- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Tumor volume change from baseline during neoadjuvant treatment Baseline, mid-point (~3 months), and end of therapy (4-6 months) Tumor volume will be measured with KBCT imaging at the beginning of the therapy (baseline), mid-point of the therapy (about 3 months after the treatment starts) and end of therapy (about 4-6 months after the treatment starts). The volume change from the baseline during the treatment will be recorded.
Adverse Events will be recorded as a measure of safety.
