Brief Title: Evaluation of Sentinel Lymph Nodes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Official Title: A Ph 3, Prospective, Open-Label, Multicenter Study of Lymphoseek®-Identified Sentinel Lymph Nodes (SLNs) Relative to the Path Status of Non SLN in an Elective Neck Dissection in Cutaneous Head and Neck and Intraoral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Study ID: NCT00911326
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the false negative rate (FNR) associated with Lymphoseek-identified sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) relative to the pathological status of non-sentinel lymph nodes in elective neck dissection (END) in head \& neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). NEO3-06 (this study) is a Phase 3 clinical trial designed to supplement NEO3-05, a completed Phase 3 clinical trial conducted in patients with breast cancer or melanoma. NEO3-05 was designed to establish Lymphoseek as an effective radio-diagnostic agent to be used in the intraoperative localization of lymph tissue (nodes) in the lymphatic pathway draining the primary site of a tumor.
