About this study

Official title: Concurrent Use of Lymphoseek and Indocyanine Green for Sentinel Lymph Node Detection in Endometrial Cancer - a Prospective Study

The goal of this study is to (i) improve detection of sentinel nodes and (ii) reduce additional surgical dissection that is needed in case a sentinel lymph node cannot be detected.

Read the detailed description

Primary Objective: To determine the detection rate of bilateral sentinel lymph nodes with the concurrent use of Lymphoseek and Indocyanine Green.

Secondary Objective: (1) To determine the overall detection rate of sentinel lymph nodes with concurrent use of Lymphoseek and Indocyanine Green (2) To determine location and number of Lymphoseek-positive sentinel lymph nodes preoperatively by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT/CT imaging) and intraoperatively by a laparoscopic handheld gamma detection device and near- infrared fluorescent imaging (3) To determine the concordance of Lymphoseek-positive sentinel lymph nodes with intraoperatively detected Indocyanine Green-positive sentinel lymph nodes.

What participants receive

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

    Also called Laparoscopic handheld gamma counter

    Neoprobe Gamma Detection System NPB11L(Model1102) made by Devicor Medical Products, Inc.

Study groups in NCT04511026
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lymphoseek/SPECT-CT/IndocyanineExperimentalThe subject will receive f 0.5 mL each Lymphoseek into the uterine cervix prior to surgery and subsequent SPECT/CT imaging preoperatively. Intraoperatively, following anesthesia induction, Indocyanine Green (0.5 mL) will be injected into the uterine cervix. Using near-infrared imaging, efferent lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes will be visualized and confirmed by detected radioactivity using a laparoscopic gamma counter. The preoperatively obtained SPECT/CT images will help guide the surgery.
Receives: Drug: Lymphoseek; Device: Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT); Drug: Indocyanine Green (ICG); Device: Neoprobe Gamma Detection System NPB11L(Model1102)

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Bilateral SLNs

    A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected if it is detected on the pre-operative SPECT/CT imaging scan or intraoperatively using near-infrared imaging or the handheld gamma detection device.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Detection of SLN Detection

    For each subject, an assessment will be made of whether there was overall sentinel node detection. A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected if it is detected on the pre-operative SPECT/CT imaging scan or intraoperatively using near-infrared imaging or the handheld gamma detection device. If at least one SLN is detected (on any side), then this outcome will be considered a 'Yes'.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

  2. Number of SLNs Detected by Lymphoseek:

    The number of sentinel lymph nodes detected by Lymphoseek will be assessed. A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected by Lymphoseek if it is detected using the pre-operative SPECT/CT imaging scan and/or intraoperatively using the gamma detection device.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

  3. Location of SLNs Detected by Lymphoseek:

    The location and number of sentinel lymph nodes detected by Lymphoseek will be assessed. A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected by Lymphoseek if it is detected using the pre-operative SPECT/CT imaging scan and/or intraoperatively using the gamma detection device.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

  4. Number of SLNs Detected by Indocyanine Green

    Number of SLNs detected by Indocyanine Green: The location and number of sentinel lymph nodes detected by Indocyanine Green will be assessed. A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected by Indocyanine Green if it is detected intraoperatively using near-infrared imaging only and not by the gamma detection device.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

  5. Location of SLNs Detected by Indocyanine Green

    Location of SLNs detected by Indocyanine Green: The location and number of sentinel lymph nodes detected by Indocyanine Green will be assessed. A sentinel lymph node will be defined as being detected by Indocyanine Green if it is detected intraoperatively using near-infrared imaging only and not by the gamma detection device.

    Measured: during surgery, an average of 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lymphoseek, Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) and Indocyanine Green (ICG) in people with Endometrial Cancer, run by Stanford University at 1 site 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 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Oct 2023. 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 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 11 Oct 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?

Number of Participants With Bilateral SLNs (time frame: during surgery, an average of 3 hours). 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 NCT04511026, 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 11 Oct 2023.
