Study Summary

Objectives: 1. To determine the feasibility of using microdose amounts of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent contrast agent to image tumor-draining and contralateral lymphatics in melanoma patients prior to standard-of-care sentinel lymph node biopsy OR completion lymph node dissection (axillary or inguinofemoral) 2. To determine the feasibility of using nonradioactive optical imaging techniques with indocyanine green (ICG) as a fluorescent contrast agent to characterize lymphatic architecture and function by correlating the observed lymphatic structure and function with tumor and nodal status as determined from standard-of-care immunohistochemical evaluation.

Primary Outcome

Procedure feasible if 18 out of 24 evaluable patients have 80% or more nodes identified by ICG among all resected nodes. Descriptive analyses performed to report the mean percentage and its 95% confidence interval of the nodes identified by ICG among the total resected nodes of all evaluable subjects. Outcome will be tabulated by age, different tumor stage, nodal status, and body mass index.

Interventions

  • DRUG Indocyanine Green (IC-Green)
  • PROCEDURE Imaging
