Study Summary

The research study is being done to assess the safety and ability of an investigational drug called CYTALUX (pafolacianine) and a special camera system for the detection of cancer in patients undergoing surgical resection for endometrial cancer.

Primary Outcome

The primary efficacy endpoint is the sensitivity of CYTALUX with NIR imaging for detection of malignant lesions. Sensitivity is defined as the proportion of fluorescent light positive lesions that are histologically confirmed to be cancer relative to the total number of lesions confirmed to be cancer. Sensitivity = (True Positive)/(True Positive + False Negative)
