Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether using the PINPOINT imaging system intra-operatively can reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks and other complications after surgery for ovarian cancer, compared with standard intra-operative assessments alone. The PINPOINT endoscopic fluorescence imaging system uses a special camera and a fluorescent (glowing) dye that can evaluate the blood flow of the bowel in real-time. If there is an area that appears concerning, the surgeon can correct the problem during the procedure.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Arm A

Randomized to standard technique and assessment of anastomosis without the use of NIR angiography

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Endoscopy

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Standard technique and assessment of anastomosis without the use of NIR angiography

Arm B

Randomized to additional assessment of proximal colonic stump and anastomotic perfusion using NIR angiography

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Intravenous Indocyanine Green/ICG injection

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Intravenous Indocyanine Green/ICG injection will be administered for visualization

PINPOINT endoscopic fluorescence imaging system

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

After resection the surgeon will use the PINPOINT imaging system to assess perfusion of the colonic stump. The intervention will again be used following establishment of the anastomosis, however this time via a proctoscope to visualize the proximal and distal ends of the rectosigmoid anastomosis.

Endoscopy

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Standard technique and assessment of anastomosis without the use of NIR angiography
