ICG dose and storage for lymph node mapping in gynecologic cancer
Part of Cancer, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial looks at how the dose and storage of a dye called indocyanine green (ICG) affects its ability to find sentinel lymph nodes during surgery for gynecologic cancers like cervical, endometrial, and vulvar cancer. The goal is to make the procedure both more effective and more affordable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cervical, endometrial, or vulvar cancer.
- You are scheduled for surgery that uses indocyanine green dye to find sentinel lymph nodes.
- You are willing to have sentinel lymph node dissection.

This trial tests whether injecting a dye called indocyanine green (ICG) in different spots can better find sentinel lymph nodes during surgery for endometrial cancer. It may help doctors remove fewer nodes and reduce side effects.
This trial tests using a green dye called ICG (indocyanine green) during breast cancer surgery to find the first lymph nodes (sentinel nodes) that cancer may have spread to. It aims to help doctors locate these nodes more accurately, and is for people with early-stage breast cancer that has not yet spread to the lymph nodes.
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.
This trial compares two ways to check for cancer spread in the lymph nodes during surgery for esophageal cancer. One way removes more lymph nodes, the other uses a special dye to find and remove only the ones most likely to contain cancer. The goal is to see if the dye method works just as well with fewer side effects.
This trial tests if a special dye (indocyanine green) can find the first lymph nodes (sentinel nodes) during mastectomy. It may help improve staging for women with early breast cancer who need or choose mastectomy.
This study tests using a green dye (called ICG) injected near your vulvar tumor during surgery to help the surgeon see and remove the right lymph nodes. This could help avoid removing too many lymph nodes and reduce side effects.
