Trial summary

The fluorescent clipping method involves endoscopic clipping a fluorescent clip into the colonic lesion site in advance of surgery, and observing the position of the fluorescence through the colonic wall by a light source of a certain wavelength band during surgery. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Feasibility and Efficacy of ICG-coated Endoscopic Clip for Tumor Localization in Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

The fluorescent clipping method involves endoscopic clipping a fluorescent clip into the colonic lesion site in advance of surgery, and observing the position of the fluorescence through the colonic wall by a light source of a certain wavelength band during surgery.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the localization of colonic lesions using ICG coated endoscopic clip in laparoscopic colon surgery.

Being tested
ICG-coated clip
Medical subject headings
Colorectal Neoplasms

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ICG clipExperimentalThree clips are fixed in three directions (120 degrees apart) at the distal of the lesion (just distal) before surgery
Receives: Device: ICG-coated clip

What is being measured

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

  1. Success rate of localization

    The rate of Identifying ICG-coated clip during surgery

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. loss rate of clips

    The rate of detachment of clips before surgery

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Number of Participants with Complication

    Procedure-related complication

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ICG-coated clip in people with Colorectal Neoplasms, run by National Cancer Center, Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Success rate of localization (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 NCT03924349, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 27 Nov 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
