Photodynamic Therapy in the Treatment of Malignant Intracranial Tumors

Status Withdrawn

Clinical Trial Summary

Primary Objective:

- The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of malignant intracranial tumors.

Secondary Objective:

- The secondary objective is to evaluate the safety of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of malignant intracranial tumors.

Clinical Trial Description

After passing Photosan® allergic test, the patients will be injected intravenously with Photosan® (2mg/kg) during 15~30 minutes, 48 hours prior to a standard craniotomy. Precautions are taken not to expose the patient in the operating room to direct room or operating light and to shield the skin of the flap during operation. Steroids are withdrawn 2-3 days prior to sensitization. After maximal resection, the surface of the tumor bed will be calculated and the generated cavity kept with a balloon containing intralipid (0.1%) or saline and/or artificial spinal fluid in it. A fiber with a spherical diffuser will be centered in the cavity and the surface irradiated with red (625~635nm) Halogen light. The dose of light irradiation depends on individual condition of the patient, usually with an energy density of 100 J/cm2 at a power density of 500 mW/cm2 to 600 mW/cm2. ;
