Study Arms (1)

Photodynamic therapy-Photofrin

EXPERIMENTAL

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the i.v. injection of porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) followed by illumination of the tumor using a fiber optic device during navigational bronchoscopy. Two days after the injection, the laser light will be applied to the tumor.

Drug: Porfimer SodiumDevice: Fiber optic

Interventions

Porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) will be injected intravenously at a dose of 2 mg/kg.

Also known as: Photofrin
Photodynamic therapy-Photofrin

After injection of porfimer sodium (Photofrin®), a flexible bronchoscopy with navigation guidance will be performed to confirm the location and the size of the lesion with the use of radial probe endobronchial ultrasonography (REBUS). An optical fiber diffuser length matching the tumor length will be placed in the lesion or adjacent to the lesion under fluoroscopy guidance. After the placement of the optical fiber, the laser light will be applied at a dose of 200 J/cm of diffuser length.

  • Candidate for surgical resection
  • Candidate for bronchoscopy
  • Tumor is accessible for unrestricted illumination of PDT
  • Subject is deemed likely to survive for at least 3 months
  • Non-menopausal/non-sterile female subject of childbearing potential has negative B-HCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin) at time of study entry
  • Non-menopausal/non-sterile female subject of childbearing potential uses medically acceptable form of birth control
  • Subject is able and willing to provide written informed consent to participate in the study, which must comply with ICH (International Council for Harmonisation) guidelines \& local requirements

You may not qualify if:
