About this study

Official title: Intraoperative Evaluation of Axillary Lymphatics for Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Axillary Surgery

This study will assess the feasibility of using the OnLume Imaging System for fluorescence-guided surgery along with indocyanine green (ICG) dye in the operating room for the axillary reverse mapping (ARM) procedure in women with breast cancer scheduled to have axillary dissection (AD) or sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy.

Read the detailed description

Lymphatic drainage from the upper arm is often different from that of the breast, allowing safe removal of only the lymphatics of the breast and protection of the lymphatic channels draining the upper extremity during axillary dissection (AD) or sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy, thereby reducing the risk of arm lymphedema.

In this prospective study, breast cancer patients undergoing SLN biopsy (n=0-20) or axillary lymph node dissection (n=0-15) will be enrolled to undergo axillary reverse mapping (ARM) using isosulfan blue dye. Participants will also receive ICG injection with visualization through the OnLume Imaging System to allow comparison of blue dye versus ICG lymphatic identification.

The standard of care (blue dye) will be used for clinical care while the OnLume Imaging System is being used to determine feasibility of the product.

Receives: Device: OnLume Imaging System; Drug: Indocyanine green

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Cases Where Lymphatics Were Visualized by Blue Dye Versus by ICG Using the OnLume Imaging System

    This measure will determine whether lymphatics were visualized (yes/no) by each modality during axillary reverse mapping

    Measured: up to 1 day (day of surgery)

  2. Number of Cases Where Lymphatics Were Spared by Blue Dye Versus by ICG Using the OnLume Imaging System

    This measure will determine whether lymphatics were spared (yes/no) by each modality during axillary reverse mapping

    Measured: up to 1 day (day of surgery)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Maximum Contrast-to-Noise Ratio of ICG/OnLume Imaging System Fluorescence Signal

    A time curve of contrast-to-noise (CNR) ratio of lymphatic vessels to background tissue will be measured over the time frame of up to five minutes post-injection. The fluorescence signal intensity in both (1) the lymphatic vessels and in (2) the surrounding tissue will be measured in fluorescence arbitrary units. These two values will be aggregated to calculate and report the CNR, which is a unitless ratio. The maximum CNR will be reported.

    Measured: Imaging data will be collected on the day of surgery (Day 1) - CNR will be measured up to five minutes post-injection of ICG]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing OnLume Imaging System and Indocyanine green in people with Lymphedema and Surgery, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 13 Nov 2024. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 May 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?

Number of Cases Where Lymphatics Were Visualized by Blue Dye Versus by ICG Using the OnLume Imaging System (time frame: up to 1 day (day of surgery)). 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 13 Nov 2024.
