About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized,Single Dose, Open-Label Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of OTL38 Injection for Intraoperative Imaging of Folate Receptor Positive Lung Nodules

This is a phase 3, multi-center, single dose, open-label, exploratory study in suspected lung cancer patients scheduled to undergo endoscopic or thoracic surgery per CT/PET/MRI or other imaging based on standard of care. This study aims to assess the efficacy of OTL38 and Near Infrared Imaging (NIR) at identifying pulmonary nodules within the operating theater, and to assess the safety and tolerability of single intravenous doses of OTL38.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinically Significant Events (CSE)

    The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of patients who demonstrate at least one CSE as a result of utilizing OTL-38 and Near Infrared Imaging.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Localization of Primary Nodule

    Proportion of FAS subjects with one or more primary NIR fluorescence positive lung nodules (cancerous or non-cancerous, excluding normal lung parenchyma) not detected under normal light and/or palpation

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Identification of Cancerous Synchronous Lesions

    The proportion of FAS subjects with one or more NIR fluorescence positive cancerous synchronous lesions not detected under normal light and/or palpation

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Positive Resection Margins

    The proportion of FAS subjects with the identification of a cancerous positive margin that fluoresces within (less than or equal to) 10 mm of the surgical resection staple line

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Sensitivity for Cancerous Primary Nodules and Synchronous Lesions in FAS Subjects

    Sensitivity or True Positive Rate (TPR) for OTL38 used with fluorescent light in FAS subjects, defined as the proportion of fluorescent light positive primary nodules and synchronous lesions that are histologically confirmed to be cancer relative to the total number of primary nodules and synchronous lesions confirmed to be cancer.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. False Positive Rate for Cancerous Primary Nodules and Synchronous Lesions in FAS Subjects

    False Positive Rate (FPR) for OTL38 used with fluorescent light in FAS subjects, defined as the proportion of fluorescent light positive primary nodules and synchronous lesions that are histologically confirmed not to be cancer relative to the total number of fluorescent light positive primary nodules and synchronous lesions

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing OTL38 for Injection and Near infrared camera imaging system in people with Lung Neoplasms and Lung Cancer, run by On Target Laboratories, LLC at 12 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 5 inclusion and 11 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 23 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Mar 2023). 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?

Clinically Significant Events (CSE) (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 4 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 23 Mar 2023.
