Summary

Many types of cancer are primarily treated with surgery and patient survival is directly related to the extent to which the tumor is able to be removed. It is often difficult for surgeons to distinguish tumor tissue from normal tissue, and failure to surgically remove a cancer-affected lymph node or residual cancer at the surgical margin reduces a patient's chance of survival. Moreover, damage to adjacent normal tissue during surgery can result in significant morbidity. The investigators hypothesize that BLZ-100 will improve surgical outcomes by allowing surgeons to visualize the edges of the tumor and small groups of cancer cells that have spread to other sites in real-time as they operate. This is a safety study to assess the safety of BLZ-100 in patients with soft tissue sarcoma undergoing surgery.

Conditions

  • Sarcoma, Soft Tissue

Interventions

DRUG

BLZ-100

All subjects enrolled in the study will receive doses of BLZ-100, an investigational drug for imaging tumors. Three different imaging windows will be investigated during the study: Early Imaging (imaging occurs within 1 day post-BLZ-100 dose); Intermediate Imaging (imaging occurs within 2-3 days post-BLZ-100 dose); Late Imaging (imaging occurs 4-7 post-BLZ-100 dose) All subjects in Part 1 of the study will be imaged in the Intermediate Imaging group. Subjects in Part 2 of the study will be randomized into one of the three imaging groups.
