Glow-in-the-Dark dye could help surgeons find hidden lung cancer in teens
NCT ID NCT06235125
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a special dye called Cytalux that makes cancer cells glow under near-infrared light. Surgeons use it during lung surgery to find and remove hard-to-see tumors in teens (ages 6-17) with bone cancer that has spread to the lungs. The goal is to see if the dye helps find more tumors than standard methods.
