Trial summary

Standard treatment for oropharynx cancer is radiotherapy by intensity modulation with only one planification before treatment. Adaptative radiotherapy integrates one or several planifications during treatment radiotherapy in order to take into account anatomic modifications that occurs. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Medico-economic Assessment of Adaptative Radiotherapy to Decrease Xerostomia in Locally Advanced Oropharynx Xerostomia

Standard treatment for oropharynx cancer is radiotherapy by intensity modulation with only one planification before treatment. Adaptative radiotherapy integrates one or several planifications during treatment radiotherapy in order to take into account anatomic modifications that occurs.

Adaptative radiotherapy is very expensive, complex and is consuming human resources as well as equipment.

ARTIX study (NCT01874587) entitled "Phase III trial testing the benefit of intensity-modulated radiotherapy with weekly replanifications versus intensity modulated radiotherapy with only one planification in locally advanced oropharynx carcinoma for decreasing xerostomia" is completed and clinical data from this study are used to analyse if xerostomia is decreased when adaptative radiotherapy is used.

ARTOME study will assess cost-efficiency and cost utility between standard treatment (one pretherapeutic planification) and experimental treatment (weekly replanifications during treatment). Clinical data from ARTIX study will be used for ARTOME study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cost utility analysis of standard radiotherapy (one pretherapeutic planification) compared to adaptative (weekly planification)

    The cost utility analysis is expressed in cost per one year life gained

    Measured: 2 years after end of radiotherapy treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oropharynx Cancer, run by Center Eugene Marquis at 11 sites in France.

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 7 inclusion and 14 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 5 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in France. 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?

Cost utility analysis of standard radiotherapy (one pretherapeutic planification) compared to adaptative (weekly planification) (time frame: 2 years after end of radiotherapy treatment). 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 5 Sep 2021.
