Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Single-POrt Robotic-assisted thoracic surgery versus single-port video-assisted Thoracic Surgery major pulmonary resection for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (SPORTS trial): a single-center, a single blinded, randomized controlled trial

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Investigators initially began single-port robotic thoracic surgery using the SP robotic system for simple procedures, such as thymectomy and mediastinal mass excision. As their expertise grew, they expanded to more complex procedures, including major pulmonary resection and esophagectomy. However, the long-term outcomes of SP robotic anatomical pulmonary resection using the SP robotic system have not yet been studied.

The aim of this study is to compare the short-term and long-term outcomes of SP robotic anatomical pulmonary resection using the SP robotic system with those of single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SP-VATS) anatomical pulmonary resection.

This trial is a single-center, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to either single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SP-VATS) or single-port robotic thoracic surgery.

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This trial is a single-center, single blinded, randomized controlled trial). Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either to single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SP-VATS) or single-port robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (SP-RATS).
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants
The principal investigator will explain the study at the time of consent for the surgery. Written consent will be obtained by the principal investigator or a sub-investigator. Once eligibility for surgery is confirmed, randomization will take place within 4 weeks prior to the surgery. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either SP-RATS or SP-VATS using a website software randomization system. While the surgeon will be informed of the group allocations, participants will remain unaware (maintaining a single-blind approach) until the completion of the follow-up period

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SP-RATS

SP-RATS Arm: 145 patients, single-port anatomical pulmonary resection will be performed using the SP robotic system. A 4-cm single incision will be made below the subcostal margin. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Single-port robotic-assisted thoracic surgery

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

All patients : 145 patients Single-port anatomical pulmonary resection(segmentectomy, lobectomy) with a complete mediastinal lymph node dissection will be performed using the SP robotic system.

A 4-cm single incision will be made below the subcostal margin. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.

SP-VATS

SP-VATS Arm: 145 patients, single-port anatomical pulmonary resection was performed using VATS. A 4-cm incision will be made at 5th intercostal space on the anterior or posterior axillary line. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

All patients : 145 patients Single-port anatomical pulmonary resection(segmentectomy, lobectomy) with a complete mediastinal lymph node dissection will be performed using the VATS.

A 4-cm single incision will be made at 5th intercostal space. A chest tube will be inserted in same incision.
