Single-Port Versus Multi-Port Robotic Radical Prostatectomy
Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate

About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants must have histologically or cytologically confirmed prostate cancer, stage T1a, T2a or T2b prostate cancer using MRI staging.
- Life expectancy greater than 10 years.
- Participants must have ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document or have a surrogate with the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent for radical prostatectomy.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Participants with any prior extensive pelvic surgery or pelvic fractures.
- Prior treatment for prostate cancer such as radiotherapy or focal therapy.
- Uncorrected coagulopathy.
- Active soft tissue or urinary infection.
- Poor surgical risk (defined as American Society of Anesthesiology score > 3)
- Any condition or history of illness or surgery that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose additional risk to the patient (e.g. significant cardiovascular conditions that significantly affect the life expectancy, chronic opiate use, pain syndrome, or drug abuse.)
- Participants with uncontrolled intercurrent illness 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

Active Comparator
Active Comparator
Extraperitoneal SinglePort (SP) Robotic Radical Prostatectomy (Da Vinci ® SP system)
Extraperitoneal MultiPort (MP) Robotic Radical Prostatectomy (Da Vinci ® Xi system)
All participants will undergo SOC robotic radical prostatectomy. The procedure for this arm uses the Da Vinci ® SP system. Access point consists of one 3.5 cm single infraumbilical incision for the SP-RARP
All participants will undergo SOC robotic radical prostatectomy. The procedure for this arm uses the Da Vinci ® Xi system, where four 8mm trocars will be used along with a 12 mm assistant trocar (a surgical instrument) to create six small incisions during the surgery
