Trial summary

The investigators tries a new method to delineating the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx, and use the head-and-neck region to test whether the method can to create a good IMRT plan, and alleviate the oral radiation injury, reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

About this study

Official title: A New Delineation Approach for Oral Cavity, Oropharynx, Larynx and Hypopharynx in Intensity-modulated Radiation Treatment for Head and Neck Cancer

The investigators tries a new method to delineating the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx, and use the head-and-neck region to test whether the method can to create a good IMRT plan, and alleviate the oral radiation injury, reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

Read the detailed description

Purpose: To assess the dosimetric effect of new delineation approach for oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx in intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT) treatment planning for head and neck cancer.

Methods: Twenty head and neck cancer patients were treated by IMRT. Target volumes and several organs at risk were delineated with Corvus6.3 treatment planning system. An investigative IMRT plan was generated based on a standard treatment planning protocol, but used a new delineation approach for oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx. Plans were exported to treatment planning system for quantitative analysis of dose volume parameters. Variables assessed included: maximum oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx dose, equivalent uniform dose of the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx (EUD), mean oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx dose, mean organs at risks (OARs) doses, and dose homogeneity inside the target volumes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose distribution

    maximum oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx dose, equivalent uniform dose of the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx (EUD), mean oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx dose, mean organs at risks (OARs) doses, and dose homogeneity inside the target volumes.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing "Oropharyngeal mucosa", oropharynx and oropharynx and "oropharyngeal mucosa" in people with Head and Neck Cancer and Radiotherapy, run by Hebei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 17 May 2024. 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 China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Dose distribution (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 17 May 2024.
