Study Overview

Brief Summary

Ufoguide is a prospective single arm open study to assess the feasibility of a new type of HIFU system to treat bone tumors.

HIFU is classically delivered by a transducer integrated in the MRI table. This study assesses a new type of approach in which the HIFU transducer is manually placed on the skin of the patient, under the assistance of optical navigation, and held in place by MR-compatible passive arms.

The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of heating the tumor accurately with this new HIFU system. The evaluation and monitoring of the treatment will be performed by MR thermometry.

Secondary endpoints include the evaluation of clinical efficacy, quality of life and safety.

Detailed Description

Ufoguide is a prospective single arm open study to assess the feasibility of a new type of HIFU system for the treatment of painful metastases (palliative intent) and osteoid osteoma (curative intent).

HIFU is classically delivered by a transducer integrated in the MRI table. This study assesses a new type of approach in which the HIFU transducer is manually placed on the skin of the patient and held in place by MR-compatible passive arms. Optical infrared navigation is used to help the physician with the positioning of the HIFU transducer.

The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of heating the tumor accurately with this new HIFU system. The evaluation and control of the treatment will be performed by Proton Resonance Frequency Shift (PRFS) MR thermometry.

Secondary endpoints include the evaluation of clinical efficacy, quality of life and safety.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Device feasibility

Time Frame: Assessed in real time during the procedure

The device feasibility is defined by the ability of the device to induce a hyperthermia on the tumor

Secondary Outcomes

  • Safety :number of patients with complications and characterization of complications(day 1, day 5 and day 30)
  • Clinical efficacy: - in palliative intent by a decrease ≤3 on visual analogic scale - in curative intent (osteoid osteoma) by a total disappearance in pain(Before intervention and day 1, day 5 and day 30)
  • Quality of life using the EORTC (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) quality of life questionnaire(Before intervention and day 30)
