SP Thoracic IDE Study

Not Applicable
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Primary Lung Cancer
Thymoma
Myasthenia Gravis
Benign Lung Disease
Interventions
Device: Robotic-Assisted Surgery
Registration Number
NCT05150210
Lead Sponsor
Intuitive Surgical
Brief Summary

To confirm the safety and performance of the da Vinci SP Surgical System, Instruments and Accessories in pulmonary lobectomy, and in thymectomy procedures.

Detailed Description

Primary performance:

The primary endpoint will be assessed as the ability to complete the planned da Vinci SP-assisted thoracic procedure without conversion to an alternate approach. Conversion to an alternate approach comprises undocking of the da Vinci SP to complete the planned procedures using other methods, such as open, VATS, or multiport robotic (da Vinci SI or X/Xi)

Primary Safety:

The primary safety endpoint will be assessed as the incidence of all intra-operative and post-operative adverse events that occur through the 30-day follow-up period.

Exclusion Criteria
  • Clinical or radiological evidence of mediastinal or systemic metastatic disease
  • Life expectancy < 6 months
  • Subject with a known bleeding or clotting disorder
  • Subjects actively receiving therapeutic-dose anticoagulation or anti-platelet medications at the time of operation
  • Uncontrolled systemic illness 6 months prior to planned surgical procedure including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Previous chemotherapy, immunotherapy and/or radiation therapy for treatment of the cancer to be resected
  • Subject has a contraindication for general anesthesia or surgery
  • Subjects under active immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive regimen (e.g. transplant patient, high-dose steroid requirement) within 30 days prior to the planned surgical procedure. For myasthenia patients, if steroids are weaned down to prednisone ≤ 5 mg/day prior to day of surgery, the patient may be enrolled
  • Previous sternotomy
  • Subject belongs to vulnerable population
  • Subject is pregnant or suspected to be pregnant or breastfeeding

Lobectomy Exclusion Criteria:

  • Tumor involving carina or any airway requiring sleeve resection, bronchoplasty
  • Tumor requiring resection of local structures (e.g. chest wall) or extended resection such as bilobectomy
  • History of pulmonary hypertension
  • Previous ipsilateral thoracic surgery or radiotherapy

Thymectomy Exclusion Criteria:

  • Uncontrolled myasthenia gravis symptoms at the time of scheduled surgery
  • Tumor requiring resection of local structures (except pericardium)
  • Confirmed thymic carcinoma

Intraoperative Exclusion Criteria:

  • Anatomy determined intra-operatively to be unsuitable for minimally invasive surgery
