Robotic Telesurgery for Prostate Conditions in Remote Areas
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study offers robotic surgery for prostate conditions to people who don't have access to it. It uses a remote connection to allow expert surgeons to perform the procedure, giving you the same advanced treatment as if you were in a big city hospital.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 90 years old.
- You need robotic surgery for prostate cancer (localized) or a non-cancerous prostate condition like BPH.
- Your diagnosis is confirmed by a doctor using exams, imaging, or biopsy.
- You do not currently have access to robotic surgery where you get care.
- You are willing to join the study and follow all appointments and instructions.
- You are not at high risk for surgery due to health problems like heart or lung disease.

This study tests a remote surgery program where doctors use technology to perform or assist robotic surgery from a distance. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for patients like you.
This study looks at a robotic prostate operation that aims to remove only the affected side while keeping the urethra (the tube for urination) to help preserve urinary function. It’s for people with low- to intermediate-risk, one-sided prostate cancer and no spread to lymph nodes, bones, or other organs.
This trial tests a new robotic system that allows surgeons to perform laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery from a remote location. It may help people having certain cancer or other surgeries in the chest and belly area, and could make surgery less invasive.
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.
This study collects health information from men who have had robotic surgery for prostate cancer. It aims to learn more about the outcomes of this surgery to help improve future care.
This study looks at using the Hugo™ robotic system to perform prostate removal surgery in an outpatient surgery center, which may mean a shorter stay and faster recovery for patients. The trial aims to see how safe and effective this approach is for men who need this surgery.
