Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Safety Study of BLZ-100 in Adult Subjects With Glioma Undergoing Surgery

Study Description

Brief Summary: Many types of cancer are primarily treated with surgery and patient survival is directly related to the extent to which the tumor is able to be removed. It is often difficult for surgeons to distinguish tumor tissue from normal tissue or to detect tumor cells that have spread from the original tumor site, resulting in incomplete removal of the tumor and reduced patient survival. In some sites, such as the brain, it is critical to avoid damage to normal tissue around the tumor to prevent adverse effects of surgery on function. We hypothesize that BLZ-100 will improve surgical outcomes by allowing surgeons to visualize the edges of the tumor and small groups of cancer cells that have spread to other sites in real-time as operate. This is a safety study to assess the safety of BLZ-100 in patients with gliomas undergoing surgery.

Detailed Description: Subjects who provide voluntary written informed consent will be screened for eligibility. Subjects meeting all of the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria will be eligible to participate. Subjects will be required to arrive at the hospital (or phase 1 unit if applicable) for dosing at least 2 hours before the planned surgical excision. Following dosing, subjects will be monitored for safety and surgical excision will occur at least 2 hours after study product administration.
