Hypofractionated, 3-week, Preoperative Proton or X-ray Radiotherapy for Patients With Localized Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Официальное название

PROSARC-1. Hypofractionated, 3-week, Preoperative Proton or X-ray Radiotherapy for Patients With Localized Soft Tissue Sarcoma. A Single-arm, Multicenter, Phase II Clinical Trial.

Обзор

The purpose of the study is to investigate whether a personalized selection of patients with localized soft tissue sarcoma for preoperative proton radiation therapy can reduce long-term radiation side effects without increasing surgical complications or reducing the effectiveness of the treatment. Two radiation plans will be created for each patient-one for protons and one for photons-and through a national meeting, we will determine which type of radiation therapy each patient will receive. The radiation dose will be the same for both photons and protons. The primary endpoint is surgical complications 120 days after surgery. Secondary endpoints include overall survival, local recurrence-free survival, disease-free survival, side effects, and quality of life. Furthermore, the study will investigate biomarkers that may predict response to radiation therapy, including changes in the tumor's genetic material (DNA), measurement of various molecules in the bloodstream, and the tumor's appearance on MRI scans. The study will be conducted in Norway, with a planned inclusion of 110 patients.

Подробное описание

The objective of the PROSARC-1 trial is to investigate whether a national personalized approach with proton beam therapy (PBT) to selected soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients can reduce long-term toxicity without increasing surgical complications or compromising local control. PROSARC-1 is a single arm, open-label, multicenter phase II trial initiated at Department of Oncology, Oslo University Hospital (OUS). The main inclusion criterion is patients with newly diagnosed STS of the head, neck, extremity or trunk wall. The primary endpoint is major wound complications (MVC) occurring within the first 120 days after surgery. We expect to include 110 patients over three years and all patients will be followed for up to five years. All the sarcoma centers in Norway participate in the study: OUS; Haukeland University hospital (HUH); St Olavs Hospital (SOH) and the University Hospital of North-Norway (UNN). The indication for preoperative radiotherapy (RT) will be decided in the sarcoma multidisciplinary (MDT) meeting at each center. For included patients, one X-ray radiotherapy (XRT) and one PBT plan will be made for comparison. A weekly national sarcoma radiotherapy meeting will compare the plans and recommend XRT or PBT treatment based on a careful clinical evaluation, also considering thresholds based on the toxicity grade. The prescribed dose is standard 42.75 Gy in 15 fractions over 3 weeks for both XRT and PBT.

The PROSARC-1 trial includes translational radiomic research, where we aim to elucidate underlying mechanisms related to radiotherapy effect. To facilitate future biomarker studies for personalized therapy we will collect excess tumor tissue, whole blood, plasma and serum.

Вмешательства

• Лучевая терапия preoperative
  The radiotherapy will be delivered 2.85 Gy x 15 for both x-ray or proton radiotherapy. A comparative doseplan will decide if the patient will receive proton og x-ray radiotherapy.
