Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
An injectable ten percent solution of rose bengal disodium, an iodinated fluorescein derivative, with potential antineoplastic and radiosensitizing activities. When injected into tumor tissue, PV-10 specifically targets and concentrates in tumor cells, producing cytotoxic singlet oxygen when exposed to ionizing radiation. In addition, PV-10 may stimulate an anti-tumor immune response.

Pv-10 has been investigated in 3 clinical trials, of which 3 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating pv-10, 2 are phase 1 (2 open) and 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (1 open).

SSTR1 Expression, SSTR2 Expression, and SSTR3 Expression are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for pv-10 clinical trials.

Malignant solid tumor, melanoma, and neuroendocrine carcinoma are the most common diseases being investigated in pv-10 clinical trials [2].
