What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tc99m tilmanoceptDrug

    Also called Lymphoseek

    A single dose of 0.5 mCi and 50 ug of Tc99m tilmanocept administered intradermally, peritumorally approximately 15 minutes to 8 hours before surgery

  • Vital Blue Dye (optional)Drug

    Also called Lymphazurin, Isosulfan Blue

    A single dose 1-3 mL of vital blue dye (1%) administered intradermally at the start of or during surgery (optional, per institution's standard of care).

  • Lymph Node MappingProcedure or surgery

    Intraoperative lymph node mapping will occur 15 minutes to 8 hours after Tc99m tilmanocept injection

What is being measured

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

  1. Average Number of Lymph Nodes Identified Intraoperatively Per Subject

    Measured: 1 Day

  2. Subject Localization Rates

    The proportion of subjects with Lymphoseek-identified lymph nodes

    Measured: 1 Day

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Proportion of Subjects Who Underwent Preoperative SPECT or SPECT/CT

    Measured: 1 Day

  2. Proportion of Subjects With a Lymph Node Identified Preoperatively Using SPECT or SPECT/CT

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Average Number of Lymph Nodes Identified Preoperatively Using SPECT or SPECT/CT Per Subject

    Measured: 1 Day

  4. Agreement of the Number of Nodes Identified by Preoperative SPECT or SPECT/CT to Intraoperative Localization

    Average difference in number of LNs identified preoperatively with SPECT/CR and number of LNs identified intraoperatively per subject

    Measured: 1 Day

  5. Upstaging

    The proportion of patients with pathology-positive lymph nodes who had at least one pathology-positive lymph node that was identified by Lymphoseek and had no other pathology-positive lymph nodes (i.e., identified by any other method)

    Measured: 1 Day

  6. Nodal False Negative Rate for Nodes Identified

    The number of pathology-positive lymph nodes that were missed intraoperatively by mapping agent divided by the total number of pathology-positive lymph nodes for that mapping agent. Population is all subjects with pathology-positive nodes. False negative rate represents the failure rate of the mapping agent to identify sentinel lymph nodes.

    Measured: 1 Day

  7. Nodal Sensitivity

    The number of pathology-positive lymph nodes that were identified intraoperatively by mapping agent divided by the total number of pathology-positive lymph nodes for that mapping agent. Population is all subjects with pathology-positive nodes. Sensitivity rate represents the success rate of the mapping agent to identify sentinel lymph nodes.

    Measured: 1 Day

  8. Nodal Agreement of Central Pathology Assessment With Local Pathology Assessment of the Excised Lymph Node(s) to Confirm the Presence/Absence of Tumor Metastases

    Number of nodes whose local and central pathology results agree divided by the number of nodes with nonmissing local and central pathology results

    Measured: 1 Day

  9. Change in Subject Nodal Staging Before and After Surgery Based Upon Nodes Identified

    Change in subject nodal staging was assessed via shift tables to show the number of subjects with each combination of presurgery and postsurgery nodal staging. Presurgery staging was based on standard-of-care clinical assessment. Postsurgery staging was based on the pathology results of the nodes identified.

    Measured: 1 Day

  10. Number of Changes in Postsurgical Treatment Plan in Relation to Nodes Identified by Lymphoseek

    Changes to postsurgical treatment plan will be compared to baseline treatment plan.

    Measured: 1 Day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tc99m tilmanocept, Vital Blue Dye (optional) and Lymph Node Mapping in people with Rhabdomyosarcoma and Melanoma, run by Cardinal Health 414, LLC 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 6 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 28 Jun 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Jun 2024). 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?

Average Number of Lymph Nodes Identified Intraoperatively Per Subject (time frame: 1 Day). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Jun 2024.
