What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This early-stage trial tested a new fluorescent dye called LS301-IT in 24 people having lung cancer surgery. The dye is designed to attach to cancer cells and glow under a special light, helping surgeons see tumors more clearly. The main goals were to check safety and see how well the dye works at different doses and times before surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
LS301-IT (a fluorescent dye that binds to cancer cells and glows under near-infrared light)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could give surgeons a real-time tool to see lung cancer during surgery, potentially helping them remove all cancerous tissue more precisely.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 1 trial with only 24 people, focused mainly on safety. The dye may not work well in all patients, and there is a risk of allergic reactions or other side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * ECOG performance status of 0 to 2 * Have a primary diagnosis, or a high clinical suspicion, for cancer in the lung based on CT, biopsy, or other imaging. * Are scheduled to undergo surgical thoracoscopy and resection of the lung. Exclusion Criteria: * Contraindications for surgery or any medical condition that in the opinion of the investigator could jeopardize the safety of the subject * No planned surgical use of any other fluorescent optical imaging agent, or exposure to another optical imaging agent within 8 weeks prior to surgery History of any drug-related hypersensitivity or anaphylactic reactions, including those attributed to indocyanine green (ICG) or other agents used in the study, or known shellfish allergies. Known sensitivity to near infrared light Patients with impaired renal function as defined by a creatinine clearance (CrCl) \<60 mL/min at Screening, according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula ((140 - age) × body weight/plasma creatinine × 72 (× 0.85 for female) History, or presence in the ECG at Screening, of any clinically significant abnormalities including cardiac conduction abnormalities such as Fridericia's corrected QTc interval (QTcF) \> 470 ms
