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 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Eligibility Criteria:

  • Planning to receive radiation therapy to one of the following sites:
  • Head and neck/brain (n=10)
  • Thorax (n=10)
  • Abdomen (n=10)
  • Pelvis (n=10)
  • At least 18 years of age
  • If the patient will be receiving IV contrast on study: Adequate renal function as defined by a serum creatinine < 1.4, or, for patients with chronic kidney disease, a stable serum creatinine < 2.0. Note: if no IV contrast will be administered on study, patient may enroll without creatinine level documented.
  • If the patient is a woman of childbearing potential, a negative pregnancy test must be obtained. Contraceptive use is not an adequate documentation of no chance of pregnancy.

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Imaging Study of Target Definition and Simulation-free Planning Workflows on the Halcyon 4.0 System for Patients Receiving Radiation Therapy

This prospective imaging study is evaluating the feasibility of using the Halcyon 4.0 radiotherapy system for radiation therapy planning in patients with cancer. The Halcyon 4.0 system has been engineered to decrease the image acquisition time and the radiation exposure, but the system has not yet been clinically validated for use in radiation planning. This pilot study will evaluate images obtained on the Halcyon 4.0 system to assess if the quality is sufficient for radiation treatment plan construction.

What participants receive

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

  • Halcyon 4.0 systemDevice

    During each of the 1 or more imaging sessions, no more than 6 images total will be acquired. Only 5 images total across all of the imaging sessions will be used toward the study endpoint.

Study groups in NCT05427214
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Halcyon 4.0 imagingExperimentalPatients planning to receive radiation therapy to the head and neck/brain, thorax, abdomen, or pelvis will undergo imaging on the Halcyon 4.0 system. Patients will return for a minimum of 2 sessions over 9 weeks, with a cumulative total of 10 images being collected.
Receives: Device: Halcyon 4.0 system

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of images that are of sufficient quality for patient primary treatment plan construction

    If the treatment target and surrounding organs at risk can be visualized and contoured for treatment planning purposes and a treatment plan created that meets the stated objectives ( or better than the stated objectives), then the kV CBCT images will be deemed feasible.

    Measured: At 9 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Halcyon 4.0 system in people with Brain Cancer and Head and Neck Cancer, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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?

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 21 Oct 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 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?

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?

Percentage of images that are of sufficient quality for patient primary treatment plan construction (time frame: At 9 weeks). 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 21 Oct 2024.
