Trial summary

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with radical dose achieved similar results with radiofrequency ablation (RF) and radical surgery, according to previous studies. For tumors near great blood vessels or with a diameter more than 2cm, SBRT performs even better than RF. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy With Deep Inspiration Breath Hold for Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization and Lipiodol Marking

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with radical dose achieved similar results with radiofrequency ablation (RF) and radical surgery, according to previous studies. For tumors near great blood vessels or with a diameter more than 2cm, SBRT performs even better than RF. In current clinical practice of SBRT for small HCC, registration is achieved by planting metal markers near the tumor, which has several disadvantages: 1. the operation is invasive, increase the risk of bleeding in patients with cirrhosis; 2. the operation is of no therapeutic value; 3. metal markers can only be planted outside the tumor to avoid transplantation, which compromises the accuracy of registration via CBCT. This study aims to adopt a new method of registration, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and lipiodol marking, to analyze the recognition and clarity of lipiodol on CBCT images, set-up errors and treatment efficacy. Therefore to provide data to support TACE and lipiodol marking over metal marker planting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recognition of lipiodol marking

    Judged by 2 technicians and 1 physician on CBCT images. High recognition is concluded when all three consider it easily registered. Moderate recognition is concluded when two consider it easily registered. Poor recognition is concluded when one or none consider it easily registered.

    Measured: During the radiotherapy

  2. ORR

    Objective response rate

    Measured: 6 months after radiotherapy

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Completion rate of treatment model

    Including the success rate of lipiodol deposition at 1 months after TACE and completion of SBRT

    Measured: 1 months after TACE

  2. LCR

    Local control rate

    Measured: 12 months and 24 months after radiotherapy

  3. PFS

    Progress free survival

    Measured: 12 months and 24 months after radiotherapy

  4. Frequency of AE

    Frequency of treatment associated adverse events

    Measured: up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lipiodol marking in people with Hepatocellular Carcinoma, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 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 China. 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?

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?

Recognition of lipiodol marking (time frame: During the radiotherapy). The study lists 2 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 10 Jan 2024.
