About this trial

In this feasibility study, bronchoscopy will be combined with fluorescence molecular imaging using the near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) tracer bevacizumab-800CW for assessment of pulmonary lesions and/or lymph nodes considered to be malignant.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Signed informed consent prior to participation in the study.

Age ≥ 18 years.

Patient has at least one intrabronchial, near-to-airway located or peripheral pulmonary nodule - with or without pathological lymph nodes - which is considered malignant (independent of its primary origin).

Patient is considered fit to undergo a diagnostic and/or therapeutic bronchoscopy (with or without addition of virtual navigation and/or endobronchial ultrasound; including propofol sedation or general anesthesia if either is indicated) to obtain tumor material according to standard care protocols.

Disqualifiers

History of infusion reactions to bevacizumab.

Medical or psychiatric conditions that compromise the patient's ability to give informed consent.

Pregnancy or breast feeding.

Trial design
