Лучевая терапия протонами или фотонами при лечении больных раком печени

9 октября 2026 г. обновлено: NRG Oncology

Рандомизированное исследование фазы III протонов в сравнении с фотонами при гепатоцеллюлярной карциноме

This phase III trial studies how well radiation therapy with protons works compared with photons in treating patients with liver cancer. Radiation therapy, such as photon therapy, uses high energy x-rays to send the radiation inside the body to the tumor while proton therapy uses a beam of proton particles. Proton therapy can stop shortly after penetrating through the tumor and may cause less damage to the surrounding healthy organs and result in better survival in patients with liver cancer.

Подробное описание

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine if overall survival (OS) is different for hepatocellular carcinoma patients treated with protons compared to photons.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the difference in progression-free-survival (PFS) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with protons compared to patients with HCC treated with photons.

II. To determine the difference in local progression (LP) in patients with HCC treated with protons compared to patients with HCC treated with photons.

III. To determine differences in toxicity in patients with HCC treated with protons versus photons.

IV. To determine differences in fatigue, as measured by Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) fatigue in patients with HCC treated with protons, versus photons; as well as quality-adjusted survival, if the primary endpoint is met.

V. To determine if there are correlations between the baseline values of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and outcomes (OS/PFS/fatigue).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine differences in overall quality of life, measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Hepatobiliary Cancer (FACT-Hep) in patients with HCC treated with protons.

II. Biospecimen collection for future correlative science projects.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms, photon or proton therapy (see Arms and Interventions).

Patients undergo computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and blood sample collection throughout the study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then yearly thereafter.

Adverse events reported as possibly, probably, or definitely related to treatment are considered to be treatment-related adverse events.

Change From Baseline to One Month in the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System - Fatigue Short Form version1.0 8a [PROMIS Fatigue Score]
Временное ограничение: Baseline and one month

The PROMIS Fatigue Short Form v1.0 8a contains 8 items that assess self-reported fatigue symptoms over the past 7 days. Item responses are summed to obtain a raw score ranging from 8 to 40, which is then converted to a standardized T-score (mean = 50, standard deviation = 10). Higher T-scores indicate greater fatigue. Change from baseline is calculated as the post-baseline T-score minus the baseline T-score, with positive change scores indicating increased fatigue and negative change scores indicating decreased fatigue.
