About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Open-label, Dose-finding Study to Determine the Optimal Dose for Lymph Node Visualization Using ASP5354 in Participants With Breast Cancer or Melanoma Undergoing Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

This study was for women with breast cancer and for adults with melanoma. Breast cancer was a type of cancer when cells in the breast turn into cancer cells, which might grow out of control. Melanoma was a type of skin cancer that starts in cells called melanocytes. These cells made a substance called melanin which gives the skin its color. In this study, people had surgery to remove the lymph node closest to the site of their cancer. This lymph node was called the sentinel node. This was done to check if the cancer had spread from the original site to the sentinel node. This procedure was called a sentinel node biopsy.

This study provided more information on a potential new dye, called ASP5354, used in sentinel node biopsies. ASP5354 helped to show the lymph nodes more clearly during surgery. This helped the surgeon find the lymph node closest to the site of the cancer (sentinel node).

The main aim of the study was to find the best dose of ASP5354 that clearly showed the lymph nodes during surgery. This was an open-label study. That means each person in the study and the study doctors knew that person received ASP5354.

Each person only received 1 dose of ASP5354.

People that wanted to take part in the study were checked by a study doctor. This was on a separate visit before their surgery. Before surgery, people who took part in the study were asked if they had any other medical problems. They had a physical exam, an ECG to check their heart rhythm, and had their vital signs checked (blood pressure, pulse rate, and breathing rate). Other checks included some blood and urine samples taken for laboratory tests.

During surgery, a study surgeon injected ASP5354 near the cancer site. They recorded how clearly they could see the lymph nodes. Some blood samples were taken for laboratory tests and an ECG was done. After their surgery, people were asked if they have any other medical problems.

People returned to the hospital 9 days later for a check-up. The check-up included a physical exam, an ECG to check their heart rhythm, and a check of their vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate, and breathing rate). Other checks included some blood samples taken for laboratory tests. People were asked if they had any medical problems and asked to complete a feedback survey.

What is being measured

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

  1. Optimal Dose of ASP5354 for Lymph Node (LN) Visualization

    The optimal dose was defined as the dose that provided a better visualization compared with lower doses and a comparable visualization to the next higher dose. In the case where 2 doses performed equally, the lower dose was selected. Cumulative visualization data of the LNs from all treated participants was used for optimal dose determination. The optimal dose was determined by the Visualization Review Committee (VRC) using data from the following assessments: LN tissue visualized (Y/N), visualized tissue is lymphatic in origin based on pathologic confirmation, Likert Scale determination of the intensity of fluorescence, and proportion of identified LN with histopathologic confirmation of LN tissue by ASP5354 compared with standard of care (SOC) treatment.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least 1 LN Detected Using ASP5354

    The visualization of at least 1 LN with histopathologic confirmation is assessed by using a binary "Yes" or "No" question. Those participants with "Yes" as response was reported.

    Measured: Day 1 up to day 10

  2. Percentage of Identified LN Tissue by ASP5354 Compared With SOC Treatment

    The percentage of identified LN with ASP5354 will be compared with SOC treatment with either Tc-99mSC or Lymphoseek, through histopathologic confirmation.

    Measured: Day 1 up to day 10

  3. Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE)

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable \& unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product. An AE was considered "serious" if, it resulted in any of the following outcomes: results in death; is life-threatening; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions; results in congenital anomaly, or birth defect; requires inpatient hospitalization; or leads to prolongation of hospitalization; other medically important events. TEAE was defined as an AE observed after starting administration of the study drug.

    Measured: From first dose up to day 10

  4. Plasma Concentration of ASP5354

    Plasma concentration of ASP5354. The Lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was defined as 1.00 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). Measured values below the LLOQ were expressed as <LLOQ and not reported.

    Measured: Predose, approximately 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes postdose, and at the end of surgery (day 1)

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 10 inclusion and 14 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 20 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.

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 1 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?

Optimal Dose of ASP5354 for Lymph Node (LN) Visualization (time frame: Day 1). 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 20 Nov 2024.
