Robotic stomach surgery using a 5th arm
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new robotic technique for stomach cancer surgery using an extra robot arm. It may help you recover faster and with fewer complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 35
- You have a newly diagnosed stomach or junction tumor and are scheduled for stomach surgery
- You have not had previous abdominal surgery that would prevent a minimally invasive procedure
- You have no other serious illnesses, infections, or bleeding problems

This study checks whether a specific robotic operation (proximal gastrectomy using a double-flap technique) is safe and feasible for early stomach cancer located near the top of the stomach. It may help patients by testing a surgical approach designed to remove the cancer while managing reconstruction and recovery.
This trial is testing a newer, less invasive robotic surgery technique that uses just one small incision to remove stomach cancer. It may offer faster recovery and less pain compared to traditional surgery.
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 robotic surgery to remove stomach cancer. It aims to see which method is better for recovery and outcomes. If you have stomach cancer that can be removed with surgery, this study may help you.
This trial compares robotic-assisted surgery to standard laparoscopic surgery for locally advanced stomach cancer. It aims to see which approach offers better outcomes and recovery for patients.
This trial tests the safety of using a robot to remove small stomach tumors (GISTs) that are in hard-to-reach places. It aims to see if robotic surgery is a good option for you.
