Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This clinical trial studies diffuse optical imaging with indocyanine green solution in imaging pelvic lymph nodes in patients with stage II prostate cancer undergoing surgery. Indocyanine green solution is a special dye that can help doctors see the lymph nodes and blood vessels during surgery when visualized under diffuse optical imaging. Indocyanine green solution may improve the ability to detect lymph nodes and may lead to improved accuracy of lymph node removal.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: indocyanine green solution
  • Other: diffuse optical imaging
  • Procedure: robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery
  • Procedure: therapeutic lymphadenectomy
Phase 1

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. To determine the ability of indocyanine green (indocyanine green solution) (ICG) to highlight pelvic lymphatic tissue with fluorescence during robot assisted radical prostatectomy using near infrared fluorescence (diffuse optical imaging).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
  1. To evaluate the ability of this technique to improve lymph node yield, providing a potential therapeutic benefit to these patients by removing additional lymph nodes that may otherwise have been missed.
OUTLINE:

Patients receive indocyanine green transperineally and undergo diffuse optical imaging during robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with bilateral lymph node dissection using the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1-2 weeks.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Intraoperative detection of fluorescence in pelvic lymphatic tissue by near-infrared imaging technology on the da Vinci Surgical System following direct injection of ICG into the prostate [At the time of surgery]

      The ability to image lymph nodes prior to dissection will be estimated using means and standard errors for all observations as well as stratified by dose level and other relevant patient characteristics.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Quality of fluorescence as detected by near-infrared technology on the da Vinci Surgical System of lymphatic tissue at varying safe doses of ICG [At the time of surgery]

      Analyzed using means and standard errors for continuous data and generating frequencies and percentages for categorical data. The Kruskal Wallis test and chi-square test (or Fisher's exact test as appropriate) will be used to detect any apparent differences in continuous and categorical data, respectively.

    2. Lymph node yield [At the time of surgery]

      Analyzed using means and standard errors for continuous data and generating frequencies and percentages for categorical data. The Kruskal Wallis test and chi-square test (or Fisher's exact test as appropriate) will be used to detect any apparent differences in continuous and categorical data, respectively.

    3. Number of positive lymph nodes (nodes that contain cancer on final pathology) [At the time of surgery]

      Analyzed using means and standard errors for continuous data and generating frequencies and percentages for categorical data. The Kruskal Wallis test and chi-square test (or Fisher's exact test as appropriate) will be used to detect any apparent differences in continuous and categorical data, respectively.
