Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 70 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Older adult

Study population: All patients, able to provide informed consent, aged ≥70 diagnosed with T1-3N0M0 NSCLC considered medically inoperable at a multidisciplinary setting and therefore candidates for SBRT. 130 patients will be included in a period of 24 months.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with cytologically or histologically proven non-small cell lung cancer
  • Stage T1-3N0M0
  • ≥ 70 years old
  • In a multidisciplinary setting the patient is considered medically inoperable, too frail for operation due to age and/or comorbidity or that the patient refuse surgery and therefore candidate for SBRT.

Who cannot join

  • Missing histology/cytology
  • Another current malignancy
  • Higher staging at treatment planning
  • Not able to provide informed consent
  • Do not speak or understand Danish

About this study

Official title: LIVELUNG - Impact of CGA on QoL, Overall Survival and the Need for Admission in Patients Diagnosed With Localized NSCLC Treated With SBRT - a National Randomized Study

Older patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) often die from other causes than lung cancer due to age-related comorbidities. This national randomized study will include 130 patients throughout 5 Danish cancer centres and investigate if a comprehensive geriatric intervention (CGA) when added upfront to SBRT for patients with localized NSCLC will have an impact on quality of life (QoL), overall survival, physical functionality and unplanned hospital admissions.

If an upfront CGA improves patients' general health status, this study could lead to implementation of a CGA in standard clinical practice as well as further research on older patients receiving radiotherapy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Comprehensive Geriatric AssessmentOther

    Comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is defined as a multidisciplinary diagnostic and treatment process that identifies medical, psychosocial, and functional capabilities of an older adult in order to develop a coordinated plan to maximize overall health with aging.

What is being measured

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

  1. Quality of Life (EQ-5D)

    Questionnaire with 5 dimensions each with 5 (1-5) levels representing the health status of the patient and the patients self-rated health status on a scale from 0-100 (EQ VAS). The score of the 5 dimensions can be converted into a single index value 0-1 with higher values indicating poorer health status.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    The time from treatment to death, regardless of disease recurrence

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Quality of Life (EQ-5D)

    Questionnaire with 5 dimensions each with 5 (1-5) levels representing the health status of the patient and the patients self-rated health status on a scale from 0-100 (EQ VAS). The score of the 5 dimensions can be converted into a single index value 0-1 with higher values indicating poorer health status.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Quality of Life (EQ-5D)

    Questionnaire with 5 dimensions each with 5 (1-5) levels representing the health status of the patient and the patients self-rated health status on a scale from 0-100 (EQ VAS). The score of the 5 dimensions can be converted into a single index value 0-1 with higher values indicating poorer health status.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Quality of Life (EQ-5D)

    Questionnaire with 5 dimensions each with 5 (1-5) levels representing the health status of the patient and the patients self-rated health status on a scale from 0-100 (EQ VAS). The score of the 5 dimensions can be converted into a single index value 0-1 with higher values indicating poorer health status.

    Measured: 9 months

  5. Hand-grip strength

    Hand-grip strength measured in kilo using a JAMAR hand dynamometer

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Timed-up-and-go (TUG)

    TUG consists of timing (seconds) a patient getting up from a chair from the sitting to the bipedal position, walking three meters, turning, returning, and sitting on the chair again

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Chair-stand-test (CST)

    The CST involves recording the number of "stands" from a chair a person can complete in 30 seconds

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Unplanned Admissions

    Time to first unplanned admission

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy, run by Odense University Hospital at 4 sites in Denmark.

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.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Denmark. 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 Kristian K Bentsen, Dr.med. (004528735210, kristian.kirkelund.bentsen3@rsyd.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of Life (EQ-5D) (time frame: 12 months). 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 26 Jun 2023.
