About this study

Official title: Testing the Efficacy of Indocyanine Green Imaging (ICG-SPY) in the Identification of Sentinel Lymph Nodes (SLN) in Patients With Malignant Melanoma

This clinical trial compares and contrasts lymph node mapping using indocyanine green (IC-GREEN), isosulfan blue (ISB), and TSC and Lymphoscintigraphy with 99-technetium (99Tc) sulfur colloid (TSC).

Study participants with malignant melanoma will undergo all 3 evaluations to assess the extent of the spread of the melanoma.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To show that indocyanine green (ICG) (indocyanine green solution) is equal to both isosulfan blue (ISB) and technetium Tc 99m sulfur colloid (TSC) and will allow all lymph node mapping to occur in the operating room (OR).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive peri-tumoral, intradermal injections of isosulfan blue and indocyanine green solution. During surgery, patients undergo identification of the sentinel lymph node and imaging using a laser with videocamera (SPY Elite camera).

Being tested
Indocyanine green solution, Isosulfan blue (ISB), Lymphoscintigraphy with 99-technetium (99Tc) sulfur colloid (TSC)

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sentinel Lymph Node (SLN) DetectionExperimentalAll patients receive peri-tumoral, intradermal injections of isosulfan blue and indocyanine green solution for detection of melanoma in lymph nodes. In addition, lymphoscintigraphy with 99-technetium (99Tc) sulfur colloid (TSC) will be conducted for all participants with the same objective.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Indocyanine green solution, Isosulfan blue (ISB) and Lymphoscintigraphy with 99-technetium (99Tc) sulfur colloid (TSC) in people with Recurrent Melanoma, run by Stanford University at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 24 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 24 May 2017). 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?

Sentinel Lymph Nodes (SLN) Mapping (time frame: Up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 24 May 2017.
