Summary
This trial aims to see if using Cytalux™ with Near InfraRed imaging can help find cancerous tissue better during prostate cancer surgery. The imaging agent has already been approved for use in
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with biopsy-confirmed prostate cancer who are undergoing prostatectomy and lymph node dissection. Details about specific inclusion or exclusion criteria are not provided, but typically participants must meet certain health standards and not have conditions that would interfere with the study.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Cytalux™ (pafolacianine) used alongside NIR fluorescent imaging to see if it helps better identify cancerous tissue during surgery in patients with prostate cancer. The FDA has previously approved this agent for ovarian and lung cancer surgeries.
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects of Cytalux™ (pafolacianine) are not listed here, but generally, imaging agents can cause allergic reactions, skin rashes or irritation at the injection site.
