Optimization of SPIO Injection for Sentinel Lymph Node Dissection in a Rat Model.

ABSTRACT: The magnetic technique, consisting of a magnetic tracer and a handheld magnetometer, is a promising alternative technique for sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) and was shown to be non-inferior to the standard technique in terms of identification rates. In this study, injection characteristics (iron dose, dilution, time course and massaging) were evaluated to optimize magnetic tracer uptake in the sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) in a rat hindleg model. 202 successful SLNDs were performed. Iron uptake in the SLN is proportional (10% utilization rate) to the injection dose between 20 and 200 μg, showing a plateau uptake of 80 μg in the SLN around 1000 μg injection. Linear regression showed that time had a higher impact than dilution, on the SLN iron uptake. Massaging showed no significant change in iron uptake. The amount of residual iron at the injection site was also proportional to the injection dose without any plateau. Time was a significant factor for wash-out of residual iron. From these results, preoperative injection may be advantageous for SLN detection as well as reduction in residual iron at the injection site by potential decrease in required injection dose.

Delayed Sentinel Lymph Node Dissection in Patients with a Preoperative Diagnosis of Ductal Cancer In Situ by Preoperative Injection with Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide (SPIO) Nanoparticles: The SentiNot Study.

Project description:BackgroundDifficulty in preoperatively assessing the risk for occult invasion or surgery that precludes future accurate axillary mapping in patients with ductal cancer in situ (DCIS) account for overutilization of SLND.MethodsProspective, multicenter, cohort study, including women with any DCIS planned for mastectomy or DCIS grade 2 and > 20 mm, any DCIS grade 3, any mass-forming DCIS and any planned surgery. Patients received an interstitial SPIO injection during breast surgery, but no upfront SLND was performed. If invasion was identified on final pathology, delayed SLND (d-SLND) was performed separately with the coadministration of isotope ± blue dye (BD). Study outcomes were proportion of upfront SLNDs that were avoided, detection rates during d-SLND, and impact on healthcare costs.ResultsIn total, 78.7% of study participants (N = 254, mean age 60 years, mean DCIS size 37.8 mm) avoided upfront SLND. On d-SLND (median 28 days, range 9-46), SPIO outperformed Tc99 with (98.2% vs. 63.6%, p < 0.001) or without BD (92.7% vs. 50.9%, p < 0.001) and had higher nodal detection rate (86.9% vs. 32.3%, p < 0.001) and with BD (93.9% vs. 41.4%, p < 0.001). Only 27.9% of all SLNs retrieved were concordant for Tc99 and SPIO. Type of breast procedure (WLE vs. oncoplastic BCT vs. mastectomy) affected these outcomes and accounted for the low performance of Tc99 (p < 0.001). d-SLND resulted in a 28.1% total cost containment for women with pure DCIS on final pathology (4190 vs. 5828 USD, p < 0.001).ConclusionsMarking the SLN with SPIO may avoid overtreatment and allow for accurate d-SLND in patients with DCIS.

Optimization of coded aperture radioscintigraphy for sentinel lymph node mapping.

Project description:PURPOSE:Radioscintigraphic imaging during sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping could potentially improve localization; however, parallel-hole collimators have certain limitations. In this study, we explored the use of coded aperture (CA) collimators. PROCEDURES:Equations were derived for the six major dependent variables of CA collimators (i.e., masks) as a function of the ten major independent variables, and an optimized mask was fabricated. After validation, dual-modality CA and near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence SLN mapping were performed in pigs. RESULTS:Mask optimization required the judicious balance of competing dependent variables, resulting in sensitivity of 0.35%, XY resolution of 2.0 mm, and Z resolution of 4.2 mm at an 11.5-cm field of view. The findings in pigs suggested that NIR fluorescence imaging and CA radioscintigraphy could be complementary, but present difficult technical challenges. CONCLUSIONS:This study lays the foundation for using CA collimation for SLN mapping, and also exposes several problems that require further investigation.

Optimization of near-infrared fluorescent sentinel lymph node mapping for vulvar cancer.

Project description:ObjectivesNear-infrared fluorescence imaging has the potential to improve sentinel lymph node mapping in vulvar cancer, which was assessed in the current study. Furthermore, dose optimization of indocyanine green adsorbed to human serum albumin was performed.Study designNine vulvar cancer patients underwent the standard sentinel lymph node procedure using (99m)technetium-nancolloid and patent blue. In addition, intraoperative imaging was performed after peritumoral injection of 1.6 mL of 500, 750, or 1000 ?M of indocyanine green adsorbed to human serum albumin.ResultsNear-infrared fluorescence sentinel lymph node mapping was successful in all patients. A total of 14 sentinel lymph nodes (average, 1.6; range, 1-4) were detected: 14 radioactive (100%), 11 blue (79%), and 14 near-infrared fluorescent (100%).ConclusionThis study demonstrates feasibility and accuracy of sentinel lymph node mapping using indocyanine green adsorbed to human serum albumin. Considering safety, cost, and pharmacy preferences, an indocyanine green adsorbed to human serum albumin concentration of 500 ?M appears optimal for sentinel lymph node mapping in vulvar cancer.

Optimization of Sentinel Lymph Node Imaging Methodology Using Anionic Liposome and Hyaluronidase.

Project description:The sentinel lymph node (SLN) is the first lymph node into which lymphatic fluid from tumor tissues flows. The development of a highly sensitive probe for detecting SLNs is desired for the lymph node dissection through intraoperative biopsy. We have previously shown that anionic liposomes tend to accumulate in lymph nodes and that macrophage uptake of liposomes contributes to their accumulation. In the present study, we found that among anionic lipids, phosphatidylserine (PS)-containing liposomes were substantially taken up by macrophages. We identified a new lipid composition to improve the SNL-selectivity of liposome accumulation based on Design-of-Experiment. The optimized PS-containing particles were more selectively accumulate to SLN lymph nodes than existing imaging agents indocyanine green. These results indicate the effectiveness of PS-containing anionic particles in SLN imaging.

The Use of Wearable Activity Monitors to Measure Upper Limb Physical Activity After Axillary Lymph Node Dissection and Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy.

Project description:BackgroundWe suspect that morbidity from both sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has been inadequately evaluated to date. Current methodologies are subjective and susceptible to bias. Objective assessment using wearable activity monitors (WAMs) would allow quantitative analysis of recovery by measuring physical activity (PA) and could provide evidence for axillary de-escalation.Patients and methodsA prospective, single center, observational study was conducted from February 2020 to May 2022. Consecutive patients undergoing breast and/or reconstructive surgery and axillary surgeries were identified from the operating schedules. Patients wore WAMs for an average of 3 days prior to surgery and up to 2 weeks following surgery. In total, 56 patients with breast cancer were recruited, of whom 35 underwent SLNB and 21 ALND.ResultsPatients who underwent ALND experienced significantly worse PA compared with those who underwent SLNB in week 2 (median 66.4% versus 72.7%, p = 0.015). Subgroup analysis revealed significantly lower PA in simple mastectomy (Mx)-ALND versus Mx-SLNB (median 90.3% versus 70.5%, p = 0.015) in week 2. The PA for SLNB did not return to baseline at 2 weeks after surgery.ConclusionsCompared with SLNB, ALND results in a lower PA level in week 2. The findings also indicate that SLNB has a protracted effect on PA levels, which extend to 2 weeks postoperatively. Monitoring recovery objectively following breast cancer surgery provides patients and surgeons with more information regarding the predicted outcomes of their surgery, which can drive the development of a personalized rehabilitation program.

Exploratory analysis of lateral pelvic sentinel lymph node status for optimal management of laparoscopic lateral lymph node dissection in advanced lower rectal cancer without suspected lateral lymph node metastasis.

Project description:BackgroundTotal mesorectal excision (TME) and lateral lymph node dissection (LLND) without radiotherapy (RT) are standard treatment for lower cT3/4 rectal cancers in Eastern countries. In comparative studies, both TME + LLND and RT + TME yield good local control. Although Japanese guidelines recommend LLND for locally advanced rectal cancers below the peritoneal reflection, LLND dissection of clinically negative lateral pelvic lymph nodes (LPLN) is controversial, and laparoscopic TME + LLND is technically challenging and time-consuming. New optical instruments for laparoscopy allow easy perioperative sentinel lymph node (SLN) identification using ICG. The SLN concept may facilitate accurate diagnosis of LPLN involvement, and thus reduce LLND in laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Here we investigated lateral pelvic SLN navigation surgery for SLN detection during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery.MethodsThis study included 21 patients with clinical StageII/III lower rectal cancer without LPLN enlargement, who underwent curative laparoscopic surgery. All patients underwent TME, followed by lateral SLN identification and biopsy using ICG, and then laparoscopic LLND. ICG fluorescence imaging was conducted using the laparoscopic near-infrared camera system.ResultsLateral SLNs were successfully identified in 16 (76.2%) of the 21 patients. Among the 15 patients without SLN tumor metastasis, the dissected lateral non-SLNs were all negative.ConclusionsA lack of metastasis in the lateral pelvic SLN seems to reflect a lack of metastases to all lateral LNs. Our present results suggest that this laparoscopic ICG-guided SLN strategy may be a low-risk and time-saving method to prevent laparoscopic LLND in cases with negative lateral pelvic lymph nodes.

Dose optimization for near-infrared fluorescence sentinel lymph node mapping in patients with melanoma.

Project description:Regional lymph node involvement is the most important prognostic factor in cutaneous melanoma. As only 20% of patients with melanoma have occult nodal disease and would benefit from a regional lymphadenectomy, the sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy was introduced. Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence has been hypothesized to improve SLN mapping.? To assess the potential of intraoperative NIR fluorescence imaging to improve SLN mapping in patients with melanoma and to examine the optimal dose of indocyanine green adsorbed to human serum albumin (ICG:HSA).? Fifteen consecutive patients with cutaneous melanoma underwent the standard SLN procedure using (99m) technetium-nancolloid and patent blue. In addition, intraoperative NIR fluorescence imaging was performed after injection of 1·6?mL of 600, 800, 1000 or 1200 ?molL(-1) of ICG: HSA in four quadrants around the primary excision scar.? NIR fluorescence SLN mapping was successful in 93% of patients. In one patient, no SLN could be identified using either conventional methods or NIR fluorescence. A total of 30 SLNs (average 2·0, range 1-7) were detected, 30 radioactive (100%), 27 blue (73%) and 30 NIR fluorescent (100%). With regard to the effect of concentration on signal-to-background ratios a trend (P=0·066) was found favouring the 600, 800 and 1000??mol?L(-1) groups over the 1200 ?mol L(-1) group.?This study demonstrates feasibility and accuracy of SLN mapping using ICG: HSA. Considering safety, cost and pharmacological characteristics, an ICG: HSA concentration of 600 ?molL(-1) appears optimal for SLN mapping in cutaneous melanoma, although lower doses need to be assessed.

Optimization of sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer using an operative gamma camera.

Project description:BackgroundSentinel lymph node (SLN) procedure is now a widely accepted method of LN staging in selected invasive breast cancers (unifocal, size </= 2 cm, clinically N0, without previous treatment). Complete axillary clearance is no longer needed if the SLN is negative. However, the oncological safety of this procedure remains to be addressed in randomized clinical trials. One main pitfall is the failure to visualize SLN, resulting in incorrect tumor staging, leading to suboptimal treatment or axillary recurrence. Operative gamma cameras have therefore been developed to optimize the SLN visualization and the quality control of surgery.Case presentationA 44-year-old female patient with a 14-mm infiltrative ductal carcinoma underwent the SLN procedure. An operative gamma camera was used during and after the surgery. The conventional lymphoscintigraphy showed only one SLN, which was also detected by the operative gamma camera, then removed and measured (9.6 kBq). It was analyzed by frozen sections, showing no cancer cells. During this analysis, the exploration of the axillary area with the operative gamma camera enabled the identification of a second SLN with low activity (0.5 kBq) that conventional lymphoscintigraphy, surgical probe and blue staining had failed to visualize. Histological examination revealed a macrometastasis. Axillary clearance was then performed, followed by a postoperative image proving that no SLN remained. Therefore, the use of the operative gamma camera prevented an under-estimation of staging which would have resulted in a suboptimal treatment for this patient.ConclusionThis case report illustrates that an efficient operative gamma camera may be able to decrease the risk of false negative rate of the SLN procedure, and could be an additional tool to control the quality of the surgery.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00357487.
