Robotic system for routine colon cancer screening
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new robotic device that helps doctors perform colonoscopies (exams of the large intestine) for routine screening or follow-up. The robot may make the procedure more comfortable and precise.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years old or older.
- Your doctor has recommended a colonoscopy for screening, monitoring, or diagnosis.
- You are willing to attend all required visits and follow the prep instructions.
- You do not have any conditions that would make a standard colonoscopy risky for you.
- You have never had a colonoscopy that failed (except due to insufficient bowel prep).
- You are not pregnant, and you have no active implants like pacemakers or defibrillators.

This study tests a robot-assisted colonoscopy system to screen for, monitor, or diagnose conditions in the lower intestine. It may be an option for adults who need a regular colonoscopy.
This trial tests whether a computer-aided detection (CAD) system helps doctors find more advanced polyps during screening colonoscopies, potentially reducing the risk of these polyps turning into cancer over three years. If you are undergoing a screening colonoscopy, this study may help improve early detection and prevention.
This study checks how well a newer single-opening (single-port) robot works for colorectal surgery. It may help surgeons perform operations with the robotic system in carefully selected colorectal conditions.
This trial compares the effectiveness of robotic surgery to traditional laparoscopic surgery for treating right colon cancer. It aims to see if robotic surgery leads to better outcomes and faster recovery.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery to remove the right side of your colon for cancer: one done with the help of a robot, and the other done with a laparoscope (a long, thin tube with a camera). The goal is to see if one method leads to better recovery or outcomes.
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.
