Clinical Trial Details

A Fluorescent Tumor Marking Agent, Tozuleristide, for Imaging Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Cancer and High-Grade Oral Cavity Dysplasia During Surgery

Complete Title: Intraoperative Visualization of Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma and High-Grade Dysplasia with Tozuleristide, a Fluorescent Tumor Marking Agent
Trial Phase: I/II
Investigator: Emily Marchiano

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects of tozuleristide in imaging oral cavity squamous cell cancer and high-grade oral cavity dysplasia during surgery. Tozuleristide is an imaging agent that specifically binds to tumor cells. When exposed to near-infrared light, tozuleristide causes tumor cells to fluoresce (light up), so that surgeons may better distinguish tumor cells from healthy cells during surgery.
