Trial summary

This research study will evaluate how near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging with low-dose second window indocyanine green (ICG) can assist in the radical resection and pathologic diagnosis of malignant soft tissue sarcoma, such as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) and skin squamous cell carcinoma (sSCC)… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Near-infrared Fluorescence Image-guided Surgery for Malignant Soft Tissue Tumor With Low-dose Second Window Indocyanine Green Technique: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

This research study will evaluate how near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging with low-dose second window indocyanine green (ICG) can assist in the radical resection and pathologic diagnosis of malignant soft tissue sarcoma, such as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) and skin squamous cell carcinoma (sSCC) during surgery.

Read the detailed description

To improve the accuracy of radical resection by reducing the risk of missed diagnosis of positive margin, this study will explore clinical application of near-infrared fluorescence imaging with modified low-dose SWIG technique in guiding radical resection of malignant soft tissue tumor. The investigators conduct a multi-center, multi-subgroup, prospective randomized controlled trial. The participants will be first stratified according to histological type involving dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) and skin squamous cell carcinoma (sSCC). The patients with DFSP or sSCC will be then randomly assigned to three groups. Patients in the control group will not receive ICG administration. The ICG was injected intravenously 24 hours before surgery, at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg in the first experimental group and 25 mg/patient in the second experimental group, respectively. The patients in the control groups will undergo traditional assessment of surgical margins.The patients in the experimental groups, on the other hand, will be scheduled to intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence imaging to scan gross tumor, tumor bed and cross-sectional specimen. The 2-year local recurrence rate will be regarded as primary outcome. The number of positive margins will be compared among groups. The investigators will also calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) with 95% confidence intervals based on fluorescent signal of tumor bed in the experimental groups.

Individual data sharing
Yes: The IPD will include patient characteristics, tumor location, tumor size and histological type and grade. The number of positive margins will be recorded. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) will also be calculated. The adverse effects between first and second experimental groups will be compared. The 2-year local recurrence rate will be viewed as primary outcome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ICG administration in people with Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans (DFSP) and Skin Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by The Plastic Surgery Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.

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 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Dr. Han (+86-15001222456, hanyudi_301@foxmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

2-year local recurrence rate (time frame: up to 24 months). 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 24 Sep 2024.
