Irradiation of Large Lung Tumors or Two or More Lung Metastases Simultaneously
- Conditions
- Lung CancerMetastatic Lung Cancer
- Interventions
- Radiation: Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT)
- Registration Number
- NCT01543672
- Lead Sponsor
- The Netherlands Cancer Institute
- Brief Summary
Treatment of larger tumor volumes or ≥ 2 lung metastases simultaneously in lung cancer patient using Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) in a mean-lung dose escalation study.
- Detailed Description
A phase I/II multicenter trial will be conducted in patients with medically inoperable with peripheral non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) \> 5 cm without lymph node involvement (group A) or medically with ≥ 2 or more lung metastases (group B). Radiation pneumonitis is expected to be dose-limiting in these patients and there is evidence that the incidence is predicted by the mean lung dose (MLD). The MLD escalation will be performed separately in both patient groups, using a time-to-event continual reassessment method (TITE-CRM). All patients will receive 3-5 fractions SBRT to the lung tumor(s), with a minimum mean PTV dose ≥ 42 Gy. Fraction size may be downscaled based on the MLD constraint.

Group Intervention Description SBRT group A Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) escalate MLD in medically inoperable patients with tumors larger than 5 cm in diameter (primary or solitary metastases) SBRT group B Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) Escalate the MLD in patients with ≥ 2 lung metastases
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method MLD 4 years The assessment of the maximum mean lung dose that can be safely treated with SBRT and that is associated with a 20% probability of the DLT.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method loco-regional control 4 years Determine the local control and regional control as a function of the mean lung dose, the largest toxicity effects as a function of the MLD and the overall survival.
Quality of life assessment 2 years valuate the increase or decrease of physical discomfort.
overall survival 5 years Determine the local control and regional control as a function of the mean lung dose, the largest toxicity effects as a function of the MLD and the overall survival.
