Recruiting studies
- NCT07090928RecruitingPhase 4
Numbing medicine for less pain after knee scope surgery
This study tests whether giving bupivacaine (a numbing medicine) around the time of knee arthroscopy can reduce pain at the surgery sites and help you move your knee better after the operation.
Peshawar, KPKAges 18–70 - NCT07078201RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two pain meds in spinal anesthesia for leg surgery
This study compares two medicines (dexmedetomidine and fentanyl) added to a spinal numbing shot for people having planned leg or knee surgery. The goal is to see which one works better to keep your blood pressure stable, and to make the numbing last while keeping you comfortable.
Port SaidAges 20–60 - NCT07073209Recruiting
Nerve blocks for hip fracture pain relief
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks (one near the hip bone, one in the thigh) to see which provides better pain relief for people with a hip fracture. If you qualify, you would receive one of these blocks as part of your standard care.
Manhattan, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07056244Recruiting
Comparing two pain medicines for children’s hernia surgery
This study tests whether adding dexmedetomidine or dexamethasone to the standard numbing medicine (bupivacaine) provides better pain relief for children getting hernia surgery. The medicine is given through a shot in the lower back (caudal epidural block) to help keep your child comfortable during and after the operation.
SohagAges 2–6 - NCT07033104Recruiting
Adding calcitonin to numbing medicine for C-section pain relief
This study tests if adding a medication called calcitonin to the usual numbing medicine (bupivacaine) can provide better pain relief after a cesarean section. It is for women who are having a planned C-section under spinal anesthesia.
Tanta, Gharbia GovernorateAges Any age - NCT06989866Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Testing if numbing injections reduce pain pill use after nose surgery
This trial tests whether a numbing injection (regional anesthesia) during nose surgery can reduce the need for strong pain pills afterward. It's for people having their first nose surgery at specific military hospitals.
Portsmouth, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06878014RecruitingPhase 4
Morphine for pain relief after hip replacement surgery
This trial tests different doses of morphine given during spinal anesthesia to find the safest and most effective way to control pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a total hip replacement, you may be able to join.
Sosnowiec, Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18–75 - NCT06809998RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Steroid injection in non-surgical knee before knee replacement
This study tests whether a single steroid injection in the healthy knee (the one not being replaced) can reduce pain and improve recovery after total knee replacement. It may help people who have arthritis in both knees but are only having one replaced now.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05233462Recruiting
Compare two spinal anesthesia bupivacaine dose methods for C-sections
This trial looks at whether adjusting the dose of bupivacaine by height works better than using a standard dose for spinal anesthesia during planned C-sections. It may help improve safety and comfort by aiming for the right level of numbing effect.
CaenAges 18–45 - NCT06734975RecruitingPhase 2
Nerve block for better recovery after vocal cord surgery
This study tests if a nerve block can help reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery to remove a noncancerous growth on the vocal cords. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the nerve block or standard care.
Newark, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06714279RecruitingPhase 1
Pain relief methods for gallbladder surgery
This trial compares two ways to reduce pain after laparoscopic gallbladder removal: one uses a nerve block during surgery and the other uses local anesthetic inside the abdomen. The goal is to find which approach provides better pain relief.
DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT06639503RecruitingPhase 1
Nerve block for leg fracture surgery recovery
This trial tests if a nerve block given during surgery for a broken tibia (shin bone) can reduce pain after the operation. It may help you need fewer painkillers and recover more comfortably.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06574022RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two pain blocks for mastectomy recovery
This trial compares two types of pain blocks (PECS-II and pectoral blocks) to see which works better after mastectomy. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery for patients with breast cancer or high risk.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05996133RecruitingPhase 4
Neck Numbing Shot vs. Sham for Neck Surgery Pain
This trial tests whether a numbing injection (called a multifidus cervicis plane block) in the neck muscles helps reduce pain after back-of-the-neck fusion surgery. Half the participants will get the real block, the other half a sham (fake) block, to see if it really works.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 40–80 - NCT06452147Recruiting
Anesthesia types for preventing confusion after hip surgery in older adults
This study looks at different ways to give anesthesia during hip surgery to help older patients think and remember better afterward. It may help prevent confusion or memory problems that sometimes happen after surgery.
Dongyang, ZhejiangAges 65 years+ - NCT04979338RecruitingPhase 3
Opioid-sparing pain control for gender-affirming surgery
This Phase 3 study tests ways to manage pain during and after gender-affirming surgery while using less opioid medicine. It may help improve comfort after surgery and reduce opioid-related side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06353529RecruitingPhase 4
Pain management after pituitary tumor surgery
This study tests a nerve block (called sphenopalatine ganglion block) for pain relief after pituitary tumor surgery through the nose. It aims to see if this block helps manage pain and reduces the need for other pain medicines.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18–100 - NCT06349668RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing spinal morphine and IV lidocaine for robotic kidney surgery
This trial compares two ways to manage pain during robotic-assisted kidney or ureter surgery: a spinal injection of morphine or an intravenous infusion of lidocaine. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief and recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Bupivacaine?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 202 recruiting studies that include Bupivacaine, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Bupivacaine trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Bupivacaine an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Bupivacaine or a specific trial is right for you.
