Robot-assisted surgery for kidney tumors
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests a new robotic system for removing kidney tumors up to 7 cm. It aims to see if the technology helps surgeons perform partial nephrectomy (removing only the tumor) safely and effectively.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a kidney tumor that's 7 cm or smaller and you're scheduled for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.
- You are between 19 and 80 years old.
- You are willing to sign a consent form after learning about the study.
- You do not have a single (solitary) kidney or a horseshoe-shaped kidney.
- Your kidney function is good (eGFR 45 or higher).
- You are not taking part in another clinical study right now or within the last 4 weeks.

This study tests a new 3D imaging system (RUS NE) to help surgeons perform robot-assisted partial nephrectomy more safely and effectively. If you have a small to medium-sized kidney tumor and are already scheduled for this surgery, the researchers want to compare your outcomes to people who had the standard procedure.
This trial is testing whether robot-assisted surgery can be a safe and effective way to treat early-stage prostate or kidney cancer. If you are eligible, it could give you access to a less invasive surgical option.
This study tests a robot-assisted surgery to remove part of the kidney for T1 tumors without clamping the main artery, which may help preserve kidney function. It may be an option for patients who are healthy enough for major surgery and have a small, early-stage kidney tumor.
This trial compares different surgical methods for removing kidney tumors using a single-port robot. It aims to find the best approach for treating stage 1 kidney cancer.
This trial tests if a 3D kidney model made with artificial intelligence helps surgeons remove a kidney tumor (partial nephrectomy) more precisely. It may help preserve healthy kidney tissue while treating the cancer.
This study is testing a special technique in robot-assisted kidney surgery where the blood supply to the kidney is not clamped and the tumor is removed without sutures. It may reduce damage to healthy kidney tissue and speed recovery.
