The French Registry Of Morbidity And Mortality Reviews (MMR) Meetings: Prospective Registration Of Clinical, Dosimetric And Individual Biological Radiosensitivity Data Of Patients With Severe Radiation Toxicity (PROUST STUDY)

Background: Recently, an increasing international interest has arisen in using morbidity and mortality rates to monitor the quality of hospital cares (1, 2). Many hospitals have integrated the morbidity and mortality review (MMR) meetings into their governance processes, by making them mandatory and more accountable for taking corrective action (3-5).

Quality of radiotherapy (RT) delivery is highly operator dependent. The operator is a team of professionals including radiation oncologists, planning dosimetrists, physicists and technicians. Because of this complex, multi-step process, there is margin for error, which may affect outcomes and toxicity. Some deviations may have minimal effects on outcome, while others may have a profound effect and compromise long-term results. For the morbidity after RT, MMR is identified as one of the most adapted process to highlight whether and how these meetings provide assurance within the organizations' governance processes in radiation departments.

In France, many teams have not reached a formalized procedure for a systematic MMR. Furthermore, implementation of MMR in RT departments is very heterogeneous and not always meets the criteria defined by the Health Authorities (HAS) (6).

Systemic analysis conducted during the MMR is a comprehensive analysis of the situation, taking into account all technical and human elements. The diagnosis and type of morbidity depends on the irradiated volume, the dose delivered to the organ at risk and the individual radiosensitivity.

Follow-up after RT is important to evaluate outcome results and late toxicity. In general, late effects consist of tissue fibrosis and vascular damage, which can result in cosmetic and functional deterioration. Some of the radiation-induced sequelea may require particular management including hospitalization (lung fibrosis, gastro-intestinal and genito-urinary toxicities,..), while for other ones, only local treatments are needed (mucosal toxicity, skin fibrosis…). The challenge for clinicians in the frame of the MMR is to make sure that there is no controversy about the delivered RT quality and investigate other potential causes such as particular intrinsic radiosensitivity of the patient for a given standard treatment.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
