About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Preoperative Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) and Radical Surgery for Soft Tissue Sarcoma of Extremities

Currently, the effectiveness and safety of preoperative hypo-fractionated radiotherapy in treating extremity soft tissue sarcomas remain inconclusive, warranting further investigation. Optimizing the neoadjuvant radiotherapy approach, including fractionation schedules and the interval between radiotherapy and surgery, is crucial to enhancing clinical efficacy while ensuring safety. This study proposes a multicenter, prospective, single-arm clinical trial utilizing preoperative SBRT for patients with high-grade extremity STS, tumors larger than 5 cm, or cases where achieving safe surgical margins is challenging due to involvement of surrounding blood vessels or nerves. The trial aims to preliminarily assess the impact of preoperative SBRT followed by radical surgery on surgical safety, quality of life, and tumor control in these patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and tolerability of radiotherapy followed by radical surgery

    Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse events (CTCAE v5.0)

    Measured: 120 days after radical surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Extremity function and Quality of life by EORTC QLQ-C30

    1 year after radical surgery

    Measured: Assessed up to 12 months

  2. Recurrence free survival

    From date of enrollment to the date of first documented recurrence

    Measured: 1-,2-,3-year after radical surgery

  3. Progression free survival

    from date of enrollment to the date of first documented progression

    Measured: 1-,2-,3-year after radical surgery

  4. Overall survival

    from date of enrollment to the date of death from any cause

    Measured: 1-,2-,3-year after radical surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing stereotactic body raiotherapy in people with Soft Tissue Sarcoma and Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine 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 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jan 2025. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Haiyan Chen, MD/PhD (+8657187783521, chenhaiyan@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and tolerability of radiotherapy followed by radical surgery (time frame: 120 days after radical surgery). 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 6 Jan 2025.
