About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Curative Proton Beam Therapy for Patients With Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer

Proton alone therapy is performed

-> 5 times a week, 7200 cGy / 15 fractions for 3 weeks total

Read the detailed description

This clinical trial is a prospective, single-organ, phase II clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of curative proton therapy for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer diagnosed histologically as adenocarcinoma. Patients who meet the selection criteria should be selected, signed for consent, and treated 5 times a week for 7200 cGy / 15 fractions alone for 3 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. 2-year local control ratio of the treated liver area

    The primary goal of this study is the 2-year local control rate of liver lesions treated with proton therapy. It is judged that the local control rate is improved when the liver metastases of colorectal cancer using conventional X-ray is assumed to have 2-year local control rate of 60% and the 2-year local control rate of proton therapy is set to 80% or more

    Measured: Time Frame: up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 5-year survival rate of treated patients

    To evaluate whether high doses of proton therapy can replace conventional surgical resection. From date of initiation of proton therapy until the date of documented date of death from any cause, assessed up to 5 years

    Measured: documented data of death, up to 5 years.

  2. 5-year disease-free survival rate of treated patients

    To evaluate whether high doses of proton therapy can replace conventional surgical resection. From date of initiation of proton therapy until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years.

    Measured: documented date of progression or death, up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing curative proton therapy in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by National Cancer Center, Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2019. 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 South Korea. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Dae Yong Kim, M.D. (+82-31-920-1721, radiopia@ncc.re.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

2-year local control ratio of the treated liver area (time frame: Time Frame: up to 2 years). 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 21 Aug 2019.
