简要总结
This pilot clinical trial studies stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. SBRT is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Chemoembolization kills tumor cells by carrying drugs directly into blood vessels near the tumors and then blocking the blood flow to allow a higher concentration of the drug to reach the tumor for a longer period of time. SBRT may make TACE more beneficial by increasing blood flow to the tumor, which may allow more of the TACE chemotherapy to enter the tumor. Giving SBRT with TACE may work better in treating patients with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To establish the feasibility of completing SBRT followed by TACE in a 2 day time period.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine acute tumor perfusion changes after SBRT using functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (magnetic resonance [MR]-dynamic contrast enhanced [DCE]/perfusion weighted imaging [PWI], MR-diffusion, blood oxygen level dependent [BOLD] sequences).
II. To establish safety and tolerability of this regimen. III. To determine overall response rates (using modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] criteria), including objective response rate (partial response [PR] + complete response [CR]) and clinical benefit rate (stable disease [SD] + PR + CR) at 1, 3, and 6 months after TACE.

- •Must have 1-3 liver lesions amenable to SBRT with tumor size < 15 cm (single lesion or sum)
- •Must be able to undergo two MRI scans, one before study treatment begins and another shortly after SBRT
- •Patients with extrahepatic disease, portal hypertension, or bilobar disease are allowed
- •Normal renal function (creatinine < 1.5 mg/dL)

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility of SBRT in combination with TACE, measured by the number of patients able to tolerate all study procedures
时间窗: 2 days
Determined on the intent-to-treat principle. Any treatment delivery difficulties that arise that could impede successful delivery of this therapy sequence will be evaluated. The capability of the Ohio State University (OSU) system and communication between departments will be analyzed and deemed effective if it facilitates the successful treatment completion of all patients.
