5-ALA and FDA approval for glioma surgery
Open accessAbstract
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA; Gleolan®; photonamic GmbH and Co. KG) for use as an intraoperative optical imaging agent in patients with suspected high-grade gliomas (HGGs) in 2017. This was the first ever optical imaging agent approved as an adjunct for the visualization of malignant tissue during surgery for brain tumors. The approval occurred a decade after European approval and a multicenter, phase III randomized trial which confirmed that surgeons using 5-ALA fluorescence-guided surgery as a surgical adjunct could achieve more complete resections of tumors in HGG patients and better patient outcomes than with conventional microsurgery. Much of the delay in the US FDA approval of 5-ALA stemmed from its conceptualization as a therapeutic and not as an intraoperative imaging tool. We chronicle the challenges encountered during the US FDA approval process to highlight a new standard for approval of intraoperative optical imaging agents in brain tumors.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“This landmark clinical trial together with additional clinical studies conducted afterward provided enough evidence for the FDA to grant the approval of ALA hydrochloride (Gleolan) in 2017 [43]. The approval allows the use of ALA as an intraoperative imaging probe to facilitate tumor resection in patients with high-grade gliomas (grade III or IV) following a standard oral administration of 20 mg/k”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Because ALA-mediated PpIX fluorescence in tumor tissues is able to provide surgeons with a real-time guide for tumor diagnosis and margin assessment, ALA has been used as an intraoperative probe to facilitate tumor resection [43].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
