About this study

Official title: A Feasibility Study of Stereotactic MRI-guided Adaptive Radiation Therapy (SMART) in One Fraction for Inoperable Primary or Metastatic Carcinoma (SMART ONE)

This is a multi-site single arm feasibility study of single-fraction Stereotactic MRI-guided Adaptive Radiation Therapy (SMART) for primary or metastatic carcinoma involving the lung, liver, adrenal gland, abdominal/pelvic lymph node, pancreas, and/or kidney. Stereotactic ablative body radiation therapy (SABR) is a highly-focused radiation treatment that gives an intense dose of radiation concentrated on a tumor, while limiting the dose to the surrounding organs.

Being tested
Stereotactic ablative body radiation therapy
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma

What participants receive

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

  • Stereotactic ablative body radiation therapyRadiation

    Single-fraction of stereotactic ablative body radiation (SABR) therapy will be delivered with an integrated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided radiotherapy delivery system (ViewRay MRIdian Linac). The prescription dose is dependent on the anatomic location of the lesion and based on previously published safety data.

Study groups in NCT04939246
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Single-fraction SABROtherPatients will receive SABR in a single-fraction regiment treatment with one single dose of radiation therapy per lesion. Patients may be treated for up to a total of ten lesions. Each lesion will be treated in one fraction.
Receives: Radiation: Stereotactic ablative body radiation therapy

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With SABR Successfully Delivered in One Fraction

    To be considered successful, SABR treatment must meet the following criteria:

    1. Successful completion of treatment to each lesion within 3 days of intended treatment date
    2. Successful completion of treatment to each lesion within 90 minutes from the patient entering the treatment room until treatment completion for at least 80% of treated lesions
    3. Image guidance verification of treatment delivery within 5 mm of the planned delivery

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Number of Patients Demonstrating Tolerability

    Number of patients that meet the following criteria:

    1. No greater than 4 of 30 patients experience grade 3 or higher acute toxicity is attributable to SABR within 90 days of completing SABR
    2. No grade 5 toxicity is attributed to SABR

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. One-year Local Control

    Assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and estimated with Kaplan-Meier and corresponding 95% confidence interval from the time of study treatment.

    Target lesion:

    • Complete response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions
    • Partial response (PR): >30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions
    • Stable disease (SD): Target lesion has neither sufficient decrease to qualify as a PR or sufficient increase to qualify as progressive disease (PD)
    • PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions an absolute increase of at least 5 mm

    Non-target lesion:

    • CR: Disappearance of all non-target lesions
    • SD: Persistence of ≥1 non-target lesions
    • PD: Appearance of ≥1 new lesions or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions

    Overall:

    • CR: Target CR+non-target CR
    • PR: Target CR/PR+non-target non-PD
    • SD: Target SD+non-target non-PD
    • PD: Anything else

    Local control=CR+PR+SD using overall response.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Percent of Participants With One-year Overall Survival

    Percent of participants with one-year overall survival will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method along with the corresponding 95% confidence interval from the time of study treatment.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Number of Participants With Acute and Late Toxicity Results

    Number of participants with acute and late toxicities defined as grade 3 or higher toxicity attributable to SABR will be determined. For patients receiving SABR to multiple lesions, acute toxicity will be determined from the date of the initiation of SABR.

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Change in Participant Reported Quality of Life Questionnaire

    Patient-reported quality of life will be determined using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) survey instrument. FACT-G is a 27-item questionnaire that covers four sub-domains: physical (7 items), social (7 items), emotional, (6 items), and functional (7 items) well-being. Each question is scored from a scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much) using a manual scoring template in which some items are reversed. After reversal of specified items, the sub-domain scores are totaled, then multiplied by the number of items in the sub-domain, and then divided by the number of items the participant answered. The scores for each sub-domain are 0 (worst well-being) to 24 (best emotional well-being) or 28 (best physical, social, or functional well-being). The total scores can range from 0 (worst overall well-being) to 108 (best overall well-being).

    Measured: baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after treatment
