I-125 Seeds Implantation in the Treatment of Recurrent Lung Cancer After Radiotherapy

Recruiting

• Conditions: Brachytherapy; Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
• Interventions: Radiation: 3D-printing Template-assisted CT-guided I-125 Seeds Implantation

• Registration Number: NCT04071418
• Lead Sponsor: Peking University Third Hospital

Brief Summary

Patients with recurrence after radiotherapy are often encountered in clinical practice.Patients with recurrence after radiotherapy are less likely to undergo surgery or secondary radiotherapy, and the guidelines recommend only systemic therapy, although the effective rate is relatively low.For patients with local recurrence without distant metastasis, local treatment is still significant.Radioactive I-125 Seed Implantation (RISI) treatment is to I-125 Radioactive nuclide directly inside the implanted tumors, make its rays to continuous destruction of tumor cells, have inside the tumor target high dose, low dose of normal tissue around, and its radiation is low dose rate, in theory, more conducive to the protection of the normal tissue, more suitable for salvage treatment of recurrence after radiotherapy lesions.Some retrospective studies on RISI treatment of NSCLC showed that the local control rate was up to 25%-80%, and there were few reports of toxic and side effects, suggesting that it had good efficiency and safety.Therefore, for patients with recurrent NSCLC after chest radiotherapy, RISI may be considered.And template technology, 3 d printing is a new kind of technology in recent years, can be individualized and human body surface, the guide posts on the the direction of the puncture needle can be accurately controlled, the current data show that in the template with CT guided by solid tumors as well had significantly higher accuracy, as the actual target dose of basic postoperative can reach the design request of the preoperative planning, so the application of 3D printing template helps to further improve the operation efficiency and safety, also has potential promotion effect to curative effect.The purpose of this study was: (1) to observe the efficacy, toxic and side effects of RISI in the treatment of recurrent NSCLC after radiotherapy under the guidance of 3D printing template assisted CT, and to evaluate its safety and effectiveness;(2) to explore the relationship between the efficacy, toxicity and side effects of RISI dose in the treatment of recurrent NSCLC after radiotherapy;(3) analyze the relevant influencing factors affecting the effect/toxicity of RISI in the treatment of recurrent NSCLC after radiotherapy.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study was to observe the efficacy and adverse reactions of RISI in the treatment of recurrent NSCLC after radiotherapy, and to evaluate its safety and efficacy.To explore the relationship between the efficacy, toxicity and side effects of recurrent NSCLC treated with different RISI doses after radiotherapy.To analyze the relevant influencing factors affecting the efficacy/toxicity of RISI in the treatment of recurrent NSCLC after radiotherapy.

This study is a non-randomized, prospective, single-arm, cohort study.Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled consecutively in the order of admission and treatment, and a total of 30 patients were expected to be enrolled.The therapeutic dose range of I-125 was 140-160Gy, and the prescribed dose was intended to be divided into 15 cases of 140-150Gy and 150-160Gy, respectively. The specific situation was subject to the actual postoperative verified dose.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
I-125 Seeds Implantation	3D-printing Template-assisted CT-guided I-125 Seeds Implantation	All the enrolled patients were treated with CT-guided radioactive I-125 seeds implantation assisted by 3D printing template. Prescription dose 140-160gy.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Local tumor control rate	Outcomes will be followed up every 2-3 months after enrollment. The total follow-up time is 2 years.	The time from the date of seeds implantation to the date of recurrence of the implanted tumor or the date of last observation.
Incidence of adverse events	Outcomes will be followed up every 2-3 months after enrollment. The total follow-up time is 2 years.	The adverse events are evaluated by the common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE). The rate of each adverse event will be measured.

Secondary Outcome Measures
