Testing single-port robot surgery for colorectal conditions
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study checks how well a newer single-opening (single-port) robot works for colorectal surgery. It may help surgeons perform operations with the robotic system in carefully selected colorectal conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re 18 or older (male or female).
- You have a colorectal diagnosis that your care team plans to treat with a robotic operation.
- If you need a transanal procedure (through the anus), your rectal/anal tumor or growth must meet specific early-stage limits (for example, not beyond 15 cm from the anus) and be of certain types.
- You’re generally healthy enough for surgery and can follow the study plan, including coming for follow-up.
- You can understand the study and sign written consent.
- If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, you can’t join; if you can get pregnant, you must use reliable birth control (or confirm you can’t become pregnant) before and during the study.

This trial tests a new robotic surgery system for common operations on the colon, rectum, prostate, kidney, bladder, stomach, esophagus, gallbladder, and hiatal hernia. It may offer a less invasive option for patients who need surgery for these conditions.
This trial compares two types of robotic surgery (single-port vs. multi-port) for removing rectal cancer. It aims to see which method is safer and more effective while helping patients recover faster.
This trial tests a new robotic-assisted colonoscopy system (Triton 1.5) designed to improve how doctors perform screening or diagnostic colonoscopies. You would undergo a colonoscopy using this robotic device instead of a standard scope, and researchers would monitor how well it works and whether it's safe.
This trial compares two robotic surgery methods for rectal cancer: using one small incision (single-port) versus several small incisions (multi-port). The goal is to see which approach offers better outcomes while preserving the sphincter (the muscle that controls bowel movements).
This study tests whether remote robotic surgery is safe and effective for people having robot-assisted operations. It may help expand access to specialized surgical care.
This trial studies a new robotic colonoscopy system to see if it's safe and effective for routine colon cancer screening, surveillance, or diagnosis. It may offer an alternative to the standard procedure.
