Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • WHO-Performance status (WHO-PS) 0 - 1
  • Patients with 1 to 3 lung metastases between 8 mm and 3 cm each, from colorectal cancer. Resection has been considered at a multidisciplinary conference but was not recommended or has been refused by the patient.
  • Possibility to define target lesions that fulfil the following criteria:
  • No lesion larger than 3 cm;
  • Not more than 3 metastases ≥ 8 mm in total (lesions smaller than 8 mm in diameter are NOT counted and will NOT be irradiated);
Show all 12Show fewer
  • No prior radiotherapy (SABR or other) within about 2 cm from target lesions (i.e., the distance between prior planning-target-volume (PTV) to actual intended PTV is more than 2 cm AND dose distribution of former radiation permits SABR).
  • Primary tumour has been completely removed surgically.
  • Metastases outside target organs (e.g. liver metastases or other) are radically treated locally (resection, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), stereotactic radiotherapy, or other). Earlier resected or ablated (SABR, RFA, MWA) metastases to lung, liver, or other organ form no exclusion criterion. Brain metastases should be completely resected or treated with stereotactic radiosurgery. Bone metastases should be resected or treated with high dose radiotherapy (equivalent of > 40 Gy) and be asymptomatic.
  • Patients at reproductive potential must agree to practice an effective contraceptive method. Women of childbearing potential must not be pregnant or lactating.
  • Proficiency in the Dutch language so that quality-of-life questionnaires can be completed in Dutch and absence of any psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; those conditions should be discussed with the patient before registration in the trial.
  • Before patient randomisation, informed consent must be given according to International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) of the European Union (EU) in accordance with good clinical practice (GCP), and national/local regulations.

Who cannot join

  • Any clinical symptoms possibly or certainly caused by index lungmetastases
  • Physical inability to undergo stereotactic radiotherapy (e.g., serious shoulder stiffness)
  • Any uncontrolled malignancy other than index colorectal cancer
  • Other malignancy within recent two years, even if completely under control (under control = no evidence of disease)
  • Failure to comply with any of the inclusion criteria

About this study

Official title: Immediate Versus Delayed Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) for Patients With Pulmonary Oligometastases From Colorectal Cancer: SABR SCAN Trial A Randomised Clinical Trial

Rationale:

SABR (Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy) is one of the standard treatment options besides surgical resection for limited lung metastases (oligometastases) from colorectal cancer. High efficacy in terms of local control of metastatic lesions treated has been shown. Nevertheless, the precise effect of SABR upon progression-free- and overall survival in these patients is unknown. To further evaluate and develop local treatment options in metastatic disease, more information is necessary regarding the impact upon - and the pattern of - disease progression of local treatment options such as SABR.

Objective:

To determine the effect upon progression free survival and upon tumorload relative to baseline, both at one year after randomisation of immediate SABR versus delayed SABR (a scan-and-personalise policy). Secondarily, patterns of progression, patient-reported symptoms and quality of life will be monitored.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival (PFS)

    Measured: 12 months after randomisation

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Relative change of tumourload expressed as volume of all tumour at one year divided by volume of all tumour at time of randomisation;

    Measured: 12 months after randomisation

  2. Time to failure of local strategy (TFLS): failure = death or progressive disease NOT amenable to local treatment

    Measured: when it occurs

  3. Progression of target lesions as measured by CT

    Measured: 12 months after randomisation

  4. Health-related quality of life profile

    Euro-Qol 5 dimensions (EuroQoL-5D); Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS); European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire - lung cancer module (EORTC-QLQ-LC13)

    Measured: Baseline; 3 months after randomisation and at 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and 24 months

  5. Progression of lesions other than target lesions as measured by CT

    Measured: 12 months after randomisation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) in people with Oligometastases, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 12 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Mar 2024. 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 Netherlands. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Progression free survival (PFS) (time frame: 12 months after randomisation). 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 1 Mar 2024.
