Brief Summary

According to the World Health Organization, cancer is a leading cause of death in men and women, accounting for 7.6 million deaths (around 13% of all deaths) in 2008. Surgery remains the best option for patients presenting with operable Stage I or II cancers, however the five year survival rate for these candidates remains at a dismally low. The high rates of recurrence suggest that surgeons are unable to completely detect and remove primary tumor nodules in a satisfactory manner as well as lingering metastases in sentinel lymph nodes. By ensuring a negative margin through near-infrared imagery it would be possible for us to improve the rates of recurrence from patients and thus overall survival.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The ability of the imaging system to detect the expression of the ICG in the nodule/mass (i.e tumor) and discern the uptake of the dye by the tumor.

    Before surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The number of participants that will have an adverse reaction to the ICG.

    Day 1-Day 30

Study Arms (1)

ICG injection group

EXPERIMENTAL

This group will receive a single dose of ICG, infused over 40 minutes. During surgery, they will be imaged with a camera and an imaging probe the investigators have developed.

Drug: Indocyanine Green (ICG)

Interventions

Also known as: ICG
ICG injection group

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients over 18 years of age
  • Patients presenting with a solid tumor presumed to be resectable cancer and are at risk for local recurrence on pre-operative assessment
  • Good operative candidate as determined by the treating physician and multidisciplinary team
  • Subject capable of giving informed consent and participating in the process of consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant women as determined by urinary or serum beta hCG within 72 hours of surgery
  • Subjects with a history of iodide allergies
  • Vulnerable patient populations
  • People who would be easily lost to follow up
  • Patients unable to participate in the consent process (children and neonates).
