NCT ID NCT07038278
First seen Mar 16, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tests whether a fluorescent dye called 5-ALA can help surgeons see soft-tissue sarcoma tumors during surgery. The dye is given to patients a few hours before the operation and makes tumor tissue glow under a special light. The study will enroll 20 adults with grade 2 or 3 soft-tissue sarcoma who are scheduled for surgery. The main goal is to see if the dye helps distinguish tumor from healthy tissue and to evaluate how well it works for guiding tumor removal.
