Risk-adapted Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Early Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Using the VERO Stereotactic Body Radio Therapy System

Phase 2

• Conditions: Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma

• Registration Number: NCT02224547
• Lead Sponsor: Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to perform prospective data analysis on tumor response in terms of local tumor control after 2 years, potential acute and late toxicity and survival in patients with non-metastatic, non-small-cell lung cancer treated by radiotherapy that are medically inoperable due to coexisting comorbidities or that refuse surgery. SBRT regimens used will be 4 fractions of 12 Gy or 3 fractions of 17 Gy depending on tumor location in a risk-adapted approach.

Study & Design

• Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Design: SINGLE_GROUP

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Toxicity of grade 3+ as assessed by NCI CTCAE v4.0	From start of SBRT until 1 year. After 1 year until end of follow-up for late toxicity	To monitor potential toxicity in patients with stage T1,T2,T3 N0 non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), treated with primary stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Time to local progression	every 3 months for the first 2 years. From 3 to 5 years every 6 months. After From start of SBRT until date of death, regional fialure of last follow-up. Aanalysis occurs when all patients have been potentially followed for 24 months.	Overall survival, local progression free survival, disease free survival, time from start of SBRT to death, local, regional or disseminated recurrence.
