Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The sample size was calculated by One-Sample Log-rank Tests in PASS 15 software. Class I error probability (α) = 0. 05; class II error probability (β) = 0. 2, that is, power = 1-β = 0. 8. According to the experience and data of the center, it is assumed that the local control index can be more than doubled by reducing RISI, that is, Hazard Rates113 (M1:M0) = 2:1. Finally the sample size was calculated to be 25 cases, and the sample size of was estimated to be 30 cases considering the 20% loss of follow-up rate.

About this study

Official title: A Serial Case, Single-arm, Real-world Study of the Safety and Efficacy of 3D-printed Coplanar Template Combined With CT-guided Radioactive I-125 Seed Implantation in the Treatment of Head and Neck Tumors

The purpose of this study is to verify the accuracy, short-term efficacy and side effects of 3D printing coplanar template combined with CT-guided I-125 seeds implantation in the treatment of malignant tumors of the head and neck.

Read the detailed description

Iodine-125 seeds Implantation (RISI) for the treatment of tumors, mainly with the help of imaging guidance, the radioactive I-125 seeds radioactive source is directly implanted into the tumor tissue, and the purpose of killing tumor cells is achieved through the continuous release of radiation by radionuclide. At present, it has been clinically used in the local treatment of tumors in head and neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, spine, columns and limbs. The main technical difficulties in implementing RISI lies in the complexity of operation and the control of operation quality.In the era of unarmed puncture, the quality of operation is difficult to guarantee, and the therapeutic effect is quite different.In 2015, our unit carried out RISI technology under the guidance of 3D model plates, which significantly improved the treatment accuracy of RISI.

The current 3D printing templates are divided into two types: non-coplanar template (3D-PNCT) and coplanar template (3D-PCT). In clinical practice, due to the complex technical requirements, high production cost and long printing time of non-coplanar mold board, a considerable number of patients can be well treated with coplanar template.Compared with the non-coplanar individualized template, the coplanar template has the advantages of accurate needle path control, rapid needle path adjustment, convenient real-time optimization, batch production without waiting for template printing time, and the operation is easy to process, easy for doctors to grasp quickly, the cost is lower than non-coplanar template, and easy to carry out at the grass-roots level. However, most of the existing clinical application data of the template come from the non-coplanar template, and the dosimetry, needle path error and clinical effect of particle implantation guided by the coplanar template are still lack of research. Therefore, this study intends to explore the coplanar template technology and analyze the safety and effectiveness of 3D printing coplanar template combined with CT-guided I-125 seeds implantation in the treatment of head and neck malignant tumors.

The purpose of this study is to verify the accuracy, short-term efficacy and side effects of 3D printing coplanar template combined with CT-guided I-125 seeds implantation in the treatment of malignant tumors of the head and neck.

What participants receive

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

  • Radioactive Iodine-125 Seeds ImplantationRadiation

    Radioactive Iodine-125 Seeds Implantation(RISI) belongs to permanent inter-tissue brachytherapy. Guided by CT or ultrasound,radioactive I-125 seeds are implanted into tumor tissue, and radioactive I-125 continuously releases radiation to kill tumor cells.Radioactive I-125 seeds can reach a higher dose in the tumor, and the dose of the normal tissue around the tumor is lower, and the damage to the normal tissue is less while reaching the radical dose. The NCCN guidelines recommend RISI as the standard treatment for early prostate cancer. For early prostate cancer, RISI can achieve comparable efficacy as surgery, complications and side effects are lower than surgery, therefore patients can obtain better quality of life. RISI is also recommended by NCCN as one of the treatments for locally recurrent rectal cancer. Several studies have confirmed that RISI is safe and effective in the treatment of locally advanced or recurrent head and neck, chest, abdominal and retroperitoneal tumors.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with head and neck tumors with local recurrence or metastasisThe patients in the group were treated with routine clinical treatment: 3D-PCT combined with CT-guided I-125 seeds implantation in the treatment of head and neck malignant tumors. The prescription dose is given 110-150Gy according to tumor pathological type, tumor volume, history of previous radiotherapy and different surrounding normal tissues according to experience and routine diagnosis and treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adverse events(operation-related complications and radiation side effects)

    Adverse events are commonly used in the term v5.0 to evaluate the side effects after treatment. The evaluation organ depends on the specific condition of the treatment site and the tissue adjacent to the target area. Other adverse events included particle displacement, needle implantation transfer, and operation-related complications (bleeding, nerve injury, etc).

    Measured: The side effects were completely observed after 2 years of follow-up.The follow-up interval was calculated from the completion of the treatment, once every 3 months in the first year and once every 6 months in the second year.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Local progression free survival

    The length of time during and after the treatment of the head and neck tumors, that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse.

    Measured: The local progression free survival were completely observed after 2 years of follow-up.The follow-up interval was calculated from the completion of the treatment, once every 3 months in the first year and once every 6 months in the second year.

  2. Overall survival

    Overall survival (OS) is defined as the time from follow up to death.

    Measured: he overall survival were completely observed after 2 years of follow-up.The follow-up interval was calculated from the completion of the treatment, once every 3 months in the first year and once every 6 months in the second year.
