NCT ID: NCT05786742 Recruiting - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

Ultra Hypofractionnated Radiotherapy With HDR Brachytherapy Boost.

HYPO-5
Start date: April 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Phase 1-2 study, comparing ultra-hypofractionnated (UH) to a moderately hypofractionnated (MH) radiation therapy, with image guided HDR prostate brachytherapy. Using iso-equivalent doses, a non-inferiority analysis will be done in order to prove UH non-inferior to MH, toxicity wise. Acceptability, tolerability, acute and late toxicity will be reported. MRI visible dominant intra-prostatic lesion will be outlines and variability between radiation oncologists and radiologists will be reported. As secondary objective, biochemical and clinical failure free survival will be reported at 5 & 10 years.

NCT ID: NCT05364411 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

HYpofractionated, Dose-redistributed RAdiotherapy With Protons and Photons in HNSCC

HYDRA
Start date: October 10, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Radiotherapy for advanced-stage head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) results in an unfavorable 5-year overall survival of 40%, and there is a strong biological rationale for improving outcome by combinatorial treatment with immunotherapy. However, also immunosuppressive effects of radiotherapy have been reported and recently a randomized phase-III trial failed to show any survival benefit following the combination of a PD-L1 inhibitor with chemoradiotherapy. The hypothesis is that the combination of these individually effective treatments failed because of radiation-induced lymphodepletion and that the key therefore lies in reforming conventional radiotherapy, which typically consists of large lymphotoxic radiation fields of 35 fractions. By integrating modern radiobiology and individually established innovative radiotherapy concepts, the patient's immune system could be maximally retained. This will be achieved by 1) increasing the radiation dose per fraction so that the total number of fractions can be reduced (HYpofractionation), 2) by redistributing the radiation dose towards a higher peak dose within the tumor center and a lowered elective-field dose (Dose-redistribution) and 3) by using RAdiotherapy with protons instead of photons (HYDRA). The objectives of this study are to determine the safety of HYDRA with protons and photons by conducting two parallel phase-I trials. HYDRA's efficacy will be compared to standard of care (SOC). The immune effects of HYDRA-protons will be evaluated by longitudinal immune profiling and compared to HYDRA-photons and SOC (with protons and photons). There will be a specific focus on actionable immune targets and their temporal patterns that can be tested in future hypofractionated-immunotherapy combination trials. This trial therefore is an important step towards future personalized immuno-radiotherapy combinations with the ultimate goal to improve survival for patients with HNSCC.

NCT ID: NCT04472845 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

HYPofractionated Adjuvant RadioTherapy in 1 Versus 2 Weeks in High-risk Patients With Breast Cancer (HYPART).

HYPART
Start date: March 30, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

We at PGIMER have been practicing hypofractionated radiotherapy in breast cancer patients for the last 4 decades. Our standard doses have been 35Gy/15#/3wks to the chest wall after mastectomy and 40Gy/16#/3wks after breast conserving surgery (BCS).It is also a routine practice in the UK and in a few centers in Canada. Hypofractionation reduces treatment time to half while maintaining cosmesis and gives control rates equal to conventional fractionation. As breast cancer is a leading cancer in females and radiation therapy is an important part of its local management, hypofractionation helps radiation centers worldwide to meet the growing need for radiation treatment in breast cancer, particularly in developing countries where resources are limited. It also reduces the financial burden on the patient and family. In this study we want to evaluate the impact of reducing the treatment duration from 3 weeks to 1 week. Eligible patients with breast cancer after mastectomy or BCS will be treated with a radiotherapy dose of 26Gy in 5 fractions over 1 week in the study arm and 40Gy in 15 fractions over 2 weeks in the control arm. The primary endpoint of this noninferiority study will be locoregional tumour control. Secondary endpoints will be early and late radiation toxicities, quality of life, contralateral primary tumours, regional and distant metastases, survival and second cancers. A total of 1018 patients will be randomised (1:1) to receive 1 week or 2 weeks of radiotherapy. An event-driven analysis will be performed after at least 94 patients have documented locoregional recurrences.

NCT ID: NCT03920033 Recruiting - Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials

Salvage Hypofractionated Accelerated Versus Standard Radiotherapy for Biochemical Failure After Prostatectomy

SHARE
Start date: May 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Patients with a biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy for moderate- or high- risk prostate cancer are randomly assigned to hypofractionated, accelerated high dose radiation therapy group (65 Gy, 26 fractions) and a control group of standard treatment group (66 Gy, 33 fractions). The criteria for stratification at randomization include 1) risk groups, 2) androgen deprivation therapy, and 3) PSA before salvage radiation therapy, which affect biochemical recurrence. It is expected that hypofractionated, accelerated high dose radiation therapy will have a superiority in terms of biochemical control to conventional radiation therapy, and the present study would like to confirm this. In addition, we aimed to evaluate and compare the toxicity and quality of life index of two radiation therapy regimens.
