Many types of cancer are primarily treated with surgery and patient survival is directly related to the extent to which the tumor is able to be removed. It is often difficult for surgeons to distinguish tumor tissue from normal tissue or to detect tumor cells that have spread from the original tumor site, resulting in incomplete removal of the tumor and reduced patient survival. In addition, in some sites, such as the brain, it is critical to avoid damage to normal tissue around the tumor to prevent adverse effects of surgery on function. We hypothesize that BLZ-100 will improve surgical outcomes by allowing surgeons to visualize the edges of the tumor and small groups of cancer cells that have spread to other sites in real-time, as they operate.

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
Time frame: Within at least 1 week from baseline
Safety will be assessed by physical examination and measurement of vital signs and laboratory safety parameters.
Time frame: Prior to dosing and 1, 5, 15, 30, 60 and 90 minutes and 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose
BLZ-100 levels in blood will be analyzed by chemical means and these data will be used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters.
Time frame: At end of study - approximately 14 months
Time frame: Prior to dosing and at 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, 12-24 and 24-48 hours post-dose
Fluorescence signal in urine samples will be measured using an infrared imaging system to determine the amount of BLZ-100 being excreted in the urine post-dosing.
Time frame: Prior to dosing on day 1 and at 2, 4, 24 and 48 hours post-dose
Fluorescence signal in skin tumor and normal skin will be measured in situ using the Fluobeam(TM) infrared imaging system.
Time frame: 48 hours post-dose
Immunohistochemistry will be used to measure the expression of other biomarkers of response, including Annexin A2, Ki67 and MMP2 (matrix metalloproteinase-2), in normal and tumor tissue.
