First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 33 times
Summary
This study tests an FDA-approved dye called CYTALUX (pafolacianine) that attaches to cancer cells and glows under a special camera during surgery. About 50 adults with certain gastrointestinal or gynecologic cancers will get the dye before their operation. The goal is to see if the glowing dye helps surgeons find cancer tissue they might miss with normal eyesight or touch.
