About this study
Official title: Judging MR Simulation Procedures: A Phase I-II Study of the Use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Simulation in the Planning of Radiation Treatments
This is a master protocol for a prospective Phase I-II study evaluating feasibility and efficacy of incorporating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation into the planning of radiation treatments.
Read the detailed description
This is a Phase I/II clinical trial. A Phase I clinical trial tests the feasibility and safety of an investigational intervention. "Investigational" means that the process targeting high doses of radiation to the tumor based on MRI is still being studied. This research study is a Feasibility Study, which means it is the first-time investigators at this institution are examining this type of MR-guided dose planning. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared MRI planning for use.
- In Phase I of this study, will prospectively determine the feasibility of using an MRI simulator to plan radiation therapy.
- In Phase II, the efficacy of adjusting RT based on MRI simulation will be explored, either by utilizing an MRI-simulation and synthetic CT to plan treatment or by dose-painting based on functional MRI data
- Being tested
- MRI Simulator, Radiation Therapy
- Keywords
- Prostate Cancer, Recurrent Adenocarcinoma, Liver Cancer, Head and Neck Cancer
- Medical subject headings
- Prostatic Neoplasms, Adenocarcinoma, Liver Neoplasms, Head and Neck Neoplasms
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
MRI SimulatorDevice
Radiation mapping to define the target for radiation.acquiring MR data at the specified timepoint in a patient's care plan and ability to identify the radiation target and develop a radiation therapy plan on the MR data.
Radiation TherapyRadiation
In Phase I, radiation will be institutional standard per disease site. In Phase II, either radiation according to MR-based dose painting or adjusted RT. These adjusted doses and/or RT will vary per disease site and will be pre-specified in the subprotocols.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Feasibility of acquiring MRI simulation prior to radiation therapy planning
Feasibility is defined as successfully enrolling patients, successfully acquiring MR data at the specified timepoint in a patient's care plan and ability to identify the radiation target and develop a radiation therapy plan on the MR data
Measured: 1 Year
Proportion of patients with QOL decline exceeding 2 x MID
12 points; MID of the EPIC-26 urinary irritative/obstructive domain is 6 points) measured by EPIC-26 urinary irritation/obstruction domain from baseline to 2 years
Measured: baseline up to 24 months
Secondary outcomes (8)
Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0
Measured: 24 Months
MRI evidence of disease at 2 years from treatment initiation.
Measured: 24 Months
PSA progression (nadir + 2) at 2 years from treatment initiation
Measured: 24 months
Progression free survival
Measured: 24 months
Change in target volumes between CT simulation and MRI simulation
To ascertain the effects of MRI simulation on size of target volumes and OAR, the volume (cc) will be compared between CT vs MR simulation by t-test for normal data or Wilcoxon signed-rank test if data does not follow a normal distribution. The extent of overlap calculated with the Sorensen-Dice coefficient and Hausdorff distance.
Measured: 24 Months
Change in coverage of target volumes between CT simulation and MRI simulation
The dose to OARS using the CT-simulation and MR-simulation derived plans will be compared using the t-test for normal data or Wilcoxon signed-rank test if data does not follow a normal distribution.
Measured: 24 Months
Change in dose to organs at risk (OARs) between CT simulation and MRI simulation
The dose to OARS using the CT-simulation and MR-simulation derived plans will be compared using the t-test for normal data or Wilcoxon signed-rank test if data does not follow a normal distribution.
Measured: 24 Months
Performance of the synthetic CT in RT planning
To assess performance of the synthetic CT in RT planning, fluence patterns from the synthetic CT plan will be copied onto the CT simulation electron density grids and dose recalculated. Accuracy of synthetic CT dose calculations to target volumes and OARs will be assessed with a goal of <1% difference in target and OAR dose between synthetic CT plans and CT simulation plans
Measured: 24 Months
