Glowing dye lights up cancer for surgeons

NCT ID NCT04511078

Summary

This study is testing a special fluorescent dye called panitumumab-IRDye800. It is given to patients before surgery to see if it makes cancer cells glow under a special camera, helping surgeons better see and remove all the cancer. The goal is to improve the accuracy of surgery for head and neck cancer, which could lead to better outcomes. The study will also continue to check the safety of the dye.
