Clinical Trial Summary

This study uses a novel unconventional radiotherapy technique, consisting of high dose PArtial Tumor irradiation targeting exclusively the HYpoxic segment of unresectable bulky tumors delivered either with photons (SBRT-PATHY) or with carbon-ions (CARBON-PATHY) while sparing the peritumoral immune microenvironment (PIM).


Clinical Trial Description

This study will be conducted as a two phase study. Phase A is a retrospective study. Up to 10 patients with bulky (>6cm tumors) previous planned with planning CT with IV contrast will be selected for planning and dosimetry comparison. This is performed to optimize the contouring and planning procedures. Phase B is a prospective study. Ten patients with bulky (>6cm tumor) requiring radiotherapy, with planning CT and MR with IV contrast will be accrued. Every effort will be made to include equal numbers of patients (2-3) from head and neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvis. Their images will be used for planning and dosimetry comparison. Patients will be treated according to clinical plans. The study plans will not be used for treatment. Treatment plans for Photon delivery (SBRT-PATHY) and Carbon delivery (CARBON-PATHY) to deliver 30 Gy in three fractions will be planned to be delivered to the BTV will be performed. SBRT-PATHY plans will be generated at the Princess Margaret Cancer Center (PMCC, Toronto, Canada) while CARBON-PATHY plans will be generated at the MedAustron Center for Particle Therapy and Research (W. Neustadt, Austria). The objective is to compare the dosimetric profile achievable using SBRT-PATHY (using photons) and CARBON-PATHY (using carbon-ions) for unresectable bulky tumors and surrounding tissues. ;
