First seen Dec 29, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study tests whether a dye called panitumumab-IRDye800 can make head and neck cancer cells glow during surgery, helping surgeons see and remove them more accurately. About 25 adults with head and neck cancer who are already scheduled for surgery will receive the dye beforehand. The goal is to see if the dye clearly highlights cancer compared to healthy tissue, and to check its safety.
