Glow-in-the-dark dye could help surgeons spot brain tumors

NCT ID NCT07063693

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a fluorescent dye called ABY-029 to help surgeons better see high-grade gliomas (a type of brain tumor) during surgery. About 33 adults with suspected high-grade glioma will receive a small amount of the dye before surgery. The goal is to find the right dose that makes tumors glow without causing harm, so surgeons can remove more tumor tissue safely.
