About this study

Official title: Large Segmentation Radiotherapy±Deep Inspiratory Breath Hold for Left Sided Breast Cancer, A Real-World Study

The study is a single-center, prospective, non-randomized controlled study. The primary objective is to examine the clinical outcomes of utilizing Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) in conjunction with hypo-fractionated radiotherapy for patients diagnosed with left-sided breast cancer with a particular focus on its potential to reduce the incidence of cardiac-related clinical and subclinical events.Participants will revieve large segmentation sadiotherapy ± DIBH for left breast cancer and be followed up to gather their clinical cardiac imformation.

What participants receive

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

  • Large Segmentation RadiotherapyRadiation

    Large Segmentation Radiotherapy±Deep Inspiratory Breath Hold

  • DIBHDevice

    Deep Inspiration Breath Hold

  • Surface guided radiation therapyDevice

    The technology uses modern 3D camera technology to help track and monitor patient movements during set-up and treatment.

  • laser alignmentDevice

    Laser systems for virtual simulation and patient positioning in radiotherapy

  • free breathingBehavioural

    Patients breathe calmly while radiotherapy instead of holding their breath.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of subclinical and clinical cardiac events

    1. Clinical events: newly emerged cardiac diseases after radiotherapy include acute and delayed pericarditis, pericardial effusion and constrictive pericarditis, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, cardiac valve disease and arrhythmia.
    2. Subclinical events: new electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities, echocardiographic abnormalities, and abnormal elevations of cardiac enzymes after radiotherapy.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Survival

    Localized regional control rate ,overall survival and disease-related survival.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Cosmetic results

    cosmetic evaluation(breast-conserving surgery). Excellent: The treated mammary gland is indistinguishable or only slightly different in size, shape, and texture from the contralateral mammary gland. There may be mild thickening of the breast or skin, or scar tissue, but not enough to change the appearance of the colored gland.

    Good: The treated breast is not mildly asymmetric in size or shape compared to the contralateral breast. Thickening or scar tissue in the breast causes only Fair: The treated breast is significantly different in size and shape from the contralateral breast. Such changes involving 1/4 or less of the treated breast are significantly different in appearance from the contralateral breast. The change involves more than 1/4 of the breast tissue.

    Poor: The treated breast is significantly different in appearance from the contralateral breast. The change involves more than 1/4 of the breast tissue or the treated breast has severe sequelae.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Life quality

    Assessment of patient quality of life by EORTC QLQ-BR23 , a higher score means worse life quality.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Large Segmentation Radiotherapy, DIBH and Surface guided radiation therapy in people with Breast Cancer, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital 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 9 inclusion and 10 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Oct 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Xiaorong Hou (+86 13811963013, hxr_pumch@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of subclinical and clinical cardiac events (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 28 Oct 2024.
