Lattice Radiation Therapy Versus Conventional Radiation Therapy for the Palliation of Large Tumors


Sponsor

University Health Network, Toronto

Enrollment

148 participants

Start Date

Nov 18, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this randomized, phase III trial is to to determine if Spatially Fractionated Lattice Radiotherapy (SFRT) known as LATTICE therapy, leads to a greater reduction in pain or discomfort compared with conventional Radiation Therapy (RT) in patients with large tumours. This is evaluated by assessing if a greater proportion of patients who receive RT with SFRT will have an improvement in pain/discomfort at 30 days defined using the International Consensus Pain Response (ICPR) compared with those treated with conventional RT.


Eligibility

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This clinical trial is studying Conventional Radiation Therapy and Spatially fractionated radiation therapy for people with histopathologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumor who require palliation radiation therapy to a lesion ≥5cm. The study is currently recruiting participants at 1 location. People eligible for this study include aged 18 Years to 99 Years.

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.

Interventions

RADIATIONConventional Radiation Therapy

Delivered using simple techniques and includes dose prescriptions of: 8Gy in 1 fraction, 20Gy in 5 fractions, and 30Gy in 10 fractions

RADIATIONSpatially fractionated radiation therapy

LRT delivers ablative doses to discrete vertices within a tumor, forming a "lattice" while restricting the periphery of the tumor to a safe, low dose thereby minimizing radiation exposure to nearby OAR.
