Adaptive Radiotherapy and MRIs Based on Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma

Adaptive Radiotherapy Based on Multi-Parametric Diffusion- and Perfusion-weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma


Sponsor

Columbia University

Enrollment

20 participants

Start Date

Jan 30, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if performing additional Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) scans of the subjects' brain during each week of the radiation treatment of their high-grade glioma will help improve the radiation treatment.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests whether using real-time MRI scans to adapt and personalize radiation therapy during treatment leads to better outcomes for patients with newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumors (glioblastoma and related cancers). **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older with a confirmed high-grade glioma (glioblastoma, anaplastic astrocytoma, or anaplastic oligodendroglioma) - You have a good functional status (Karnofsky score of 70 or above) - You are planned to receive standard radiation therapy (about 60 Gy in 30–33 sessions, or a shorter course if over 65) - You have had a negative pregnancy test if applicable **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have already received radiation or other treatment for this tumor (aside from biopsy or removal surgery) - There is evidence of cancer spread outside the brain - You have had another cancer in the last 2 years (non-melanoma skin cancer is OK) Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

OTHERAdaptive Radiotherapy

Each patient will undergo a brain MRI at the following time points: 1. Baseline- within 2 weeks prior to the start of chemo-RT, 2. Week #1- on Fractions # 4 or 5 3. Week #2- between Fractions # 6-10 (at least 5 days after the Week 1 MRI) 4. Week #3- between Fractions # 11-15 (at least 5 days after the Week 2 MRI) 5. Week #4- between Fractions # 16-20 gadolinium contrast (at least 5 days after the Week 3 MRI) 6. Week #5- on Fractions # 24 or 25 (after the start of the Conedown) 7. Week #6- +/- 3 days of Fraction #30 (end of RT) Patients receiving hypofractionated radiotherapy will undergo a brain MRI at the following time points: 1. Baseline- within 2 weeks prior to the start of your standard of care chemotherapy radiation treatment (chemo-RT), 2. Week #1 - on Fractions #4 or 5 3. Week #2 - between Fractions #6-10 (at least 5 days after the Week 1 MRI) 4. Week #3 - between Fractions #11-15 (at least 5 days after the Week 2 MRI)
