Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Ovarian Cancer

Basic Information

Recruitment status Recruiting
Health condition(s) or Problem(s) studiedOvarian cancer (including fallopian tube cancer)
Date of first enrollment27/02/2026
Target sample size30
Countries of recruitment
Study typeInterventional
Intervention(s)After creating the necessary surgical field for laparoscopic surgery, ICG is injected locally around the tumor. The ICG used is a solution of 25 mg of Diagnogreen dissolved in 20 mL of sterile distilled water to a concentration of 1.25 mg/mL. The total dose administered is 1.0 mL per side (0.5 mL each to the base of the ovarian ligament and the base of the ovarian suspensory ligament), for a total of 2.0 mL on both sides. Subsequently, near-infrared light is irradiated using a laparoscopic ICG system, and the sentinel lymph nodes are identified using the fluorescence emitted by ICG.

Outcome(s)

Primary OutcomeSentinel lymph node detection rate
Secondary Outcome(1) False negative rate (2) Diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value) (3) Number of sentinel lymph nodes excised (4) Detection rate of micrometastasis and isolated tumor cells in sentinel lymph node pathology (5) Incidence of adverse events relevant to this study
