FMISO-based Adaptive Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer

FMISO-based Adaptive Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer - a Prospective Multicenter Study


Sponsor

University Hospital Olomouc

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

Apr 20, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Hypoxia occurs in about 80% of head and neck tumors. Based on experimental and clinical data, hypoxia is a useful parameter for pretherapeutic stratification. These radioresistant regions can be detected with FMISO PET/CT. Moreover, hypoxic subvolumes of tumors can be evolving as target volumes for radiotherapy ("dose painting") in hypoxia imaging-based dose escalation.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria5

  • Pathologically proven new diagnosis of oropharyngeal p16 negative, or laryngeal, hypopharyngeal, oral cavity (independent of p16) squamous cell carcinoma of clinical stage III, IV confined to head and neck area
  • Evaluable tumor burden assessed by computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging, based on RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours) version 1.1
  • Eligibiity for definitive chemoradiation or hyperfractionated accelerated radiotherapy
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
  • Adequate kidney and liver function

Exclusion Criteria9

  • Prior surgical treatment - any surgery of primary tumor or involved nodes or prior surgical debulking apart from surgery with diagnostic intention (e.g. open biopsy if necessary)
  • Prior systemic therapy, targeted therapy, radiotherapy treatment for head and neck cancer
  • Cancer outside of the oropharynx, larynx, and hypopharynx or oral cavity, such as nasopharyngeal, sinus, other para-nasal, or unknown primary head and neck cancer
  • Known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis or any distant metastasis
  • Known active Hepatitis B or C
  • History of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
  • History of a diagnosed and/or treated hematologic or primary solid tumor malignancy, unless in remission for at least 5 years prior to randomization
  • Previous allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplant
  • Active infection requiring systemic therapy
