About this study
Official title: A Phase II Prospective, Open-Label, Single-Arm Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Spatially Fractionated Radiotherapy Combined With Immunotherapy in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
Lattice radiation therapy (LRT) is a spatially fractionated radiotherapy technique that creates alternating high - and low - dose areas within a tumor to enhance local control and reduce toxicity to surrounding tissues. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining LRT with immunotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, through a Phase II clinical trial. Patients will receive specific - dose irradiation using a medical linear accelerator. Within the GTV of the largest tumor, spheres (0.5 - 3 cm in diameter) will be created as high - dose targets (LRT targets), spaced 2.0 - 5.0 cm apart. The LRT targets must be drawn within the GTV, avoiding blood vessels, with a margin of at least 1 cm from the GTV margin, and a volume ratio of 1% - 10% of the GTV. For a single lesion, the D95 of the GTV will be ≥1 Gy/fraction, and the D95 of the LRT target will be 8 - 12 Gy/fraction, with minimal possible single - fraction doses to organs at risk. All other irradiated metastases will receive low - dose radiotherapy (100 - 300 cGy × 5 fractions), except for brain and bone metastases, which will be treated with palliative radiotherapy as per clinical routine. Immunotherapy will be administered during or within one week after radiotherapy.
Read the detailed description
This Phase II clinical trial investigates the combination of lattice radiation therapy (LRT) and immunotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. LRT, a spatially fractionated radiotherapy technique, creates alternating high - and low - dose regions within the tumor to enhance local control and reduce toxicity to surrounding tissues.
Eligible patients will receive treatment using a medical linear accelerator. Within the largest tumor's gross tumor volume (GTV), spheres (0.5 - 3 cm in diameter) will be created as high - dose targets (LRT targets), spaced 2.0 - 5.0 cm apart. The LRT targets must be drawn within the GTV, avoiding blood vessels, with a margin of at least 1 cm from the GTV edge and a volume ratio of 1% - 10% of the GTV.
For a single lesion, the D95 of the GTV will be ≥1 Gy per fraction, and the D95 of the LRT target will be 8 - 12 Gy per fraction, while keeping the single - fraction dose to organs at risk as low as possible. All other irradiated metastases will receive low - dose radiotherapy at 100 - 300 cGy × 5 fractions. Brain and bone metastases will be treated with palliative radiotherapy as per clinical routine and are not included in the low - dose radiotherapy. Immunotherapy will be administered during or within one week after radiotherapy.
The study will monitor patients for treatment - related toxicities, immune - related adverse events, and assess treatment efficacy through imaging studies and biomarker analysis. The results will provide insights into the effectiveness and safety of combining LRT with immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing lattice radiation therapy in people with Solid Cancers and Radiotherapy, run by Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital at 3 sites 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 18 inclusion and 12 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 29 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites 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.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
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 Ningbo Liu, Doctor (+8615602036608, liuningbo@tjmuch.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Assessed at 6 weeks post-treatment initiation). 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 29 Apr 2026.
