This is a single-center, non-randomized, prospective interventional pilot study. Feasibility of intraoperatively visualizing tumour (margins) in penile and tongue tumours using EMI-137 will be investigated. Patients, ≥ 18 years of age, with ≥T1 penile or tongue cancer undergoing primary tumour surgery will be included. All patients will receive an intravenous bolus injection of EMI-137 prior to surgery. Main study parameters/endpoints are: Intraoperative visualization of primary penile or tongue tumours using a dedicated clinical fluorescence camera. The in vivo detected fluorescence signal will be correlated to ex vivo measurements and pathological assessment of the ex-cised tissue.
In this study we evaluate the feasibility of intraoperative visualization of penile and tongue tumours using the fluorescent tracer EMI-137.
