About this study

Official title: Dynamic Perfusion Computed Tomography Changes After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Localized Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies the changes in dynamic perfusion computed tomography images before, during, and after stereotactic body radiation therapy in patients with stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. Diagnostic imaging procedures, such as dynamic perfusion computed tomography, measure blood flow through tumors. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a specialized radiation therapy that sends x-rays directly to the tumor using smaller doses over several days and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving dynamic perfusion computed tomography images before, during, and after stereotactic body radiation therapy may help better understand how radiation therapy works to stop tumor growth in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To describe perfusion computed tomography (CT) parameters and their changes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors prior to, during, 1 month after, and 3 months after stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To correlate tumor perfusion parameters with clinical tumor response on follow up per standard of care.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To correlate changes in serum levels of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation and circulating tumor cell (CTC) with clinical response rates and perfusion parameters.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo dynamic perfusion computed tomography (DPCT) at baseline, during SBRT (after 2 of 3 fractions or 3 of 5 fractions), and then at 1 and 3 months post stereotactic body radiation therapy.

After completion of study, patients are followed up at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in blood flow (mL/min/100 g) as measured on perfusion CT

    Descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation or median and range, will be used to summarize the distribution of perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time and permeability), as well as their changes from baseline to the time-points after SBRT. Precision of the estimated means will be provided. Line graphs will be used to display the changes in the parameters over time. If the distribution of the data permits, mixed-effect linear regression analysis will be performed to examine the patterns of the pre- vs. post-SBRT change in the endpoints.

    Measured: Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT

  2. Change in blood volume (mL/100 g) as measured on perfusion CT

    Descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation or median and range, will be used to summarize the distribution of perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time and permeability), as well as their changes from baseline to the time-points after SBRT. Precision of the estimated means will be provided. Line graphs will be used to display the changes in the parameters over time. If the distribution of the data permits, mixed-effect linear regression analysis will be performed to examine the patterns of the pre- vs. post-SBRT change in the endpoints.

    Measured: Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT

  3. Change in mean transit time (seconds) as measured on perfusion CT

    Descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation or median and range, will be used to summarize the distribution of perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time and permeability), as well as their changes from baseline to the time-points after SBRT. Precision of the estimated means will be provided. Line graphs will be used to display the changes in the parameters over time. If the distribution of the data permits, mixed-effect linear regression analysis will be performed to examine the patterns of the pre- vs. post-SBRT change in the endpoints.

    Measured: Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT

  4. Change in permeability (mL/min/100 g) as measured on perfusion CT

    Descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation or median and range, will be used to summarize the distribution of perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time and permeability), as well as their changes from baseline to the time-points after SBRT. Precision of the estimated means will be provided. Line graphs will be used to display the changes in the parameters over time. If the distribution of the data permits, mixed-effect linear regression analysis will be performed to examine the patterns of the pre- vs. post-SBRT change in the endpoints.

    Measured: Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Clinical tumor response assessed by CT scans as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors criteria version 1.1

    Descriptive statistics will also be used in the analyses of the secondary endpoints. Correlations between the endpoints will be examined with scatter plots and/or box plots. Patient's response status will be correlated with tumor perfusion parameters.

    Measured: Up to 24 months post SBRT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stage IA Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma and Stage IB Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma, 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 12 inclusion and 7 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 11 Jul 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 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 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?

Change in blood flow (mL/min/100 g) as measured on perfusion CT (time frame: Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT). The study lists 4 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 11 Jul 2024.
