About this study

Official title: Feasibility Study of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Followed by Wedge Resection for Peripherally Located Early Stage Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies the side effects and how well stereotactic radiosurgery followed by wedge resection works in treating patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer that is located in the outer, or peripheral, areas of the lung. Stereotactic radiosurgery, also known as stereotactic body radiation therapy, is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Wedge resection is a less invasive type of surgery for removal of the tumor and a small amount of normal tissue around it. Giving stereotactic radiosurgery followed by wedge resection may be a safe treatment option for patients who cannot receive standard treatment with lobectomy.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the safety and feasibility of a wedge resection following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for early stage peripheral non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess pathologic response rates to SBRT as determined by pathologic examination of resected tumors.

II. To prospectively assess patient quality of life when treated with SBRT and wedge resection.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To describe the location of viable tumor and to correlate pathologic response rates with radiation dose, size of tumor, and tumor histology.

II. To correlate pathologic response rates and functional imaging with pre- and post-treatment dual-input perfusion (DP)-computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT.

III. To correlate changes in serum levels of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation and circulating tumor cells (CTC) with pathologic response rates.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo stereotactic radiosurgery every other day for 3 or 5 fractions (depending on the size tumor and proximity to the chest wall). Within 4-6 weeks after completion of stereotactic radiosurgery, patients undergo wedge resection.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of grade 3-5 adverse events, graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03

    Treatment related toxicities will be assessed and recorded for each patient receiving treatment.

    Measured: Up to 12 months after surgery

  2. Rates of perioperative complications including blood loss, days in the intensive care unit, and operative time

    Measured: Up to 12 months after surgery

  3. Feasibility, determined by the number of patients who are able to complete wedge resection as well as receive the full dose of stereotactic radiosurgery

    Measured: Up to 12 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pathologic response rates

    The pathologic response rates will be determined by measuring the percent of viable cells in the resected specimen. Associations (e.g. between pathologic response rates and DP-CT, fludeoxyglucose [FDG] uptake, DNA methylation, and CTC levels) will be displayed visually with scatterplots or contingency tables and appropriate measure of association (Wilcoxon test, Fisher's exact test, Spearman correlation coefficient, and McNemar's test).

    Measured: Up to 12 months after surgery

  2. Quality of life assessment

    Quality of life assessments will be summarized over time with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Up to 12 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stereotactic radiosurgery, therapeutic conventional surgery and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Recurrent Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Stage IA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, run by University of Southern California 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 26 inclusion and 3 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 16 Sep 2015. 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?

Rate of grade 3-5 adverse events, graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03 (time frame: Up to 12 months after surgery). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 16 Sep 2015.
