What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a software tool called RUS NE that creates a 3D model of a patient's kidney tumor and nearby blood vessels. Surgeons use it as a navigation guide during robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. The trial involves 204 adults with kidney tumors up to 7 cm, split into two groups: one using the tool and one without. The main goal is to see if the tool can reduce surgery time by at least 10%.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
RUS NE surgical navigation software (a 3D planning tool for surgeons)
What this could lead to
If successful, this tool could help surgeons perform kidney tumor removal faster and more precisely, potentially reducing complications and recovery time.
What could go wrong
This is a mid-sized trial testing a navigation aid, not a new treatment. The benefit is a modest time reduction, and the tool may not improve patient outcomes or work for all tumor types.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 204 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Apr 2025

Expected to finish

Apr 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Individuals who were diagnosed with renal tumor and undergo robot-assisted partial nephrectomy * The diameter of renal tumor is 7cm or below * Individuals aged between 19 and 80 * Individuals who, before participating in the clinical trial, undergo an interview in a separate place, understand sufficient explanation of the purpose and content of the trial, and voluntarily sign informed consent form Exclusion Criteria: * Individuals with solitary kidney or horseshoe kidney * Individuals undergo bilateral nephrectomy * Individuals undergo operation other than partial nephrecotmy * Individuals with a history of abdominal surgery and are expected to have severe intra-abdominal adhesion influencing the surgical outcomes * Individuals with severe chronic kidney disease (eGFR \< 45, calculated with EPI-CKI equation) * Individuals with American society of anesthesiologists physical status classification (ASA) IV-VI * Individuals with a history of psychosis, alcohol abuse or are expected not to adhere to the schedule of the clinical study * Individuals who were participated in other clinical study within 4 weeks of screening * Individuals who are thought to be inappropriate to participate to the clinical trial by the investigators
