Study of LUNG Stereotactic Adaptive Ablative Radiotherapy (LUNG STAAR)

September 25, 2023 updated by: Baptist Health South Florida

Phase II Study of LUNG Stereotactic Adaptive Ablative Radiotherapy for Central and Ultracentral Tumors

The proposed study expands on the principles of SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy) and SABR (Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy) for centrally located NSCLC (Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer) to further optimize outcomes in this patient population with utilization of the adaptive workflow to maintain tumor control rates but decrease the incidence and grade of treatment-related toxicities.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

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. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥ 18 years of age
  • Clinical diagnosis of NSCLC
  • Stage T1-2b (≤ 5 cm)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior invasive malignancy (except non-melanomatous skin cancer) unless disease free for a minimum of 1 year (i.e., carcinomas in situ of the breast, oral cavity, or cervix are permissible); previous lung cancer, if the patient is disease-free for a minimum of 1 year is permitted;
  • Prior radiotherapy to the region of the study cancer that would result in overlap of radiation therapy fields
  • Prior chemotherapy for the study cancer
  • Plans for the patient to receive other local therapy (including standard fractionated radiotherapy and/or surgery) while on this study, except at disease progression
  • Plans for the patient to receive systemic therapy (including standard chemotherapy or biologic targeted agents), while on this study, except at disease progression

Study Plan

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Cohort A: Central lung tumors

Cohort A will include 30 patients with central tumors; the dose regimen prescribed is 50 Gy (Gray) in 5 fractions with a 40 hour inter-fraction interval.
Experimental: Cohort B: Ultra-central lung tumors
Gross tumor volume (GTV) less than or equal to 1 cm from the mainstem bronchus, trachea, or esophagus
Radiation: Stereotactic Adaptive Ablative Radiotherapy at 60 Gy (Gray)
Cohort B will include 30 patients with ultra-central tumors; the dose regimen prescribed is 60 Gy (Gray) in 8 fractions on consecutive days.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Treatment completion
Time Frame: Plus or minus 5 days of treatment
Number of patients who completed treatment within +/- 5 days of intended treatment.
Plus or minus 5 days of treatment
Number of patients experiencing adverse events
Time Frame: 12-month of treatment
No greater than 15 percent of patients experience a 12-month ≥ grade 3 toxicity and ≤1 grade 5 toxicity possibly, probably, or definitely related to treatment.
12-month of treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Primary Tumor Control Rate
Time Frame: 1 year of treatment
Primary tumor control rate at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) based on each treatment cohort.
1 year of treatment
Progression-free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: 1 year of treatment
Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the first occurrence of local and/or regional disease progression, distant metastases, second primary tumor, or death due to any cause. PFS time is measured from the date of start of SBRT to the date of the failure event for PFS.
1 year of treatment
Overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: 1 year of treatment
Overall survival (OS) time is measured from the date of start of SBRT to the date of death due to any cause.
1 year of treatment
Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung (FACT-L)
Time Frame: Baseline
The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Lung (FACT-L) quality of life instrument has been extensively used for measuring quality of life in patients with lung cancer. There are 5 sections dealing with physical, family, emotional, functional well-being, and additional concerns. There are nine questions that are specific to lung cancer (LSC), including shortness of breath, cough, etc. The TOI (Trial Outcome Index) is the sum of the scores on the LCS and the physical well-being and functional well-being subscales of the FACT-L scale.
Baseline
EQ-5D-5L
Time Frame: 3 and 12-month follow-up
The five-item index score from EQ-5D-5L will be used to generate utility scores that will lie between 0 (Worst health state) and 1 (Best health state).
3 and 12-month follow-up
Late-Toxicity
Time Frame: 1 year of treatment
Rate of late (>1 year) ≥ grade 3 adverse events related to treatment
1 year of treatment
