Robotic surgery for gastrointestinal and urologic conditions
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a condition that can be treated with minimally invasive surgery (using small incisions).
- Your body mass index (BMI) must be under 35.
- You must be willing to give informed consent to participate.
- You should not have an active infection, bleeding disorder, or another cancer that has spread.
- You should not need emergency surgery or be pregnant or mentally disabled.
- Your specific condition (like colon cancer, prostate cancer, or hernia) must match one of the procedure types listed.

This trial uses a robotic system to assist surgeons during chest and belly surgeries. It aims to see if the robot is safe and effective for procedures like hernia repair, gallbladder removal, or hysterectomy.
This trial tests a new robotic system that lets surgeons perform laparoscopic surgery from a distance. It's for people with certain cancers needing surgery on the kidney, prostate, stomach, colon, liver, spleen, uterus, or lung.
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.
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.
This trial uses a new robotic system to remove colorectal cancers or large polyps that can't be removed by endoscopy. It may help you have a less invasive surgery with faster recovery.
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.
