Robot-assisted scope removal for early stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new robot-assisted tool to remove early-stage stomach cancer or precancerous cells through a scope (endoscope) without open surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective at removing the abnormal tissue completely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 80 years old.
- You must have a diagnosis of high-grade changes or very early cancer in the inner layer of the stomach (confirmed by biopsy).
- The cancer must not have grown deep into the stomach wall or spread to lymph nodes.
- You must be healthy enough to safely undergo general anesthesia and surgery.
- You cannot have had previous stomach cancer treatments that changed the shape of your stomach.

This trial compares a robot-assisted technique to the usual method for removing abnormal growths (neoplasms) in the colon or rectum. It aims to see if the robot-assisted approach is safer and more effective, which could mean a better outcome for you.
This trial tests a new robotic system (Endorobotics) to remove early-stage stomach or colon tumors using an endoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera). The goal is to see if the robot helps doctors remove the entire tumor safely and effectively, especially when standard methods are challenging.
This study compares a new robot-assisted endoscope to the standard endoscope for removing small stomach tumors. It aims to see if the robot makes the procedure safer or more effective.
This trial compares a newer, simpler robotic tool to the usual method for removing certain colon growths during endoscopy. Its goal is to see if the robotic approach is safer or more effective.
This trial tests whether using a robotic arm to remove stomach cancer is safe and effective for patients who have already received chemotherapy or radiation. If you have stage III stomach cancer and are healthy enough for surgery, this approach may offer a more precise operation.
This trial compares two types of robot-assisted operations to remove part of the stomach for gastric cancer. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for achieving complete tumor removal.
