FG001 Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging During Tumor Resection in Newly Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma

Официальное название

Prospective, Single Group, Open-label Multicenter Phase 2 Study With Single-dose Administration of the Optical Imaging Agent FG001 in Subjects With Newly Diagnosed High Grade Glioma Scheduled for Neurosurgical Tumor Resection Under NIR Fluorescence Guidance

Обзор

This clinical trial aims to determine if FG001 can assist surgeons in identifying the difference between tumor and healthy tissue during surgery in participants with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma. The scheduled neurosurgical tumor resection will occur under NIR fluorescence guidance and support the surgeons in achieving complete removal of the cancer. FG001 is a 'fluorescent imaging agent,' which is a dye that glows under a special light to help doctors see certain tissues. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To see how well a special light (called NIR fluorescence imaging) can show the difference between the tumor and the nearby healthy tissue during surgery. This difference is measured by comparing how bright the tumor looks to how bright the normal tissue looks. 2. Another goal is to find out how many patients have almost all the tumor removed. This is checked by looking at MRI scans, taken within 48 hours after surgery, to see if the leftover tumor is smaller than 0.175 cubic centimeters. Participants will receive FG001 before tumor resection surgery and will participate in follow-up visits during the six months after surgery. Follow-up visits may include brain MRI, bloodwork, physical assessments, vital signs, assessment of functional and neurologic status, quality-of-life assessments, adverse event monitoring, and review of concomitant medications.

Подробное описание

INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN This is a prospective, multicenter, Phase 2 dose confirmation study of FG001 (0.45 mg/kg) with diagnostic purpose (optimal imaging agent) and a single group under NIR fluorescence imaging with FG001. Dosage will be 0.45 mg/kg FG001, single dose, intravenous injection, 12 to 19 hours before surgery. Neurosurgical tumor resection will be supported by NIR fluorescence imaging with FG001. Evaluation of MR imaging and histopathology will be conducted by central neuroradiologists and neuropathologists, respectively.

Overall Design The overall trial design is an open-label assessment of FG001 to confirm the acceptability of the dose selected (0.45 mg/kg administered within 12-19 hours of surgery).
