What This Study Did, in Plain Language

What Was Tested

In this not phased trial, researchers set out to test Methylene blue (non-peptide stack partner).

This clinical trial is a prospective, multicenter, self-controlled clinical study.

It had 1 arm (groups): Self control (experimental).

The registry classes the interventions as drug.

More on the Plan

This trial was a prospective, multicenter, and self controlled clinical trial.

A large number of clinical data show that the number of blue staining methods was 1-2.4, and the number of fluorescence detection is 2-3.7.

Who Took Part

The registry lists 130 actual participants took part.

It was open to women only aged from 18 years up to 75 years.

Healthy volunteers were not accepted; participants needed the condition being studied.

Examples of who could join: The age of 18-75 years, female patients;. Participants voluntarily participated in the clinical trial and signed informed consent.

The full record lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria; among the exclusions: had received slnb or axillary surgery;; breast area radiotherapy or neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been accepted; clinical hints of axillary lymph node metastasis;.

How the Study Was Run

Design: single-group and open-label.

Nothing was hidden in this open-label Methylene blue (non-peptide stack partner) study: the participants and staff both knew the treatment.

Everyone received the same intervention, so there was no separate comparison group inside the trial.

It started in 2017-08-24 with completion listed for 2019-08-30.

It ran at 1 site in China.

Its stated primary purpose is treatment.

What Was Measured

Primary outcome: Sentinel lymph node detection number (time frame: 1 year).

What This Means in Plain Language

Put simply, this is a not phased trial of Methylene blue (non-peptide stack partner) in 130 people.

The trial is marked completed; no results are posted to the registry yet, so nothing here describes outcomes.
