Robot-assisted Thoracic Approach Versus Open Transthoracic Esophagectomy .

Clinical Trial Of Safety Of Robot-assisted Thoracic Approach Verus Open Transthoracic Esophagectomy in Esophageal Cancer.

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Mar 2023 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a randomized controlled trial designed to compare robot-assisted thoracic approach with open transthoracic esophagectomy (Ivor Lewis technique) as a surgical treatment for resectable esophageal cancer. If our hypothesis is proved correct, robot-assisted thoracic approach will result in a lower percentage of respiratory and overall postoperative complications, lower blood loss, shorter hospital stay, but with at least similar oncologic outcomes and better postoperative quality of life compared with the open transthoracic esophagectomy (current standard).

Other

  • Contraindication of transthoracic esophagectomy in two fields.

Who the study is looking for

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • Histologically proven adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma or carcinoma of the gastro-esophageal junction (GEJ) Siewert I or II.
  • Surgical resectable (T1-4a, N0-3, M0).
  • Childbearing potential women (period between menarche and menopause), pregnancy negative test is mandatory.
  • Written informed consent.
