Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Centrally Located Lung Cancer

This study is testing a specific type of radiation treatment called 3-fraction stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using a dose of 45 Gray (Gy) for people with non-small cell lung cancer that is located in the center of the chest. The main goals are to see how safe this treatment is and how well it controls the cancer in the treated area. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older and have a lung tumor that is 5 cm or smaller and centrally located. The study plans to enroll 36 participants. The current status of the study is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study planning to enroll 36 participants with non-small cell lung cancer.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Safety will be measured for up to 2 years after SBRT, and local control will be measured for up to 10 years after you enroll.

Pregnant or lactating 5. Any other medical condition or reason that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude study participation
  • Safety of the stereotactic body radiotherapy regimen (SBRT)From administration of SBRT up to 2 years post-SBRT

    Safety will be assessed by acute (defined as within 90 days of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT)) and late (from 91 days through 2 years post-SBRT) toxicities. Toxicities are based on (Common Terminology Criteria for adverse events) CTCAE v. 5 criteria

  • local control (LC) of 3-fraction stereotactic body radiotherapyUp to 10 years post-enrollment.

    The absence of primary tumor failure. Primary tumor failure is defined as Increase in tumor dimension of 20%.
