About this study

Official title: Interest of Indocyanine Green in the Neoplastic Prostatic Tissue Characterization and the Peroperative Surgical Margins Detection During a Radical Prostatectomy.

Prostate cancer, with more than 70,000 new cases and 8900 deaths a year in France, is a major public health problem. Until 28% of patients treated with surgery will present a positive surgical margin resulting in an incomplete clearance of the tumoral process and exposing so the patient at a local, systemic recurrence and increased morbidity. An increasing number of international publications have shown (ICG) was interesting for the detection of the sentinel lymph node, in the surgery of tumors of type hepatocarcinoma and liver metastases from colorectal diseases, but also in the surgery of the kidney, bladder or breast. ICG has affinity for tumor and tissues around the tumor related to micro-vascular histology for a localized and specific deposit (EPR effect).

The detection of ICG 's deposits is now possible with to the use of a device which allow to visualize the infra-red fluorescence (NIR; Near Infra-Red) for objects larger than 0.15 mm. Thanks to this feature, the location of residual tumor tissue when performing a radical prostatectomy could be made much easier.

Read the detailed description

The ability of ICG to detect a surgical margin positive intraoperatively has never be evaluated. We want to perform a monocentric prospective ex-vivo pilot in order to evaluate the diagnostic performance of fluorescence in the detection of surgical margins compared to pathologic analysis. This study will be conducted in 37 patients operated on for a radical prostatectomy after systemic injection of 0, 25 mg/Kg of ICG 24 h before the surgery. The fluorescence analysis will be performed in the operation room and then specimen will be sent to the laboratory for an analysis as usual. Two pieces of prostate will be prelevated according to a protocol. The histopathological procedure will be performed without knowledge of fluorescence analysis. Except the ICG injection the medical procedure won't be changed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity of indocyanine green

    Sensitivity (true positive) of the fluorescence due to indocyanine green to detect neoplasm tissue in prostatic biopsy compared to histological analysis

    Measured: 24h after indocyanine green infusion

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Specificity of indocyanine green

    Specificity (true negative) of the fluorescence due to indocyanine green to detect neoplasm tissue in prostatic biopsy compared to histological analysis

    Measured: 24h after indocyanine green infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing indocyanine green infusion in people with Prostatic Neoplasms, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne.

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 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Sensitivity of indocyanine green (time frame: 24h after indocyanine green infusion). 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 10 Mar 2016.
