Simplified robot vs. standard endoscopy for colon lesions
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares a newer, simpler robotic tool to the usual method for removing certain colon growths during endoscopy. Its goal is to see if the robotic approach is safer or more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a colon growth that needs to be removed with a special endoscopic procedure called ESD.
- Your growth is a flat type that's hard to remove all at once, or has certain patterns seen on special exam, or is in an area with scar tissue, ongoing inflammation, or has come back after a past removal.
- You are willing and able to give written permission to join the study.

This trial compares a robot-assisted technique to the usual method for removing abnormal growths (neoplasms) in the colon or rectum. It aims to see if the robot-assisted approach is safer and more effective, which could mean a better outcome for you.
This study tests a new way to perform ESD, a minimally invasive procedure to remove early-stage cancers or polyps from the digestive tract. The goal is to see if this new method is safer and more effective than the standard approach.
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.
This trial tests a new robotic system to remove large, flat growths in the rectum without traditional surgery. It may help people who have early-stage rectal tumors that are too big for standard removal methods.
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 study compares a new robot-assisted endoscope to the standard endoscope for removing small stomach tumors. It aims to see if the robot makes the procedure safer or more effective.
