- NCT05472987Recruiting
Robotic vs open surgery for a ventral hernia
This trial compares robotic surgery versus the standard open approach to repair a ventral hernia. It may help determine which method works best and is safer or easier for the right patients.
Greenville, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07226791RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a drug for ventral hernia repair surgery
This trial tests a study drug (AGN-151607-DP) in adults having open surgery to repair a ventral hernia in the middle of the belly. It looks at side effects and how the hernia responds to treatment.
Greenville, South CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT06874413Enrolling by invitation
Exercise program for frail older adults before hernia surgery
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program before hernia repair surgery helps frail older adults recover better. The program includes physical exercises and breathing muscle training.
Greenville, South CarolinaAges 65 years+ - NCT04718168Recruiting
Test of Gore ENFORM patch to reinforce certain hernia repairs
This study looks at whether the Gore ENFORM biomaterial patch helps reinforce the stitch line in specific ventral or hiatal hernia repairs. It will compare outcomes after surgery and follow patients for healing and safety.
Greenville, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06306976Enrolling by invitation
Shear-wave test before hernia surgery
This trial uses a special ultrasound (shear-wave elastography) to measure tissue stiffness before and after hernia repair. It aims to see if this test can predict complications and help choose the best surgical approach.

What taking part in a ventral hernia study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
