About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Resection of Colorectal Lesions with ColubrisMX Endoluminal Surgical System (ELS for Its Initials in English), Prospective Clinical Study

This study is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, multi-center, feasibility study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the ColubrisMX ELS System in patients undergoing transanal endoluminal procedures, specifically colorectal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection.

Read the detailed description

Endoscopic resection of small polyps is performed routinely through conventional outpatient colonoscopy. Larger polyps or incipient tumors can be excised with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). These minimally invasive procedures have been shown to be viable alternatives to conventional surgical resections with less risk of complications, shorter hospital stay and lower costs.

Both flexible endoscopic and open/laparoscopic surgical approaches have procedural limitations that can have considerable impact on patient care. Traditional endoscopic tools have technical inadequacies that may inhibit the physician's ability to complete more complex tasks consistent with a surgical technique. Conversely, a traditional open or laparoscopic surgical approach involves increased risk of complications (such as surgical site infection), increased pain and blood loss, longer recovery, and surgical scars. The objective of this clinical study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the ColubrisMX Endoluminal Surgical (ELS) System, a new robotic technology designed to assist the physician with precision, flexibility, and control during endoluminal removal of colorectal lesions.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of success (%)

    Percentage of patients with no conversion during surgery and no major complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥ III complication rating) for 24 hours post-op.

    Measured: 24 hours post-op

  2. Rate of conversions (%)

    Percentage of patients with a change in treatment plan to a conventional open or laparoscopic procedure.

    Measured: Intraoperative

  3. Estimated blood loss (mL)

    Estimated amount of intraoperative blood loss (up to the point of needing transfusion).

    Measured: Intraoperative

  4. Operative time (min)

    Duration from transanal insertion of the robotic flexible overtube to final removal of the flexible overtube from the anal verge.

    Measured: Intraoperative

  5. Patients requiring transfusion (%)

    Percentage of patients requiring transfusion during surgery.

    Measured: Intraoperative

  6. Complication rate (%)

    Percentage of patients having Clavien-Dindo ≥ III intraoperatively or postoperatively at Days 7, 30, or 60.

    Measured: 60 Days

  7. Readmission rate (%)

    Percentage of patients with readmission that can be linked to colorectal submucosal dissection.

    Measured: 60 Days

  8. Major Adverse Events (MAE) during the first 60 days

    Freedom from procedural-related MAE, defined as a combined clinical endpoint of death or reoperation for failed surgical repair.

    Measured: 60 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ColubrisMX Endoluminal Surgical (ELS) System in people with Colorectal Neoplasms and Colorectal Polyp, run by ColubrisMX at 1 site in Brazil.

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 8 inclusion and 22 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2024. 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 Brazil. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of success (%) (time frame: 24 hours post-op). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Sep 2024.
