Feasibility Study to Treat Lung Cancer With the Permanently Implantable LDR CivaSheet®

September 7, 2023 updated by: CivaTech Oncology
This is a feasibility study to determine the usefulness of a brachytherapy device that utilizes active components (palladium-103) of standard devices in a novel configuration, which may benefit lung cancer patients by reducing the radiation dose to critical structures, such as the heart wall, while giving a therapeutic dose to diseased tissue, such as at a surgical margin.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: CivaSheet Directional LDR Brachytherapy
FDA Cleared CivaSheet directional Pd-103 Brachytherapy Source is a planar radiation source which utilizes gold shielding in its construction. This device is radioactive on one side only, and is capable of safely delivering high doses of radiation to target areas even when placed directly adjacent to sensitive, healthy tissue or critical structures.
