Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Robotic Versus Open Radical Prostatectomy

Phase 4
Terminated
Conditions
Prostatic Neoplasms
Adenocarcinoma
Interventions
Procedure: Open Radical Prostatectomy
Procedure: Robotic Radical Prostatectomy
Registration Number
NCT01365143
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

To date, no study has prospectively compared open versus robotic radical prostatectomy in a randomized fashion for patients with prostate cancer. For patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer who choose surgical management, the choice of surgical approach is often limited to surgeon preference and experience. This study will prospectively randomize patients with localized prostate cancer who are candidates for surgical management to open versus robotic radical prostatectomy.
