What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • near-infrared light nasal endoscope used with ICGDevice

    Using the near-infrared light nasal endoscope with ICG will identify anatomical landmarks and and tumor characteristics to provide a clear demonstration of the blood supply.

Study groups in NCT03072186
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
near-infrared light nasal endoscope used with ICGExperimentalICG will be administered to identify the blood supply at two distinct stages of endonasal cranial base surgery and tumor dissection: before intradural dissection and during tumor dissection.
Receives: Device: near-infrared light nasal endoscope used with ICG

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. ICG Fluorescence Ratio

    We aim to show that ICG fluorescence of the tumor intraoperatively is directly proportional to the contrast enhancement of the tumor from preoperative MRI. Enhancement is shown in ratio form on a scale of 0.01-1.00 showing enhancement ratios of 1. gland to internal carotid artery compared to blood fluorescence and 2. tumor tissue to blood fluorescence. Video recordings of intra-operative ICG fluorescence was compared to pre-operative imaging enhancements and compared in ratio format with a possible score of 0.01-1.00 The higher the ratio, the more closely the intra-operative fluorescence was related to the pre-operative imaging enhancements. 1.00 is considered to have the same enhancing brightness on pre-operative imaging as intra-operative video surveillance.

    Measured: Before intradural dissection and during tumor dissection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing near-infrared light nasal endoscope used with ICG in people with Skull Base Neoplasms and Skull Neoplasms, run by Ohio State University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Mar 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ICG Fluorescence Ratio (time frame: Before intradural dissection and during tumor dissection.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Apr 2021.
