New robot arm takes on cancer surgery – first safety check begins

NCT ID NCT07632638

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study will test a new robotic surgery platform called RonovoTM in 40 adults with cancer who need elective surgery. The robot helps surgeons perform minimally invasive procedures in digestive, thoracic, urology, and gynecology areas. Researchers will track complications, technical failures, and how well the surgery goes to see if the platform is safe and effective.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

RonovoTM Robotic Surgical Platform

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide safety data to support regulatory approval of a new robotic surgery tool for cancer operations in Latin America.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage registry with only 40 participants and no comparison group, so results may not apply broadly. Technical failures or complications could occur.
