E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Determine the diagnostic accuracy of ICG in visualising peritoneal lesions of EOC in vivo. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- Obtaining the false positive and false negative rate of in vivo ICG fluorescence signal. - Determine the difference of estimated ICG uptake in vivo of peritoneal lesions between primary debulking and interval debulking. - Correlation between the pre-operative radiographic examination(s) and the ICG signal in vivo and the pathological examination. - Determination of the tumour-to-background ratio of fluorescence in peritoneal lesions, lymph nodes and other anatomical structures. - Assessment of the number and type of adverse effects, severe adverse effects and adverse reactions with the trial dose of the IMP. |

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Voluntary written informed consent of the participant or their legally authorized representative has been obtained prior to any screening procedures. 2. At least 18 years of age. 3. Advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer: FIGO stage IIIb, IIIc or IV. (For FIGO staging classification, please refer to Appendix 7). 4. A biopsy or cytology confirming the presence of high-grade serous epithelial ovarian carcinoma 5. Preoperative imaging (CT and/or MRI), describing metastatic implants, as standard of care. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Participant has a history of following diseases: a. Hyperthyroidism b. Autonomously functioning thyroid adenoma 2. Participant has an allergy or hypersensitivity for one or more of the following components: a. Iodine (including potassium iodine) b. Indocyanine green 3. Any disorder, which in the Investigator’s opinion might jeopardise the participant’s safety or compliance with the protocol. 4. Any prior or concomitant treatment(s) that might jeopardise the participant’s safety or that would compromise the integrity of the Trial. 5. Participation in an interventional Trial with an investigational medicinal product (IMP) or device during the surgery itself. 6. Participant has a severe renal impairment (classified as eGFR<30 ml/min/1,73m2 according to CKD-EPI). 7. Participant utilises sodium bisulfite-containing heparin preparations during the day before surgery. For Belgian registered drugs, this contains: a. Danaparoïde (Orgaran®) b. Other low-molecular weight heparins registered in Belgium do not contain sodium bisulfite and are not an exclusion criterion. 8. Participants requires thyroid scintigraphy utilising radioactive iodine one week after surgery. 9. A previous history of major intra-abdominal surgery with potentially major adhesions and/or distorted anatomy. 10. Participants utilises one of the interacting drugs listed in the protocol |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary objective of this Trial is to determine the diagnostic accuracy of ICG in visualising peritoneal lesions of EOC in vivo. By using the NIR fluorescence camera, peritoneal malignant implants should be fluorescent after intravenous injection of ICG. Benign lesions should not be fluorescent after intravenous injection of ICG. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
When 10 participants have been included in a Trial arm (i.e., in either the primary debulking group or the interval debulking group), an interim analysis will be conducted in this arm. Only the primary endpoint (i.e., whether ICG is capable to correctly visualise peritoneal lesions of EOC in vivo) will be used for the interim analysis. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
• Obtaining the false positive and false negative rate of in vivo ICG fluorescence signal by correlating these results with the pathological report. • Determine the difference of estimated ICG uptake in vivo of peritoneal lesions between primary debulking and interval debulking. • Correlation between the pre-operative radiographic examination(s) and the ICG signal in vivo and the pathological examination. • Determination of the tumour-to-background ratio of fluorescence in peritoneal lesions, lymph nodes and other anatomical structures. Correlation of this ratio with the pathological examination. • Assessment of the number and type of adverse effects, severe adverse effects and adverse reactions with the trial dose of the IMP. |

E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
