About this study

Prospective, single arm study to assess the safety and performance of robotically assisted ESD of superficial colorectal lesions, that otherwise cannot be optimally and radically removed by snare-based techniques

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 85;
  • Suspected intramucosal neoplasm of the colon or rectum, including adenocarcinoma and tubular, tubulovillous, or villous adenomas.

Exclusion criteria

  • Informed consent not available;
  • Carcinoma of colon or rectum with known involvement beyond the submucosa;
  • Evidence of distant spread of colon cancer;
  • Presence of another active malignancy;
  • Pregnancy;
  • Patients considered unfit for general anaesthesia;
  • The endoscopic platform cannot reach the target site;
  • Current participation in another clinical research study.

Treatment and study plan

EndoMASTER EASE Robotic system for ESD

Device

EndoMaster EASE System, is a robotic-assisted endoscopy system indicated for endoscopic visualization and therapeutic access to the adult gastrointestinal (GI) tract for endoscopic surgery

Primary outcomes

  1. Complete (R0) resection

    Time frame: 30 days

    rate of complete (R0) resection defined as en bloc, one-piece resection with histologically confirmed tumour-free lateral and vertical margins

Secondary outcomes

  1. Bleeding during or after the procedure

    Time frame: 30 days

    Bleeding as evidence by

    • Active bleeding during the robotic ESD procedure
    • Bleeding after ESD with clinical evidence of 1. Fresh hematemesis; 2. Passage of tarry stool with pulse > 100 or systolic blood pressure < 100; 3. Drop in hemoglobin level of > 4 g/dl
  2. Perforation

    Time frame: 30 days

    Perforation at the ESD site as assessed by endoscopy

  3. Adjunctive procedures to control bleeding

    Time frame: 1 day

    Use of coagrapser / clips

  4. All cause mortality

    Time frame: 30 days

    Mortality

  5. Infection

    Time frame: 30 days

    Clinical sepsis with changes in inflammatory markers as evidence by

    • clinical symptoms of fever, pulse > 100
    • radiological evidence of intraperitoneal collection
    • elevated WBC count of > 10.0
  6. Impairment of renal function

    Time frame: 30 days

    renal failure as evidence of derangement of renal function with elevated creatinin level > 100 mmol/l

  7. Serious Adverse Events

    Time frame: 30 days

    Serous Adverse Events at preocedure and through discharge

  8. Duration of procedure

    Time frame: 1 day

    OT time

  9. Operator assessment of device performance

    Time frame: 1 day

    Operator assessment

  10. Device deficiencies

    Time frame: 1 day

    Device malfunction and Use errors during the ESD procedure as evidence by

    • cessation of the function of the EndoMASTER EASE system
    • need to use of the immediate cessation button for the EndoMASTER EASE system
  11. Length of Hospital stay

    Time frame: 30 days

    Length of Hospital Stay

  12. Histology of resected specimen

    Time frame: 30 days

    En bloc resection rate / R0 rate / positive vertical margin / positive lateral margin

  13. Colonoscopy followup

    Time frame: 6 months, 18 months to 3 years

    Healing of operative site / presence of suspicious tissue for biopsy / presence of stricture

  14. Cancer status by cross-sectional imaging (MRI / CT)

    Time frame: 12 months and 3 years

    local recurrence / recurrence at different site in colon / metastatic disease and location

  15. Technical Success

    Time frame: 30 days

    en bloc, one-piece excision of the neoplasm irrespective of histopathology, in the absence of device-related SAE through 30 days
