About this study

Recently developed hybrid machines (MRidian®-CE approval since 2016), consisting of a linear accelerator and an integrated low-field MRI, could allow better visualization of tumor and organs at risk during patient positioning and daily treatment finally repetitive adaptation of target volumes according to changes in patient weight and tumor anatomy during the radiotherapy course. These procedures would facilitate a high-precision treatment and help reduce dose exposure of critical structures.

What participants receive

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

  • RadiotherapyRadiation

    Radiotherapy: All patients were treated with Unity MRI Linac intensity modulated radiation therapy, daily imaging of MRI-IGRT and online target delineation, redesign, and total radiation dose: GTV 70Gy/33f, GTVLN 70Gy/33f, CTV 60Gy/33f, CTVLN 54Gy/33f, 5 days per week. Dose limit: The average dose to the upper, middle, and lower pharyngeal constrictor muscles is ≤ 40-50Gy, with oropharyngeal cancer requiring an average dose to the upper, middle, and lower pharyngeal constrictor muscles to be ≤ 50Gy and ≤ 20Gy; Lower pharyngeal cancer requires an average dose of ≤ 40Gy for the upper and middle pharyngeal constrictor muscles, and ≤ 50Gy for the lower pharyngeal constrictor muscles.

    chemotherapy: cisplatin 75mg/m2, 21 days per cycle, a total of 3 cycles.

A study testing Radiotherapy in people with HNSCC, run by Sichuan Cancer Hospital and Research Institute 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 8 inclusion and 13 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 26 Apr 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 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?

Contact Yangkun Luo (13518161979, 621199521@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Swallowing Difficulty (time frame: 12 months). 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?
