Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Feasibility of our newly built dual-wavelength spectroscopy system in combination withthe fluorescent tracers durvalumab-680LT and nivolumab-800CW to gain insight in theheterogeneity of the PD-1/PD-L1 expression before and after neoadjuvant therapy | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - To assess the safety of dual tracer administration of nivolumab-800CW anddurvalumab-680LT by evaluating vital parameters, AE's, SAE's and SUSARS.- To compare the fluorescence intensity of the fluorescent tracer durvalumab-680LT andnivolumab-800CW before and after neoadjuvant therapy;- To investigate the correlation between fluorescence signals detected in vivo with exvivo histopathology, immunohistochemistry;- To compare PD-L1 and PD-1 expression detected during study-specific procedureswith the standard biopsies to assess spatial heterogeneity;- To assess the (sub)-cellular location and distribution of durvalumab-680LT andnivolumab-800CW by ex vivo fluorescence microscopy;- To determine the most optimal dose of nivolumab-800CW for fluorescence molecularendoscopy. | — |
