Comparison of Outcomes of Multiple Platforms for Assisted Robotic - Prostate

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Registration Number
NCT05766163
Lead Sponsor
Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Integrata Verona
Brief Summary

The object of this exploratory clinical trial is to evaluate post-operative complications in a population that underwent Robotic Assisted Radical Prostatectomy (RARP) made with multiple platforms:

* DaVinci;

* Hugo;

* Versius.

The questions it aims to answer are:

* Does the estimation of the post-operative complications suggest something?

* Are differences (intra-operative, post-operative, oncological, functional, technical, and economic) among the three intervention approaches observable?

Participants will be invited to fill out questionnaires and join one of these three groups:

1. surgery with the daVinci platform;

2. surgery with the Hugo platform;

3. surgery with the Versius platform.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants with postoperative complicationsOver the 4 days post surgery

Overall postoperative complications (% score \>0) are considered by Clavien-Dindo Classification 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V): the higher the grade, the higher the severity of the complication

Number of participants with moderate to major postoperative complicationsOver the 4 days post surgery

Moderate to major complications (% score \>=2) are considered by Clavien-Dindo Classification 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V): the higher the grade, the higher the severity of the complication

Number of participants with major postoperative complicationsOver the 4 days post surgery

Major complications (% score \>=3) are considered by Clavien-Dindo Classification 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V): the higher the grade, the higher the severity of the complication

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall duration of the surgeryIntraoperative

Minutes

Number and type of intraoperative complicationsIntraoperative

Note

Positive Surgical MarginUp to 2 weeks postoperative (during histological analysis)

Rate at histological examination

Lymph nodes resectionIntraoperative

Number of lymph nodes removed

Urinary, sexual, and intestinal function assessmentPreoperative and follow-up (1, 3 and 6 months)

University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Prostate Cancer Index (PCI) questionnaire

Domains:

* Urinary function (5 items)

* Urinary bother (1 item)

* Sexual function (8 items)

* Sexual bother (1 item)

* Bowel function (4 items)

* Bowel bother (1 item)

Response options: 3- to 6-point Likert scales. The higher the score, the better the outcome

Procedure-related costsFrom surgical procedure to the end of follow-up period (6 months)

Estimate

Estimated Blood LossIntraoperative

Volume

Postoperative pain1-4 days postoperative

Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) 0-10 scale for the self-reported rate of pain: zero meaning "no pain" and 10 meaning "the worst pain imaginable"

Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)1 month follow-up

PSA test

Quality of Life EvaluationPreoperative and follow-up at 1, 3 and 6 months

Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) 36 questions (8 domains) for self-reported measure of health. Domain score from 0 to 100: the higher the score, the more favorable the state of health

Time taken for platform-related technical stepsFrom the room setting, through surgical procedure until postoperative room restoration for each of expected 150 surgeries (through study completion: an average of 1 year)

Set up of operating table, Electric connections, Draping, Undraping, Docking, Undocking, Cleaning: time in minutes

Anesthesia, Lymphadenectomy, ProstatectomyEntrance of patient into operating room until completion of surgery

Minutes

Postoperative hospitalizationFrom the surgery day up to 10 days postoperative

Days of recovery until the date of release

Possible malfunction of the platformIntraoperative
