Phase 2
Recruiting
Conditions
The Aim of the Study is to Evaluate the Efficacy of Photodynamic Therapy as an
Adjuvant Therapy on the Clinical Outcome of Patients With Desmoid Tumors After
Surgical Resection
Interventions
Drug: 5-AMINOLEVULINIC ACID (5-ALA), is a non fluorescent prodrug.
Registration Number
NCT01898416
Lead Sponsor
michal roll
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative 5-ALA oral administration and subsequently intraoperative tumor bed phototherapy with red light laser, as an adjuvant therapy on the 3 years rate of local tumor recurrence in patients with desmoid tumors. To evaluate the Safety of 5-ALA administration. 5 years local recurrence rate.

GroupInterventionDescription
5-AminoLevulinicc Acid5-AMINOLEVULINIC ACID (5-ALA), is a non fluorescent prodrug.consists of 60mg/kg 5-ALA prepared solution given orally, 3-5 hours before induction of anesthesia and surgical tumor resection. Red light laser given by a Dye laser system, wave length of 635nm, in s dose of 150J/cm for 2000 seconds (33 minutes) will be given to tumor bed. In the case of positive margins (for tumor presence), a second surgical intervention followed by second 60mg/kg 5-ALA administration will be performed.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary endpoint is a binary variable where each patient is classified as a recurrence or a not recurrence case and will be determined by calculating the proportion of recurrence versus non recurrence ratesthree years
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To assess the safety of study drug administration in the study population. To assess the 5 years local recurrence rate.five years

Data from all subjects who receive any study drug will be included in the safety analyses. The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE whenever possible. Adverse events will be summarized by worst NCI CTC grade. Adverse events classified as NCI CTCAE Grade 3 or Grade 4, study-drug-related events, and serious adverse events will be summarized separately. Laboratory data will be graded according to NCI CTCAE severity grade.
