Robot-Assisted scope could make colon tumor removal safer
NCT ID NCT07405203
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new robotic tool called the EndoR Surgical System for removing early-stage colorectal lesions. The goal is to see if it can make the procedure safer and more effective than current methods. Six adults aged 18 to 85 with superficial colorectal lesions will take part. The system aims to give surgeons better control and precision, which may reduce complications like bleeding or perforation.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Aged between 18 and 85. * Patient with superficial colorectal lesions, scheduled for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). According to the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) and the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society (JGES) guidelines for colorectal ESD: i. Lesions for which en bloc resection with snare EMR would be difficult to apply; ii. Mucosal tumors with submucosal fibrosis; iii. Sporadic tumors in conditions of chronic inflammation; iv. Local residual or recurrent early carcinomas after endoscopic resection. Exclusion Criteria: * No informed consent available. * Carcinoma of colon or rectum with invasion to submucosa or beyond. * Evidence of distant metastasis. * Another active malignancy present. * Pregnant. * Patients are unfit for general anesthesia. * The target lesion that could not be reached by the endoscopic platform. * Have been recruited in another clinical trial.
