Pilot Study: Assessing Near Infrared Fluorescence Imaging Medical Technology for the Detection of Bladder Cancer
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Hexaminolevulinate HCL and Near Infrared Fluorescence (NIRF) for Bladder Cancer. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary outcome of this study is to determine the minimal dwell time needed for adequate detection of hexaminolevinulate HCL avid tumors using protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) near infrared fluorescence (NIRF).
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Intravesical instillation of 100 mg hexaminolevulinate HCL will be performed via foley catheter at the initiation of the procedure. Although NIRF is more sensitive than bluelight cystoscopy, the current FDA approved dose will be used. Hexaminolevulinate has a favorable safety profile at this dose.
NIRF is a highly sensitive multi-spectral imaging modality that speeds the detection of bladder cancer fluorescence after infusion of hexaminolevinulate.
