About this study

Official title: Yttrium-90 Radiation Segmentectomy Versus Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for the Treatment of Early Stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC): A Pilot Study

The proposed study is a single site, prospective, randomized pilot study to assess the feasibility of recruitment of patients into a trial evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of selective transarterial Y90 radioembolization (radiation segmentectomy) versus stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for solitary early stage (≤ 3cm) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Being tested
Yttrium-90 Radiation Segmentectomy, Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular

What participants receive

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

  • Yttrium-90 Radiation SegmentectomyRadiation

    This therapy arm involves two separate steps, a planning/mapping arteriogram and a therapy delivery. The planning arteriogram will be performed to confirm arterial anatomy is acceptable for RS (≤2 segment delivery) and that lung shunting is not too high to preclude treatment with RS. Once confirmed, patients will return for RS (within 45 days of mapping). Dose will be calculated based off the desired treatment volume using pre-treatment cross-sectional imaging. The desired segmental dose will be calculated to be ≥ 200Gy. RS will be performed by one of three separate interventional radiologists with experience in radioembolization. Actual administered activity and location of dose administration will be recorded.

  • Stereotactic Body Radiation TherapyRadiation

    SBRT will be delivered with linear accelerator-based photon beams with either fixed angle non- coplanar fields or dynamic arcs. An internal target volume (ITV) will be generated to account for tumor movement during breathing cycle. Finally, a planning target volume (PTV) will be an expansion of 3- 5mm from the ITV. For Child Pugh A patients, prescription dose will either be 5000cGy in 5 fractions delivered every other day or 4800cGy in 3 fractions delivered twice weekly. For Child Pugh B patients, prescription dose of 4000cGy in 5 fractions delivered every other day. Inverse planning will be used. 95% of the PTV or more will receive at least 100% of the prescription dose. Normal tissue dose constraints for each dose level will be respected with acceptable deviations permitted as outlined in appendix VII. Patients will be seen at least once per week by a clinician to grade toxicities, with on- treatment labs (CBC, CMP, INR) each week.

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of Recruitment (Recruitment Rate)

    Feasibility of recruitment will be measured by evaluating the proportion of patients enrolled versus those approached for the study after they have been determined to be a candidate.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Proportion of Patients With Any Toxicities

    the proportion of patients with any toxicities (≥ grade 4) using CTCAE between RS and SBRT for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

    Measured: 16 months for the first subject and 4 months for the second

  2. Mean Change in Hepatobiliary Function

    the mean change in hepatobiliary function, as measured 3 months after treatment using a functional HIDA scan, between RS and SBRT for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

    Measured: 16 months for the first subject and 4 months for the second

  3. Mean Change in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- General (FACT-G) Score

    the mean change in patient-reported outcomes from baseline, at 1, 3 and 6 months, between RS and SBRT, for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- General (FACT-G). scale goes from 0-108 with a higher score being better.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Mean Change in Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity

    the mean change in patient-reported outcomes from baseline, at 1, 3 and 6 months, between RS and SBRT, for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), using the Comprehensive Score for Financial Toxicity (COST). scale is from 0-44 with higher being bettter

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Disease-free Survival (DFS) Rates of RS and SBRT

    the disease-free survival (DFS) rates of RS and SBRT at 2 years using mRECIST on CT or MR for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

    Measured: 16 months for the first subject and 4 months for the second

  6. Time-to-secondary Treatment (TTST) Between RS and SBRT

    time-to-secondary treatment (TTST) between RS and SBRT for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) up to 2 years after initial treatment.

    Measured: 16 months for the first subject and 4 months for the second

  7. Objective Response Rate

    the objective response rate (ORR) of radiation segmentectomy (RS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) as measured at 6 months using mRECIST (appendix IV) for patients with small (≤3 cm) solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to better allow for an appropriately powered trial evaluating the efficacy of these treatments.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Yttrium-90 Radiation Segmentectomy and Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), run by Indiana 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 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2023. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Oct 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Feasibility of Recruitment (Recruitment Rate) (time frame: 24 months). 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 25 Oct 2023.
