Fluorescent dye study for right-sided colon cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a fluorescent dye during surgery can help doctors better see and remove lymph nodes in people with right-sided colon cancer. It aims to make surgery more precise and potentially improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Must be between the ages of 19 and 85.
- Have right-sided colon cancer that is locally advanced (stage cT3-4 N0 or cTany N1-2).
- Cancer must be in the cecum, ascending colon, or nearby areas.
- Must be in generally good health as defined by a standard scale (ASA I-III).
- No allergy to iodine or iodine-based dyes.
- No history of bleeding disorders or other active cancers.

This trial tests whether adding a special dye (indocyanine green) during surgery to remove right-sided colon cancer helps the surgeon see and remove more lymph nodes. The goal is to improve cancer removal without adding extra risks.
This study tests using a special fluorescent dye (ICG) during surgery to help surgeons see and remove colon cancer more clearly. The dye highlights blood vessels and tissue, which may help ensure all cancer is removed safely.
This trial tests a special dye called indocyanine green to help surgeons see blood flow during surgery to remove part of the colon. If you have colorectal disease and need surgery, this could help make your operation safer.
This trial studies whether a fluorescent dye (a “tracer”) can help surgeons find the right area during laparoscopic distal (lower-part) stomach removal for early stomach cancer. It may improve how completely the cancer is removed while keeping surgery minimally invasive.
This trial tests whether using a special dye and camera during colorectal cancer surgery can help lower the risk of a surgical “leak” where the bowel is joined. If you’re having a planned left-sided colectomy or high rectal resection, the scan may help surgeons see blood flow more clearly.
This study tests whether using a special dye during surgery helps people with stage III colorectal cancer stay cancer-free longer. The dye, called indocyanine green (ICG), makes tumors and lymph nodes glow under a special camera, helping surgeons remove them more precisely.
