Indocyanine Green and Water for Cervical Cancer

ICD-10 C53

Indocyanine Green and Water is used in the treatment of cervical cancer, based on its FDA-labeled indications.

What is cervical cancer? Cervical cancer is cancer that starts in the cells of the cervix. The cervix is part of the female reproductive system. It is the lower, narrow end of the uterus (womb), which opens into the vagina (birth canal). Cervical cancer usually develops slowly. BMore on Cervical Cancer

How Indocyanine Green and Water is used

INDICATIONS AND USAGE Indocyanine Green for injection is indicated: Indocyanine Green for injection is an optical imaging agent indicated for: • Fluorescence imaging of vessels (micro- and macro-vasculature), blood flow and tissue perfusion before, during and after vascular, gastrointestinal, organ transplant, plastic, micro- and reconstructive surgeries, including general minimally invasive surgical procedures, in adults and pediatric patients aged 1 month and older ( 1.1 ) • Fluorescence imaging of extrahepatic biliary ducts in adults and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older ( 1.2 ) • Fluorescence imaging of lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels during lymphatic mapping in adults with cervical and uterine cancer ( 1.3 ) • Ophthalmic angiography in adults and pediatric patients ( 1.4 ) 1.1 Visualization of Vessels, Blood Flow and Tissue Perfusion Indocyanine Green is indicated for fluorescence imaging of vessels (micro- and macro- vasculature), blood flow and tissue perfusion before, during and after vascular, gastrointestinal, organ transplant, plastic, micro- and reconstructive surgeries, including general minimally invasive surgical procedures in adults and pediatric patients aged 1 month and older. 1.2 Visualization of Extrahepatic Biliary Ducts Indocyanine Green is indicated for fluorescence imaging of extrahepatic biliary ducts in adults and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older . 1.3 Lymphatic Mapping of Cervical and Uterine Cancer Indocyanine Green is indicated for fluorescence imaging of lymph nodes and delineation of lymphatic vessels during lymphatic mapping in adults with cervical and uterine cancer for which this procedure is a component of intraoperative management. 1.4 Ophthalmic Angiography Indocyanine Green is indicated for use in ophthalmic angiography in adults and pediatric patients.

Warnings

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS • Deaths due to anaphylaxis have been reported following Indocyanine Green for Injection USP administration during cardiac catheterization. ( 5.1 ) • Indocyanine Green for Injection USP is unstable in aqueous solution and must be used within 6 hours. ( 5.2 ) • Radioactive iodine uptake studies should not be performed for at least a week following the use of Indocyanine Green for Injection USP. ( 5.3 ) 5.1 Anaphylaxis Deaths from anaphylaxis have been reported following Indocyanine Green for Injection USP administration during cardiac catheterization. 5.2 Drug Instability Indocyanine Green for Injection USP is unstable in aqueous solution and must be used within 6 hours. However, the dye is stable in plasma and whole blood so that samples obtained in discontinuous sampling techniques may be read hours later. Sterile techniques should be used in handling the dye solution as well as in the performance of the dilution curves. If a precipitate is present, discard the solution. 5.3 Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions Radioactive iodine uptake studies should not be performed for at least a week following the use of Indocyanine Green for Injection USP.

Drug interactions

DRUG INTERACTIONS Interference with Thyroid Radioactive Iodine Uptake Studies Because Indocyanine Green contains sodium iodide, the iodine-binding capacity of thyroid tissue may be reduced for at least one week following administration. Do not perform radioactive iodine uptake studies for at least one week following administration of Indocyanine Green. Interference with Thyroid Radioactive Iodine Uptake Studies: Do not perform radioactive iodine uptake studies for at least one week following the use of Indocyanine Green. ( 7 )

Side effects

ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: • Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of Indocyanine Green. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Immune System Disorders : Anaphylaxis, urticaria The most common adverse reactions reported are anaphylaxis and urticaria.
