Clinical Trial Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies how well intravital microscopy works in evaluating patients with primary peritoneal, fallopian tube, or stage IA-IV ovarian cancer. Intravital microscopic evaluation of tumor blood vessels, blood flow, immune cell interactions, and drug uptake may be eventually visualized and may lead to valuable prognostic information.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the feasibility of performing intravital microscopy on accessible human ovarian, primary peritoneal and fallopian tube cancers during their standard course of treatment (i.e., surgical debulking).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the blood flow velocity of the tumor vessels and tissue penetration of fluorescein as a marker of tumor vessel permeability.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive fluorescein sodium injection intravenously (IV). Patients also undergo observation of primary and metastatic tumors via microscopy over 15-20 minutes during the course of standard of care surgery.

After completion of study, patients are followed up for 30 days, at 1-3 weeks, and then up to 2 years.

Recruitment information / eligibility

• Status: Completed
• Enrollment: 19
• Est. completion date: February 15, 2021
• Est. primary completion date: February 15, 2021
• Accepts healthy volunteers: No
• Gender: Female
• Age group: 18 Years and older

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of =< 2

• Suspicion of gynecological malignancy that requires a standard of care surgical resection in the operating room;

• Have measurable lesion in the pelvis or abdomen, at a minimum of 0.5 cm in diameter on standard of care pre operative imaging studies (CT, MRI or PET scan),

• Subject or legal representative must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board approved written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure

• Serum Creatinine <= 1.5 X upper limit of normal (ULN) OR measured or calculated creatinine clearance = 60 mL/min for participant with creatinine levels > 1.5 X institutional ULN (using Cockcroft-Gault Equation), GFR can also be used in place of creatinine or CrCl.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements

• Any known allergy or prior reaction to fluorescein

• Nursing female subjects

• Liver dysfunction; normal liver function defined as total bilirubin within normal institutional limits and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT]) =< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal

• Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the subject an unsuitable candidate to undergo observational study (may also include preoperative testing results including electrocardiography (EKG), chest x-ray, or pulmonary function tests that preclude a wide excision in the operating room)
