Adaptive Radiation for Abdominopelvic Metastases

Adaptive Radiation for Abdominopelvic Metastases (ARAM)


Sponsor

Fox Chase Cancer Center

Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Aug 1, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Single arm Phase I trial of adaptive stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) for abdominopelvic metastases. Adaptive SBRT will allow for escalation of the prescription dose and target coverage while maintaining grade 3+ toxicity no greater than 10%. Subjects with metastatic cancer to the abdomen or pelvis requiring local control or palliation will be enrolled.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests adaptive radiation therapy — a highly precise form of radiation that adjusts to changes in the tumor's shape and location over time — for patients with cancer that has spread to the abdomen or pelvis. The goal is to precisely target tumors in these regions with fewer side effects. **You may be eligible if...** - You are over 18 with any type of solid cancer that has spread to the abdomen or pelvis - You have at least one untreated tumor in your abdomen or pelvis that can be measured on scans - Your health is good enough for radiation (ECOG 0–1) - Your estimated survival is at least 12 months - Your blood counts and organ function are within acceptable ranges **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have peritoneal carcinomatosis (cancer spreading throughout the belly lining) - You have 6 or more active metastatic sites - You have cancer outside the abdomen/pelvis that is actively progressing - You have received prior radiation to any target tumor site - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You have uncontrolled infection, heart failure, or psychiatric illness that affects compliance Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

RADIATIONAdaptive Stereotactic Body Radiation

Radiation therapy is given following generation of planning imaging at the time of simulation. A recent development has been diagnostic quality onboard imaging incorporated within radiation treatment machines. The incorporation of onboard imaging into standard practice has allowed the use Stereotactic Body Radiation (SBRT), which is a precise radiation technique that allows safe delivery of ablative radiation doses. More recently, the development of improved technologies and software have allowed radiation plans to be generated and delivered that are specific to the anatomy of the very moment the patient is being treated. This novel ability to adjust the radiation treatment plan based upon real time imaging is termed adaptive radiation therapy. This study will utilize the novel adaptive radiation therapy technology in a patient population with technically challenging disease to deliver ablative radiation with an appropriately low toxicity rate.
