About this study

Official title: Pilot Study Evaluating Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Adaptive Radiation Therapy (ART) for Pulmonary Metastases From Soft Tissue Sarcomas

This is a prospective study to document the local control rates with SBRT specifically for pulmonary metastases from soft tissue sarcoma. This study will prospectively document acute and late toxicity, quality of life (QoL), tumor control, and survival.

Read the detailed description

A total of no more than 20 people are expected to participate in this study at the Medical College of Wisconsin/Froedtert Hospital. Patients will be followed for three years.

The usual treatment for sarcomas that spread to the lungs is to remove the cancer with surgery. Patients who cannot have surgery or prefer not to have surgery, can receive radiation therapy. Standard radiation therapy involves several weeks of daily treatment sessions, although it is not as effective as surgery and may seriously damage normal surrounding lung tissue. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a radiation treatment that gives fewer but higher doses of radiation than standard radiation. SBRT is used to treat metastases to the lung from many types of cancer but has not been used very often with patients who have metastatic disease to their lungs from sarcomas.

The purpose of this study is to test the possibility of SBRT to the lung for metastatic disease to the lung. This information will be used to find out if there are factors that can predict recovery or outcome of patients with metastatic disease to the lung from sarcoma. SBRT will consist of 1 to 3 treatments per week for a total of 3 to 5 treatments to each tumor until therapy is complete. After SBRT is completed, follow-up exams will occur 4-6 weeks from the completion of radiation treatment, every 3 months in year 1 and every 6 months for 2 years.

Stereotactic Body Radiation TherapyOtherArms: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) with Adaptive Radiation Therapy (ART) for all patients. A non-randomized study. Patients must have 1-5 pulmonary metastases all less than 5 cm in size. Pathologic confirmation of primary soft tissue sarcoma. All lesions to receive 3-5 fractions to each tumor. Treatments delivered with > 10 Gy per fraction will have a minimum of 48 hour interfraction interval. For treatments with ≤ 10 Gy per fraction will have a minimum 24 hour interfraction interval. Treatments will be ideally completed over 14 days for 3 fraction treatments and over 21 days for >5 fraction treatment schedules.
Receives: Radiation: SBRT

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Adverse Events of Grade ≥ 3 by CTCAE Criteria.

    This measure (number of adverse events of grade ≥ 3 by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) criteria) will provide information regarding the acute toxicity of SBRT for < 5 pulmonary metastases from soft tissue sarcoma..The CTCAE criteria provide a standardized description of adverse events including guidelines for grading severity. The guidelines can be viewed at: https://ctep.cancer.gov/protocoldevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm.

    Measured: 6 weeks post SBRT

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Subjects Experiencing Locoregional Recurrences.

    This measure (number of subjects experiencing locoregional recurrences) will provide information regarding locoregional control. Locoregional recurrence means any new or renewed tumor growth of any size observed by an imaging technology that is located at or adjacent to a prior treatment site.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SBRT in people with Stage IV Adult Soft Tissue Sarcoma and Sarcoma,Soft Tissue, run by Medical College of Wisconsin at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Feb 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Adverse Events of Grade ≥ 3 by CTCAE Criteria. (time frame: 6 weeks post SBRT). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Feb 2023.
