Standard surgery for right-sided colon cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is testing a standard way to do right-sided colon removal surgery using keyhole techniques. The goal is to make the surgery more consistent and improve recovery for people with early-stage colon cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 or older.
- You have colon cancer in the caecum, ascending colon, or hepatic flexure (the first part of your large intestine).

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 a more complete surgery (removing the right colon and surrounding tissue more thoroughly) versus the usual right-colon surgery. It aims to see if the more thorough approach improves outcomes for people with non-metastatic right colon cancer.
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 two surgical approaches—keyhole surgery versus open surgery—for right colon cancer. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for patients needing planned (elective) tumor removal.
This study compares two surgical approaches for removing the right side of the colon in certain women with colon cancer or a high-risk pre-cancer. It aims to see whether the less invasive transvaginal approach can be done safely and work as well as standard laparoscopic surgery.
This trial tests a treatment for people with right-sided colon cancer that has not spread. It aims to see if a specific surgery or approach can improve outcomes.
