Magnetic tool for removing early stomach or colon polyps
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial uses a special magnetic device to help doctors remove early-stage growths in the stomach or colon during a standard procedure called endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The magnet pulls the tissue into a better position, which may make the removal safer and more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a shallow (superficial) growth in your stomach or colon that your doctor plans to remove with a scope.
- You do not have a cardiac pacemaker or any other implanted metal device (like a stent or drug pump).
- You have no metal fragments in your eyes or body, and have never worked with metal fragments.
- You are willing to take part in the study.
- Your doctor thinks the procedure is safe for you.

This study tests new bipolar scissors that may make removing non-cancerous or early-stage colorectal growths during a colonoscopy safer and more effective. If you're scheduled for this procedure, the new scissors could improve your outcome.
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.
This trial tests a robotic-assisted endoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) to remove early-stage tumors from the stomach, colon, or rectum without major surgery. It aims to see if this new robotic method is safe and effective.
This trial tests a new robotic system to remove large, flat growths in the lower part of the rectum that are too big for standard removal. The goal is to remove the growth completely in one piece, which may help avoid more invasive surgery.
This study tests a new hand-held device that helps doctors remove abnormal tissue from the colon or stomach more safely during a procedure called ESD. The device gently pulls the tissue to make it easier to remove, and the study aims to see if it works well and is easy to use.
This trial tests a new technique called RDI mode, which may help doctors remove early-stage tumors from the esophagus, stomach, or colon more safely. If you have a small early tumor or polyp, this study could help determine if the new method works better and has fewer complications.
