VST-1001 (Dilute Fluorescein) for Lymphatic Mapping & Localization of Lymph Nodes in Patients With Breast Cancer

The study is a single center prospective, non randomized, single arm, open label, single dose VST-1001 study for lymphatic mapping and localization of lymph nodes draining a primary tumor site in patients with clinically node negative breast cancer. This study evaluates the combined modality technique of investigational VST-1001 with companion medical devices (replacing the blue dye) and 99mTc-labeled sulfur colloid for concordance in lymphatic mapping and localization of lymph nodes in patients who are undergoing a sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) surgical procedure. This purpose of the Phase I study is to determine a safe and effective recommended dose of VST-1001 for intraoperative lymphatic mapping and localization of lymph nodes draining a breast tumor. The purpose of the Phase II study is to further evaluate the Phase I study recommended dose of VST-1001 and to evaluate its ability to provide intraoperative visualization of the lymphatic system and lymph nodes draining the primary tumor in patients diagnosed with breast cancer.
