A Randomized Trial of Standard vs. Hypofractionated Accelerated Radiotherapy for Progression in Limited-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (SHARP SCLC)

2. november 2026 oppdatert av: Melody Qu, London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute OR Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph's

A Randomized Trial of Standard vs. Hypofractionated Accelerated Radiotherapy for Progression in Limited-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (SHARP-SCLC)

This study aims to determine whether an abbreviated course of thoracic radiotherapy, delivered in five fractions over one week between chemotherapy cycles, improves progression-free survival compared with standard radiotherapy delivered concurrently with chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC).

Detaljert beskrivelse

This is a multicentre, randomized clinical trial comparing two thoracic radiation therapy (RT) approaches for patients with newly diagnosed limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC).

Standard treatment for LS-SCLC involves chemotherapy combined with thoracic radiation therapy. Conventional radiation schedules require daily or twice-daily treatments over several weeks. This study will investigate whether a shorter, accelerated course of radiotherapy can improve progression-free survival while reducing treatment burden.

The primary outcome is progression-free survival, defined as the time from randomization to disease progression or death. Secondary outcomes include overall survival, treatment-related toxicity, patient-reported quality of life, and treatment burden.

The study also includes exploratory translational research involving blood samples and radiation dosimetric analyses to better understand the biological effects of different radiation schedules.

Participants will be followed for up to five years after randomization to assess short- and long-term outcomes.

Beskrivelse

Inclusion Criteria:

  • New diagnosis of Limited-stage small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC), eligible for curative intent concurrent chemoradiotherapy

    -- Planned for immunotherapy and prophylactic cranial irradiation is allowed and encouraged

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2

  • Age 18 years or older

  • Life expectancy > 3 months

  • Willingness and ability to provide informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior thoracic radiation therapy (RT) which, in the opinion of the treating radiation oncologist, precludes the delivery of further thoracic RT

    • If there has been prior thoracic RT, a composite of all RT plans must be created, and the dose constraints herein must still be met
    • An allowance for 10% repair is permitted if at least 12 months have passed between the prior RT and the trial protocol specified RT

  • Serious medical comorbidities which, in the opinion of the treating radiation oncologist, preclude the delivery of RT

    -- This includes interstitial lung disease

  • Patients who have started systemic treatment for LS-SCLC but are unable to start radiation with cycle 3 or earlier (delaying scheduled chemotherapy without clinical indication) is not permitted

  • Pregnant or lactating women

  • Inability to attend the full course of RT or planed follow-up visits

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Standard Thoracic Radiotherapy
Stråling: Radiation Therapy

Standard RT using VMAT or IMRT. Accepted standard-of-care fractionation schedules include:

  • 60-66 Gy in 30-33 daily fractions
  • 40-45 Gy in 15 daily fractions
  • 45 Gy in 30 twice-daily fractions Radiotherapy will begin as early as feasible, preferably during chemotherapy cycle 1 or 2, and no later than cycle 3.
Legemiddel: Chemotherapy

4-6 cycles of intravenous (IV) cisplatin (75 mg/m2) or carboplatin (area under the curve of 5-6 mg/mL × min) given on day 1 or day 1-3 and etoposide (100 mg/m2) on days 1 to 3 every 3 weeks. Oral etoposide (200 mg/m²) is permitted in urgent situations and/or when IV etoposide is not feasible, at the treating clinician's discretion.
Eksperimentell: Hypofractionated Accelerated Thoracic Radiotherapy
Legemiddel: Chemotherapy

4-6 cycles of intravenous (IV) cisplatin (75 mg/m2) or carboplatin (area under the curve of 5-6 mg/mL × min) given on day 1 or day 1-3 and etoposide (100 mg/m2) on days 1 to 3 every 3 weeks. Oral etoposide (200 mg/m²) is permitted in urgent situations and/or when IV etoposide is not feasible, at the treating clinician's discretion.

Stråling: Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy

Hypofractionated radiotherapy using VMAT or IMRT, prescribed to a total dose of 35 Gy in 5 fractions, with a SIB to 40 Gy for GTV where feasible. Radiotherapy will begin as early as feasible, preferably during chemotherapy cycle 1 or 2, and no later than cycle 3. Radiation will be delivered between chemotherapy cycles, ideally on days 15-20 of the respective cycle to avoid the anticipated chemotherapy nadir, and will not be administered on chemotherapy treatment days.

Tidsramme
Progression-free survival
Tidsramme: From randomization to disease progression or death, assessed for up to 60 months.

Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Disease progression will be assessed using RECIST version 1.1 criteria. Participants without documented progression or death will be censored at the date of their last adequate disease assessment.
