About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of CyberKnife Radiosurgery Delivered to the Partial Breast for Women With Stage 0, 1, or IIA (<=3cm) Breast Cancer

This pilot study will evaluate the technical feasibility and acute toxicity of Partial Breast Irradiation (PBI) with the CyberKnife in anticipation of a larger multi-institutional Phase II study. It will evaluate quality of life (QOL) issues as they relate to treatment related side effects, cosmetic result, and patient convenience.

Radiosurgery is defined as the stereotactic delivery of ionizing radiation in 5 stages or less to a designated target with sub-millimeter accuracy. Radiosurgery in the context of this protocol will be given to the region of the tumor bed within 7 weeks of lumpectomy and sentinel/axillary node sampling over a period of five to ten days using the CyberKnife (CK). Subjects will receive CK before chemotherapy, if applicable.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CyberKnife Partial Breast IrradiationRadiation

    Body radiosurgery will be delivered to the lumpectomy cavity with specified margin. Radiation dose will be 600 cGy x 5 stages = 3000 cGy over five to ten total days.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1. To evaluate the feasibility of CyberKnife body radiosurgery as the sole radiation therapy for this patient population 2. To evaluate the complication rate of CyberKnife body radiosurgery as the sole radiation therapy for this patient population

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. 1. To evaluate the local control rate of CyberKnife body radiosurgery as the sole radiation therapy for this patient population. 2. To evaluate Quality of Life after CyberKnife body radiosurgery PBI.

    Measured: 1 - 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CyberKnife Partial Breast Irradiation in people with Breast Cancer, run by Georgetown University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Nov 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1. To evaluate the feasibility of CyberKnife body radiosurgery as the sole radiation therapy for this patient population 2. To evaluate the complication rate of CyberKnife body radiosurgery as the sole radiation therapy for this patient population (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2013.
