Robot-assisted breast surgery for early-stage breast cancer
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study is testing a new, less invasive surgical approach using a single-port robot for removing breast cancer while preserving the breast or nipple. It aims to see if this method is safe and effective for women with early-stage breast cancer, potentially offering better cosmetic results and faster recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a woman between 18 and 80 years old.
- You must have a confirmed diagnosis of early-stage breast cancer (invasive or non-invasive).
- Your cancer must be at a stage that allows for either breast-conserving surgery or complete removal of the breast (mastectomy) with immediate reconstruction.
- If you are having breast-conserving surgery, the tumor must be no larger than 3 cm.
- You must be generally healthy, with adequate organ function (blood, liver, kidneys, clotting).

This study tests a new way to remove breast tissue using a single-port robot through a small incision, with immediate reconstruction of the breast. It may be an option for women with early-stage breast cancer who want to keep their breast shape after surgery.
This trial tests a single-port robotic procedure to remove breast tissue while preserving the nipple and areola, followed by immediate reconstruction with a breast implant. It may be an option for patients who want mastectomy with reconstruction instead of breast-conserving surgery.
This trial looks back at medical records to compare two types of breast-conserving surgery (robot-assisted vs. endoscopic) for women with early-stage breast cancer. It's for women who are good candidates for keeping their breast and who want a less invasive surgical option.
This study tests a robotic technique for nipple-sparing mastectomy (removing breast tissue but keeping the nipple) with immediate reconstruction. It may be a good option if you need a mastectomy and want to preserve your nipple, have no signs of cancer there, and have a smaller breast size.
This study looks at how women feel after having a nipple-sparing mastectomy (where the nipple is kept) and immediate breast reconstruction with an implant, using a robotic single-port technique. It aims to see if this approach improves well-being and patient satisfaction.
This trial looks at whether a robotic technique for nipple-sparing mastectomy is safe and practical to do. It may help your care team understand whether this approach works well for people who are candidates for nipple-sparing surgery.
