Fluorescent dye during laparoscopic surgery for upper stomach cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a special dye (called indocyanine green) during a minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery can help doctors see lymph nodes and cancer more clearly in patients with upper stomach cancer. The goal is to improve the precision of the surgery and possibly lead to better outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- A biopsy has confirmed you have adenocarcinoma in the upper part of the stomach.
- Your cancer is not too advanced and has not spread to distant organs, and it does not invade nearby organs like the pancreas or spleen.
- You are physically fit enough for surgery (ECOG score 0 or 1, and ASA score I–III).
- You have not had prior stomach surgery and have not received chemotherapy or radiation before surgery.

This trial tests whether a green dye called indocyanine green can help surgeons find and remove more lymph nodes during laparoscopic surgery for advanced stomach cancer. It may improve the chances of removing all cancer.
This Phase 2 study tests whether using a special light-activated dye (indocyanine green) during laparoscopic stomach surgery can improve surgical outcomes for people with remnant (leftover) stomach cancer that has not spread to distant organs. It may help surgeons better find lymph nodes while operating.
This study tests whether using a green dye (called indocyanine green) during keyhole surgery helps doctors find and remove lymph nodes more accurately in stomach cancer. It may help reduce the chance of leaving cancer behind.
This trial tests whether a special green dye (indocyanine green) injected during minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery helps doctors remove more lymph nodes, which may improve treatment. It is for people with stomach adenocarcinoma that has not spread to distant organs.
This trial tests a new way to remove stomach cancer using 3D-4K cameras and a special dye during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. It may help surgeons see the cancer better and remove it more precisely.
This trial tests whether using a green dye (called indocyanine green) during minimally invasive surgery can help the surgeon see and remove lymph nodes more effectively for stomach cancer. The dye is injected near the tumor and may improve the accuracy of lymph node removal, which could help reduce the risk of cancer coming back.
