About this study

Official title: A Pilot and Feasibility Study of Indocyanine Green-based Fluorescence Imaging in Localization of Prostate Cancer and Metastatic Lymph Nodes

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of indocyanine green (ICG)-based fluorescence imaging in the detection of prostate tumors and metastatic lymph nodes. By correlating the ICG fluorescence patterns with pathologically confirmed tumor and nodal status, it would be possible to use fluorescence navigation system in helping prostate biopsy and lymph node dissection in the future.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will conduct an in vivo and in vitro pilot study in order to evaluate the diagnostic performance of fluorescence in the detection of prostate cancer and metastatic lymph nodes. All the patients included in this study will receive a radical prostatectomy after intravenous injection of 0.4 mg/Kg of ICG. ICG will be administered immediately after the patient is anesthetized. The fluorescence analysis will be performed intraoperatively by laparoscopic imaging and after surgery by hand-held imaging. The prostate or lymph nodes specimen with or without fluorescence signal will be sent to the Department of Pathology for pathological analysis. The histopathological procedure will be performed without knowledge of fluorescence analysis.

What is being measured

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

  1. sensitivity and specificity of the ICG-based fluorescence to detect prostate cancer

    sensitivity (true positive) and specificity (true negative) of the ICG-based fluorescence to detect prostate cancer in vivo and in vitro compared to histological analysis

    Measured: 1 week post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. sensitivity and specificity of the ICG-based fluorescence imaging to detect metastatic lymph nodes

    sensitivity (true positive) and specificity (true negative) of the ICG-based fluorescence to detect metastatic lymph nodes in vivo and in vitro compared to histological analysis

    Measured: 1 week post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Indocyanine Green (ICG) in people with Prostate Cancer, run by Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University at 1 site in China.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2016. 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 China. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Rongqin Zheng RQ Zheng, doctor (0086-02085252010, zhengrq@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sensitivity and specificity of the ICG-based fluorescence to detect prostate cancer (time frame: 1 week post-surgery). 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 NCT02840617, 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 21 Jul 2016.
