Bronchial NIR Image-guided Resection
Bronchial NIR Image-guided Resection, Mapping And Targeted Lymphadenectomy for Lung Lesions
Massachusetts General Hospital

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This is a clinical trial to evaluate the use of peritumoral injection of near-infrared dye indocyanine green to identify lung lesions and sentinel lymph nodes. The primary purpose is to determine if the use of ICG injected via navigational bronchoscopy, CT-guided or transthoracic allows us to identify the first lymph node that drains from the tumor, and thus would be the most likely site for metastatic disease, and remove it for analysis to improve the ability to detect tumor in this node and to remove this additional site that potentially contains tumor cells. Using this intraoperative imaging technique, we aim to improve the identification of lung nodules for resection and the intraoperative identification of sentinel lymph nodes in the event that a lymphadenectomy is performed.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Patients that have agreed to undergo video assisted thoracoscopic surgery or thoracotomy for surgical resection as recommended by their thoracic surgeon.
- years of age or older
- Documented, signed, dated informed consent obtained prior to any study specific procedures being performed
Exclusion Criteria1
- Pregnant women are excluded and women of childbearing potential without a negative pregnancy test prior to study procedures. All patients with Iodine allergies will be excluded.

Interventions
Patients enrolled in the study will undergo injection of near infrared dye indocyanine green around the lung lesion or within the adjacent segmental bronchus at the time of surgery via navigational bronchoscopy, or if not amenable to navigational bronchoscopy injection, then injection will be carried out via a transthoracic approach through the incision or under CT-guidance.
A near-infrared camera device will be used to detect indocyanine green following injection.
