Robot-assisted remote surgery trial for multiple cancer types
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a condition that needs surgery in urology, general surgery, gynecology, or thoracic surgery, such as kidney removal, stomach or colon cancer surgery, hysterectomy, or lung lobe removal.
- You agree to join the study and sign a consent form.
- You are willing to come back for follow-up visits and tests.
- You do not need emergency surgery, have no other current cancer, and no cancer spread to distant organs.
- You do not have bleeding problems or take blood thinners that cannot be stopped before surgery.

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 study tests whether remote robotic surgery is safe and effective for people having robot-assisted operations. It may help expand access to specialized surgical care.
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 trial studies whether robot-assisted surgery can be used safely and effectively for certain early-stage cervical cancers. It may help by using a precise surgical approach to remove the cancer while matching standard care for eligible patients.
This trial compares robotic and laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer patients who have already received chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It aims to see which approach leads to better outcomes after neoadjuvant (pre-surgery) treatment.
This trial studies a new surgical robot that uses only one small opening in the chest to remove a lung segment or lobe. It aims to see if the robot is safe and effective for patients who need this type of surgery.
