AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT06803719Recruiting
Chinese adults' views on robotic and remote surgery
This study surveys Chinese adults to understand their thoughts on robotic surgery, telesurgery, and telemedicine. The results may help improve how these technologies are introduced and explained to patients.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06784037Enrolling by invitation
Best lung pressure during robotic lung surgery
This trial tests the best setting for air pressure in the lungs during robotic lung surgery without capnothorax. It aims to improve breathing and recovery after surgery.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07541521Recruiting
Robot-Assisted Lung Surgery After Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy before robot-assisted lung surgery improves outcomes for patients with stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor before surgery and then remove it completely using minimally invasive robotic techniques.
Fuzhou, FujianAges Any age - NCT07359755Recruiting
Vaginal vs. robotic mesh surgery for apical prolapse
This study compares two ways to fix a type of pelvic organ prolapse (when organs drop into the vagina): using mesh through vaginal surgery versus using mesh through robotic-assisted abdominal surgery. The goal is to see if the robotic method works as well as the vaginal method.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07321145Recruiting
Robot vs. Endoscopic Breast-Conserving Surgery
This trial looks back at medical records to compare two types of breast-conserving surgery (robot-assisted vs. endoscopic) for women with early-stage breast cancer. It's for women who are good candidates for keeping their breast and who want a less invasive surgical option.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06466902Recruiting
Using photos to check lymph node removal in stomach cancer surgery
This study tests if taking photos during minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery can help doctors check that all the right lymph nodes were removed. If you're having a laparoscopic or robotic gastrectomy for stomach cancer, this study might be for you.
Cremona, CRAges 18 years+ - NCT05862792Recruiting
Liposomal bupivacaine during robotic throat surgery
This study gives a pain-relief medicine (bupivacaine in a slow-release form) during transoral robotic throat surgery. It aims to see if it improves comfort and pain control around the time of surgery.
Danville, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07421752Recruiting
Robot accuracy test in spinal surgery
This trial tests how accurately a robotic system helps place screws in the spine during surgery. It may benefit people who need spinal surgery that involves inserting pedicle screws.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for robotic surgery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 122 recruiting robotic surgery 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 robotic surgery 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 robotic surgery 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.
