observation—based on your symptoms and situation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ureteroscopy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 35 recruiting ureteroscopy 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 ureteroscopy 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 ureteroscopy 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.
