Robotic breast-conserving surgery through the armpit for early-stage breast cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new robotic technique for removing early-stage breast cancer through the armpit, leaving no scar on the chest. It may be an option for women who want to keep their breast shape and avoid visible scarring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You have early-stage breast cancer (Stage I).
- You strongly prefer no scar on your chest.
- You have not had previous chest surgery or radiation.
- Your tumor is not too extensive and can be removed with clear margins, preserving a good breast appearance.

This study tests a new way to remove breast tissue using a single-port robot through a small incision, with immediate reconstruction of the breast. It may be an option for women with early-stage breast cancer who want to keep their breast shape after surgery.
This study is testing a new, less invasive surgical approach using a single-port robot for removing breast cancer while preserving the breast or nipple. It aims to see if this method is safe and effective for women with early-stage breast cancer, potentially offering better cosmetic results and faster recovery.
This trial tests a robotic-assisted surgery technique for women who need a mastectomy but can keep their skin and nipple. It aims to improve outcomes for breast cancer patients and those at high risk.
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.
This trial tests a single-port robotic procedure to remove breast tissue while preserving the nipple and areola, followed by immediate reconstruction with a breast implant. It may be an option for patients who want mastectomy with reconstruction instead of breast-conserving surgery.
This trial tests whether older patients with a common type of early breast cancer can safely have less armpit surgery. It aims to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
