Robot-Assisted vs. Video-Assisted Lobectomy for NSCLC (RAVAR)

Robot-Assisted Versus Video-Assisted Lobectomy for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (RAVAR): A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, Non-Inferiority Trial

Conditions

Summary

Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has been recommended by clinical guidelines as one of the preferred surgeries for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for many years. However, VATS has inherent drawbacks, so at the beginning of this century, robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) was first applied for lung resection. In recent years, RATS has developed rapidly, but there are still many unsolved scientific problems in the field of RATS. Thus, a multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted with stage I-II NSCLC patients as the study subject and 5-year DFS as the primary endpoint to compare the short-term and long-term outcomes of RATS and VATS in the treatment of early-stage NSCLC.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is comparing two minimally invasive surgical techniques for removing a lobe of the lung in patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): robot-assisted surgery and video-assisted surgery. Both approaches use small incisions, but robots offer more precise instrument movement. Researchers want to determine which method leads to better outcomes. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 80 years old - You have been clinically diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (adenocarcinoma, squamous cell, or other types) - Your tumor is early stage (up to 5 cm, with no large lymph node involvement) - Your overall health and organ function (blood pressure, lung capacity, liver, kidneys) are within acceptable ranges - You have not received chemotherapy, radiation, or targeted therapy before surgery **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have received cancer treatment before surgery - You have had another cancer previously - Your lung opacity appears as pure or mostly "ground-glass" on CT scan - You have small cell lung cancer - You have previously had open chest surgery on the same side - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You have severe lung scarring, heart disease, or a serious active infection Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
