Summary
This study tested a special dye called VGT-309 that makes lung cancer cells glow during surgery. About 89 people having lung cancer surgery received the dye to see if it helps surgeons find tumors that standard methods might miss. The goal is to improve how completely cancer is removed and find hidden cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
