Shockwave treatment for a kidney stone: lying down two ways
This trial studies whether kidney-stone shockwave treatment works better when you lie on your back (supine) versus on your stomach (prone). It focuses on adults with a stone in the lower part of the urine tube (the distal ureter).
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT03811171Recruiting
Testing a new machine to break kidney stones from outside
This study tests a first-time, new outside machine (Break Wave) that uses sound waves to break kidney stones so they can pass more easily. You may be considered if your stone can be seen on CT and is in the right location and size for this type of treatment.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06519812Recruiting
Comparing two surgeries for large kidney stones
This trial compares two types of surgery for removing large, branching kidney stones called staghorn stones. It will help determine which method is safer and more effective.
DamiettaAges 18–65 - NCT04796792Recruiting
Ultrasound help to pass a kidney stone
This study tests whether using ultrasound guidance can help people pass a kidney stone more easily. It looks at people with certain-sized stones and checks safety by managing issues like infection risk and bleeding risk.
Carmel, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05712785Recruiting
Ureteroscopy test for stones in the ureter
This trial studies ureteroscopy, a procedure where a camera and tools are used through the urethra to reach and treat ureter stones. It may help people whose kidney/urine tract stones are causing symptoms and who can safely cooperate with treatment.
Handan, HebeiAges 18–85 - NCT05574517Recruiting
Tubeless kidney stone surgery without a ureter tube
This trial looks at a kidney-stone operation done through the back of the body (“percutaneous nephrolithotomy”) but without placing tubes after surgery. It may help patients with certain stone sizes by reducing the need for drainage equipment, but eligibility depends on stone type and your health.
Hengyang, HunanAges 18–80 - NCT07223580RecruitingPhase 4
Steroid use for pain after kidney stone surgery
This trial tests if giving a corticosteroid during ureteroscopy (a scope procedure to remove kidney or ureter stones) can reduce pain afterward. If you are having this surgery and are not already on steroids or strong pain medicines, this study may help manage your recovery.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06990672Enrolling by invitation
WeChat therapy to help kidney stone patients drink more water
This study tests if a WeChat-based digital program can help people who've had kidney stone surgery increase their daily fluid intake to prevent new stones. You might qualify if you drink less than 2.5 liters of fluid per day and use WeChat regularly.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07786844RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Norepinephrine irrigation fluid for kidney stone surgery
This study tests whether adding norepinephrine (a medicine that helps narrow blood vessels) to the fluid used during kidney stone surgery can reduce bleeding. It is for people with stones in the kidney or upper ureter who are having a specific minimally invasive surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07617922RecruitingPhase 2
Melatonin and solifenacin for ureteral stent discomfort
This study tests whether two medications—melatonin (a sleep aid) and solifenacin (a bladder-control medicine)—can reduce uncomfortable symptoms from a temporary plastic tube (ureteral stent) placed in your urinary system during kidney stone treatment. The goal is to find out if these drugs help you feel better while the stent is in place.
Banī Suwayf, BeniSuefAges 18–60 - NCT07655050Recruiting
Antibiotic wash during kidney stone surgery
This study tests whether washing the urinary tract with antibiotics during kidney stone surgery can help prevent infections. It's for people scheduled for a procedure called RIRS to remove kidney stones.
Çorum, ÇorumAges 18 years+ - NCT06942949Recruiting
Testing a new sound wave device for kidney stones
This study tests a new device that uses sound waves to break up kidney stones in the ureter. It may help people with a single stone of moderate size, as an alternative to surgery or standard shock wave treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for urinary calculi?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 12 recruiting urinary calculi 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 urinary calculi 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 urinary calculi 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.
