About this study

Official title: 4D CT Scan With Respiratory Gating Versus 3D CT Scan Concerning Cardiac Dosimetry Assesment for Left Sided Breast Cancers Radiotherapy

To establish if the cardiac radiation dose assesment is well aproximated with routine 3D CT scan compared to 4D CT experimental scan with respiratory gating (breath motion monitoring). The study population relates to left side breast cancers female patients that require a radiation therapy treatment.

Read the detailed description

As a standard of care, the postoperative breast cancers radiation therapy is generally based on a 3 dimensions CT scan that does not incorporate the breathing motion by definition.

Meanwhile, the patients must commonly receive the treatment in free motion breathing condition.

More of that, the Cardiac dose, especially the LAD (left anterior descending artery) dose has been established as the main cause of radiation induced ischemic heart disease (RIHD) and should be consider in the first place.

In more concrete terms, the higher the LAD dose is, the greater the RIHD relates: arise the LAD dose by 1 Gy means a 7.4% higher risk to cause a RIHD during the next 5 years.

That being said, to determine if the cardiac dosimetry and the dose-volume histograms (specifically for the left side breast cancer treatments including or not the internal mammary artery) obtained from a 3D CT scan reflect well or not the reality (which is widely subject to the breathing motion).

Finally, because it has been established that a 4D CT scan can monitor the breathing motion, it seems definitely interesting to compare it with the average 3D CT scan to address this concern.

What participants receive

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

  • Respiratory gatingOther

    Also called breathing motion monitoring

    10 minutes breathing motion monitoring during an additional CT scan to establish a more accurate cardiac and LAD dosimetry compared to reality

Study groups in NCT05726604
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
3D CT ScanNo interventionAssesment of an usual cardiac dosimetry based on 3D CT scan. Only this dosimetry will be used to treat the patients. Because of the crossover model, patients are included in both arms.
4D CT scan with respiratory gatingExperimentalAssesment of an experimental cardiac dosimetry based on 4D CT scan. Not used to treat the patients. Because of the crossover model, patients are included in both arms.
Receives: Other: Respiratory gating

What is being measured

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

  1. 3D LAD mean dose vs 4D LAD mean dose

    To determine if the mean LAD (left anterior descending artery) dose significantly changes statistically between an usual 3D CT scan versus a 4D CT with breathing motion monitoring (10 breathing phases are monitored).

    Based on stastical test with 95% confidence intervals, to evaluate if there is a significant difference between 4D CT LAD mean dose and 3D CT LAD mean dose.

    Measured: 1 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Respiratory gating in people with Breast Cancer and Radiation-Induced Vascular Disease, run by Central Hospital Saint Quentin at 1 site 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 8 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 9 Jun 2023. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Karim Boulanouar (0323067861, ak.boulanouar@ch-stquentin.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

3D LAD mean dose vs 4D LAD mean dose (time frame: 1 week). 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 9 Jun 2023.
