About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Trial Evaluating Five Fraction SABR Dose Escalation for Early Stage Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung

The purpose of this study is to test whether 5 fraction stereotactic ablative body radiation (SABR) is safe and improves local control for early state squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. While three fraction SABR is effective for the treatment of early stage non small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) of all histologies, it is not safe for many patients. While four and five fraction SABR is safe, recently published data and our institutional data suggests that local control for early stage squamous cell carcinoma of the lung using the current four or five fraction SABR is suboptimal.

Read the detailed description
  1. Primary Objectives During Phase I study - Determine the safety and maximum tolerated radiation dose for five fraction SABR for squamous cell cancer of the lung. During Phase II study - Determine 2 year local control of dose escalated five fraction SABR vs. institutional historical control standard dose SABR in squamous cell cancer of the lung.
  2. Phase II Secondary Objectives
  • Determine overall survival, progression free survival and patterns of failure after SABR.
  • Determine tolerability of dose escalated SABR.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in each cohort during Phase 1

    Any event per CTCAE v.4 that occurs within 30 days from the start of SABR, and is possibly, probably or definitely related to treatment, and is related to a specific list of symptoms which are outlined in the protocol.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Local control during Phase 2

    Failures will be classified as local failures if failing within or immediately adjacent to the PTV, unless judged by the investigator team to convincingly be a separate lesion from the treated lesion (i.e. new lesion within a planning target volume but across a fissure).

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Overall survival

    Length of time start of treatment that patients are still alive

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation (SABR) in people with Lung Cancer, run by Indiana University at 3 sites 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 9 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: After completion of Phase I, it was decided not to initiate Phase II of the study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in each cohort during Phase 1 (time frame: 30 days). 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 26 Jul 2022.
