Robotic right-sided colon surgery for early to mid-stage cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at a newer, robot-assisted surgical approach to remove part of the right colon completely when colon cancer is suspected or confirmed. It may help by aiming for more complete tumor removal while tracking safety and outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old and can understand the study and sign consent
- Your colon cancer is in the right-side area (ascending colon, right flexure, or the first two-thirds of the transverse colon) seen on colonoscopy and CT
- Your scans suggest the cancer is stage I to III before surgery
- Your surgery is planned (elective), not an emergency situation
- You have not had major open abdominal surgery before
- Your risk factors fit the study limits (no signs of very advanced tumor on CT, and BMI is 35 or less)

This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery to remove the right side of your colon for cancer: one done with the help of a robot, and the other done with a laparoscope (a long, thin tube with a camera). The goal is to see if one method leads to better recovery or outcomes.
This trial tests a new robotic system that allows surgeons to perform laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery from a remote location. It may help people having certain cancer or other surgeries in the chest and belly area, and could make surgery less invasive.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for removing the right side of the colon when cancer is present. The goal is to see if one method leads to better recovery and long-term outcomes, which could help you and others in the future.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery for right-sided colon cancer: robotic-assisted and laparoscopic. The goal is to see which approach causes fewer technical errors during the operation. If you are scheduled for surgery, this study may help improve outcomes.
This trial compares the effectiveness of robotic surgery to traditional laparoscopic surgery for treating right colon cancer. It aims to see if robotic surgery leads to better outcomes and faster recovery.
This study compares the outcomes of two minimally invasive surgery techniques for right colon cancer: robotic surgery and laparoscopic surgery. It aims to see which approach has better short-term and long-term results, which can help patients and doctors choose the best treatment.
