First seen Mar 07, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether a dye called SBK2-ICG can help surgeons see the exact edges of brain tumors during surgery. About 12 adults with suspected or confirmed malignant brain tumors will receive the dye before their standard surgery. The goal is to find the best dose that makes tumor borders glow, so surgeons can remove as much tumor as possible while keeping healthy brain tissue safe.
