About this study

Official title: Comparison of Peri-operative Outcomes of Laparoscopic or Robotic Partial Nephrectomy for Small Renal Mass: Transperitoneal vs Retroperitoneal Approach

Both laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) and robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) can be performed through transperitoneal (TP) or retroperitoneal (RP) approach. RP approach is less utilized than TP approach because of technical difficulties when using rigid laparoscopic instruments in the small space of retroperitoneum cavity. However, with advanced surgical skills and thoughtful patient selection, RP approach may be associated with shorter operative time (OT), less estimated blood loss (EBL), shorter length of hospital stay (LOS) compared with TP approach.

Therefore, the investigators performed randomized control trial to compare the outcomes of the two approaches (TP-LPN or RPN vs RP-LPN or RPN).

Read the detailed description

Partial nephrectomy is the standard treatment for small renal masses. The evolution of minimally invasive partial nephrectomy led to widespread utilization of laparoscopic (LPN) and robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN). Both LPN and RPN can be performed through transperitoneal (TP) or retroperitoneal (RP) approach. RP approach is less utilized than TP approach because of technical difficulties when using rigid laparoscopic instruments in the small space of retroperitoneum cavity. However, with advanced surgical skills and thoughtful patient selection, RP approach may be associated with shorter OT, less EBL, shorter LOS compared with TP approach.

Therefore, the investigators performed randomized control trial to compare the outcomes of the two approaches (TP-LPN or RPN vs RP-LPN or RPN).

The purpose of this study To compare the treatment outcomes of the transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approach during LPN or RPN in treatment of small renal masses.

Inclusion criteria During the study period, a small renal mass (less than 4cm, T1a stage) patients are going to underwent LPN or RPN.

Exclusion criteria

  1. Patients who underwent radical nephrectomy
  2. Patients with bilateral renal masses
  3. Patients with a solitary kidney
  4. Patients reject a written informed consent
  5. Pregnancy

The number of target subjects More than 106 patients who meet the inclusion criteria

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Operative time

    Operative time of partial nephrectomy

    Measured: Intraoperative

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Warm ischemic time (minutes)

    Vessel clamping time during partial nephrectomy

    Measured: Intraoperative

  2. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by Clavien-Dindo classification

    Measured: from date of surgery, to 1 year postoperatively

  3. Change of differential glomerular filtration rate (dGFR) measured by renal scan

    Measured: Preoperative dGFR and postoperative 1 year

  4. Overall disease-free survival time (month)

    Disease free means no local recurrence, no metastasis.

    Measured: from date of surgery, to 1 year postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laparoscopic or robotic partial nephrectomy in people with Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Seongil Seo, MD (82-10-9933-3556, siseo@skku.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Operative time (time frame: Intraoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jul 2016.
