Unfortunately there is not. At some point in the future the language may support type inference for type arguments to types, for cases where one type argument can be inferred from another type argument. Currently that is not supported because there are some complex issues involving cyclical types that need to be resolved or side-stepped. In Go 1.23 I think it should be possible to simplify using these kinds of types with a type alias as in "type X[E] = C[E, *E]".
