Mapping of Sentinel Lymph Node Drainage Using SPECT (SUSPECT) (SUSPECT) (SUSPECT)

June 26, 2019 updated by: The Netherlands Cancer Institute

Mapping of Sentinel Lymph Node Drainage Using SPECT to Tailor Highly-Selective Elective Nodal Irradiation in Node-Negative Neck of Patients With Head and Neck Cancer (SUSPECT)

This study aims to explore the feasibility, safety and outcome of a non-invasive sentinel node mapping (SNM) to individually tailor the elective nodal irradiation (ENI) to the ipsilateral neck only and to exclude the contralateral negative neck from the irradiation fields when there is no draining sentinel node. Subsequently the dose to the salivary glands, mucosal area and the swallowing and chewing muscles and structures involved in voicing and articulation will significantly be reduced

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Feasibility and safety of single side radiation therapy measured by physical examination and toxicity measurement by CTCAE 4.03 at 12 weeks
Time Frame: 12 weeks
mapping of sentinel lymph node drainage to indentify groups at low risk of the probability of contra regionale failure is to be estimated to be 2% at 2 years. A recurrrence rate of >15% will be assumed unacceptable
