VIBE - Virtual Image Guided Brachytherapy Emulation for Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer (LACC)

A Phase I/II Study for Image Guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Boost for Definitive Treatment of Locally Advanced Cervical Cancer (LACC)

Sponsor

Fundacao Champalimaud

Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Aug 4, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Cervical Cancer

Summary

This study will evaluate the role of SBRT with the aim to reproduce high dose rate brachytherapy (HDR BT) dose distribution by means of external beam radiotherapy in the radical treatment in patients with LACC. The study will employ devices to accurately reproduce pelvic anatomy and mitigate target motion and will make use of real-time online tracking.

Eligibility

Sex: FEMALEMin Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests a virtual reality simulation tool (VIBE) to help radiation oncology trainees practice a complex cervical cancer treatment called brachytherapy — where radiation is delivered from inside the body — without risk to real patients. **You may be eligible if...** - You are a radiation oncology resident, fellow, or attending physician - You are involved in treating or learning to treat locally advanced cervical cancer - You are willing to complete training sessions using the virtual simulation device **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are not part of a radiation oncology training or practice program - You are unwilling or unable to complete the required sessions Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
