Trial summary

A prospective, randomized, controlled study designed to assess whether digital virtual reality (VR) models, created from existing CT scans and MRIs, provide surgeons with an improved understanding of their patients' anatomy, resulting in more efficient operations (robotic partial nephrectomy) and improved patient care.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Total Operative Time

    Measured: During procedure

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Blood Loss

    Measured: Measured at end of procedure

  2. Clamp Time

    Measured: Measured at end of procedure

  3. Number of Patients With Conversion to Open Surgery

    Measured: During procedure

  4. Number of Patients With Conversion to Radical Nephrectomy

    Measured: During procedure

  5. Number of Patients With an Intraoperative Complication

    Measured: During procedure

  6. Patient Hospital Stay

    Measured: Measured at time of patient discharge, up to 10 days

  7. Number of Patients With a Positive Surgical Margin

    Incomplete removal of tumor as defined by the surgical pathology

    Measured: Measured 1-2 weeks after discharge

  8. Post-Op Complication

    Measured: Measured up to 6 months after discharge

  9. Readmission

    Measured: Measured up to 6 months after discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Ceevra Reveal in people with Kidney Cancer and Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Ceevra, Inc. at 6 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 11 Aug 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total Operative Time (time frame: During procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03334344, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Aug 2024.
