Study of freezing treatment for children when doctors choose cryoablation
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial enrolls children whose doctors decide they need a freezing procedure called cryoablation. The study looks at how this treatment is used in infants and children, including situations where it may be difficult or not possible at some point.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a child (infant or child) who is being considered for cryoablation by your doctors
- Your care team has made a clinical decision that cryoablation is needed or worth trying
- It is okay if cryoablation was not technically or clinically possible at some earlier stage

This trial tests cryoablation (freezing the tumor with a needle) as a way to treat small, low-risk breast cancers without surgery. It is for women 50 or older whose cancers are hormone-receptor-positive and haven't spread to lymph nodes.
This study tests a freezing technique called cryoablation for people with small lung tumors (3 cm or less) who cannot have surgery or standard treatments. The procedure is done through a bronchoscope, a thin tube passed through the mouth into the lungs.
This study tests if freezing a very small early-stage breast tumor (cryoablation) can be as effective as surgery. It may be an option for people whose tumor is small enough and hasn't spread to lymph nodes or elsewhere.
This study looks at using a cold (cryoablation) treatment along with partial kidney surgery to treat certain kidney tumors. It may help shrink or control the tumor while preserving more healthy kidney tissue.
This trial tests a cold-based treatment (cryoablation) for certain brain tumors including gliomas, meningiomas, and metastases. It may be an option if you plan to have surgery and meet safety criteria.
This study tests a combination of freezing and heating (cryoablation and thermal ablation) to treat breast cancer in patients who cannot have surgery. It may help shrink or control tumors while avoiding general anesthesia.
