Efficacy and Safety of a Single Dose of LS301-IT for Fluorescence Intraoperative Molecular Imaging (IMI) for Patients Undergoing Lung Cancer Resection for Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

April 16, 2026 updated by: Integro Theranostics

A Phase 2, Open-Label, Multicenter Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of a Single Dose of LS301-IT for Fluorescence Intraoperative Molecular Imaging (IMI) for Lung Cancer Resection

The aim of this Phase 2 study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of a single dose of LS301-IT, a novel fluorescence imaging agent developed by Integro Theranostics (IT), administered by intravenous (IV) infusion in patients undergoing VATS (Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery) or RATS (Robotic-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery) resection of Stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

The primary objective of the study is to determine the proportion of subjects that have at least one Clinically Significant Event (CSE) using fluorescence imaging, defined as either the localization of the primary tumor when white light has failed to identify the tumor, the identification of a synchronous or occult pulmonary tumor with fluorescence only, or the identification of an inadequate surgical margin after resection. Secondary objectives include the determination of the sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) of LS301 fluorescence imaging in the identification of tumor using histopathology as the gold standard, and the assessment of the safety and tolerability of LS301-IT. Exploratory objectives include the determination of the "Clinical Impact Rate" defined as the proportion of cases when the surgeon changes the scope of the procedure based on LS301 fluorescence imaging, the assessment of the dosing interval prior to surgery, and the standardization of imaging during surgery and surgeon assessment of fluorescence.

Description

Inclusion Criteria

  • Have a primary diagnosis, or a high clinical suspicion, for cancer in the lung based on CT, biopsy, or other imaging.
  • Are scheduled to undergo surgical thoracoscopy and resection of the lung.
  • If of childbearing potential, the patient must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening, on Day 1 prior to LS301-IT administration, as well as using a medically acceptable form of contraception (eg, hormonal birth control, double-barrier method) or abstinence.

  • History of any drug-related hypersensitivity or anaphylactic reactions, including those attributed to indocyanine green (ICG) or other contrast agents.
  • Patients with impaired renal function
  • History, or presence in the ECG at Screening, of any clinically significant abnormalities including cardiac conduction abnormalities
  • History of radiation therapy to the chest
  • Total bilirubin level >1.5 times upper limit
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) > 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinically Significant Events
Time Frame: On the day of surgery

To determine the proportion of subjects that have at least one CSE where a CSE is defined as one of 3 possible clinical events:

a. Identification of primary tumor in situ with fluorescence IMI after non-ID with white light b. Identification of synchronous or occult lung tumors with fluorescence IMI after non-ID with white light c. Identification of tumor margin of resected specimen ex vivo within 10 mm of staple line with fluorescence IMI (both ≤5 mm and ≤10 mm will be assessed)

On the day of surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity
Time Frame: day or surgery
The number of patients that are true positive divided by the number of patients that are true positive + the number of patients that are false positive (True Positive/True Positive + False Negative) of fluorescence IMI using intraoperative surgeon assessment with histopathology as the gold standard
day or surgery
Positive Predictive Value
Time Frame: day of surgery
Number of patients that are true positive divided by the number of patients that are true positive + false positive (True Positive/(True Positive + False Positive) of fluorescence IMI using intraoperative surgeon assessment with histopathology as the gold standard
day of surgery
Primary tumor identification rate
Time Frame: day of surgery
Proportion of patients that underwent flourescent imaging where the primary tumor was identified by flourescence
day of surgery
Synchronous or occult tumor identification rate
Time Frame: day of surgery
Propotion of the total number of synchronous or occult tumors identified by flourescent imaging
day of surgery
Close margin rate
Time Frame: day of surgery
The proportion of patients with a close margin identified by fluorescent imaging. Close margin is defined as a margin within less than or equal to 5 mm from the staple line and less than or equal to 10 mm from the staple line
day of surgery
Incidence of Adverse Events
Time Frame: within 30 days after dosing
The proportion of patients reporting at least one adverse event
within 30 days after dosing
