Recruiting studies
- NCT07448103Recruiting
Robot-assisted rehab for kids with brain injury
This trial uses a social robot and artificial intelligence to help children with acquired brain injury do rehabilitation exercises at the hospital or at home. The robot guides them through arm and hand activities to improve movement and recovery.
Madrid, MadridAges 7–16 - NCT06238713Recruiting
New vs. standard robotic prostate surgery for early cancer
This study compares two ways of doing robot‑assisted prostate removal surgery. It aims to see if a newer, less invasive method through a single small cut is as safe and effective as the standard method. If you have early‑stage prostate cancer and are eligible, you could help improve surgical recovery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04550728RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Robot training plus electrical stimulation after stroke
This trial tests a “hybrid” rehab program that combines robot-assisted walking practice with electrical stimulation to help movement after stroke. It may help people improve walking and leg function at home as they work with a caregiver.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT06059859Recruiting
Augmented reality during robot-assisted prostate removal
This study tests whether using augmented reality (a computer overlay) during robot-assisted surgery for prostate cancer can help the surgeon remove the cancer more precisely. It may be an option for people with low or intermediate risk prostate cancer who have good erectile function.
MilanAges 18–70 - NCT06425016Recruiting
Robot-assisted vs. traditional sleeve gastrectomy
This study compares two types of weight-loss surgery: one done with the help of a robot and the other done by hand (laparoscopic). Both are types of sleeve gastrectomy, where the stomach is reduced in size. If you qualify for sleeve gastrectomy, this trial may help doctors learn which method works better.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–70 - NCT06690658Recruiting
Home arm exercises with a robotic trainer
This trial tests whether a robotic trainer can help people do upper body exercises on their own. It may be a good fit if you can sit without back support and follow simple instructions.
Raanana, IsraelAges 18 years+ - NCT06715878Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for small kidney tumors without cutting blood supply
This study tests a new, gentle way to remove small kidney tumors using a robot. The goal is to avoid cutting off blood supply to the kidney and to leave healthy tissue behind. It may help you keep more kidney function while still treating the cancer.
ShanghaiAges 15–80 - NCT06855446Recruiting
Robot games for children with autism
This trial is testing whether playing interactive games with a social robot can help children with autism. The robot is designed to be friendly and engaging, which may help improve social skills.
MilanAges 1.5 years–6 years - NCT06876597Recruiting
Robotic arm therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests a robotic arm system that combines movement and thinking tasks to help people recover arm function after a first stroke. It is for people aged 40–80 who had a stroke within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have some arm weakness but not too severe.
FuzhouAges 40–80 - NCT06927284Recruiting
Thinking and robotic glove training for hand function after stroke
This trial tests if combining a soft robotic glove with thinking-based hand exercises helps stroke survivors regain hand movement better than exercises alone. If you had your first stroke 6 to 12 weeks ago and have some arm weakness, this study might be a fit.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07008898Recruiting
Timing of sling placement during prolapse surgery
This trial tests if placing a sling to treat stress urinary incontinence before or after fixing pelvic organ prolapse changes outcomes. It may help women who need both procedures.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07119203Recruiting
Robot vs standard keyhole gallbladder surgery for non-cancerous disease
This trial is comparing two types of keyhole surgery for removing the gallbladder: one done with a robot and the other with standard laparoscopic tools. The goal is to find out which technique leads to a better recovery and fewer complications for people with non-cancerous gallbladder problems like gallstones or polyps.
PortsmouthAges 18 years+ - NCT07205263Recruiting
AI-guided minimally invasive surgery for brain bleeding
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery guided by artificial intelligence to treat spontaneous brain bleeding. It aims to improve recovery by precisely removing the clot with less damage to healthy brain tissue.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07230535Recruiting
Robotic vs standard mastectomy with DIEP reconstruction study
This trial compares how patients feel after open or robotic mastectomy combined with immediate DIEP flap reconstruction. It aims to see which approach improves wellbeing and recovery for women having this surgery.
BeaumontAges 18 years+ - NCT07257107Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation plus robot training for stroke recovery
This trial tests if combining a gentle ear nerve stimulation device with robot-assisted arm training can improve arm function in people who had a stroke more than six months ago.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–70 - NCT07277166Recruiting
Robot-assisted walking training for chronic burn survivors
This study tests whether walking with a mobile robot (a device that helps move your legs) can improve your walking ability. It is for people who still have trouble walking more than 6 months after a serious burn on their legs.
SeoulAges 19–65 - NCT07310888Recruiting
Robotic stomach surgery using a 5th arm
This trial tests a new robotic technique for stomach cancer surgery using an extra robot arm. It may help you recover faster and with fewer complications.
Hong KongAges 18–75 - NCT07326280Recruiting
Cold ischemia robot-assisted partial nephrectomy trial
This trial studies a robot-assisted surgery to remove part of the kidney while keeping the kidney cool to protect it. It may help patients who need this type of kidney surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07335731Recruiting
Safety and effectiveness of a new robot for weight-loss surgery
This trial tests a new robot-assisted device for weight-loss surgery in people with obesity. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well for metabolic conditions.
BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT07404410Recruiting
Robot therapy for apathy in dementia
This study tests whether a friendly robot can help reduce apathy (loss of interest) in people with dementia. You and your caregiver will use the robot at home for several weeks.
Milan, ItalyAges 40 years+ - NCT07427043RecruitingPhase 3
Opioid-free pain plan for robotic prostate surgery
This trial tests a pain management strategy that avoids opioids during and after robotic prostate surgery. It aims to reduce opioid use and side effects while keeping you comfortable.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 45 years+ - NCT07467915Recruiting
Combined mirror therapy and soft robotic glove for hand recovery after stroke
This trial tests if using a soft robotic glove together with mirror therapy can help improve hand and arm movement in people recovering from a stroke. You would wear the glove on your affected hand while looking in a mirror at your unaffected hand, which may help retrain your brain.
Baghdad, BabylonAges 18–70 - NCT07491198Recruiting
Head-Down Position and Eye Pressure in Prostate Surgery
This study looks at how the steep head-down position (Trendelenburg) and gas inflation during robot-assisted prostate surgery affect the sheath around the optic nerve. It aims to understand eye pressure changes to improve safety.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for robotics?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 465 recruiting robotics 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 robotics 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 robotics 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.
