This is indocyanine green, a glowing dye, as developed by Renew Pharmaceuticals for liver cancer. The FDA has given it orphan drug status as a diagnostic for managing hepatocellular carcinoma, the commonest liver cancer.
Renew Pharmaceuticals supplies indocyanine green imaging agents under the Diagnostic Green brand. On 30 September 2026 the FDA granted orphan drug designation to indocyanine green as a diagnostic for the management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), sponsored by Renew Pharmaceuticals Limited. A designation is not an approval, and the record does not describe the planned use or trials; this record carries the designation only.
Indocyanine green is a dye that fluoresces under near-infrared light; given into a vein it is taken up and cleared by the liver, which is the property used to show liver tissue and tumours during surgery.
