Clinical Trial Summary

Current dose escalation regimens with and without chemotherapy have failed to achieve improved local control and overall survival over standard of care therapy to date. Difficulties with dose escalation have been largely due to dose limiting toxicities of surrounding normal organs, in particular to the normal lung parenchyma, and esophagus. Real time, online adaptive planning using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could achieve significant volume reduction of primary lung disease over the course of therapy, thereby reducing dose to normal structures, and providing a mechanism in which to dose escalate safely, and more effectively with accurate target delineation.

The investigators hypothesize that MRI based adaptive planning will provide a novel method to dose escalate safely with acceptable organ at risk doses. In addition, further improvements in radiotherapy targeting accuracy, normal tissue avoidance, and conformality of target-tissue coverage will be achieved through the use of 4D real-time tracking which is derived by deformably registering daily MR and planning MR (MRsim) and Computed Tomography Simulator (CTsim) with advanced non-rigid image-registration tools.

2. Evidence of distant metastases.

3. Patients with evidence of a malignant pleural or pericardial effusion.

4. Previous systemic chemotherapy (for any cancer) or pelvic radiation therapy

6. Prior radiotherapy that would result in overlap of radiation fields

7. Patients taking drugs with potential nephrotoxicity or ototoxicity (such as aminoglycosides)

8. Pregnancy or women of childbearing potential and men who are sexually active and not willing/able to use medically acceptable forms of contraception; this exclusion is necessary because the treatment involved in this study may be significantly teratogenic

9. Prior allergic reaction to the study drug(s) involved in this protocol

10. Patients with T4 disease with radiographic evidence of invasion of a large pulmonary artery and tumor causing significant narrowing and destruction of that artery are excluded.

11. Severe active co-morbidity:

• Unstable angina and/or congestive heart failure requiring hospitalization within the last 6 months

• Transmural myocardial infarction within the last 6 months

• Acute bacterial or fungal infection requiring intravenous antibiotics at the time of registration

• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease exacerbation or other respiratory illness requiring hospitalization or precluding study therapy at the time of registration

• Hepatic insufficiency resulting in clinical jaundice and/or coagulation defects (Note: laboratory tests for liver function and coagulation parameters are not required for entry into this protocol)

• Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) based upon current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) definition (Note: HIV testing is not required for entry into this protocol) The need to exclude patients with AIDS from this protocol is necessary because the treatments involved in this protocol may be significantly immunosuppressive. Protocol-specific requirements may also exclude immune-compromised patients

Intervention

Device:
• ViewRay MRI
ViewRay Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Radiation:
• Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Boost
In the (week 5), all patients will have a week 5 MRI and Four-dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) for purposes of planning Phase II boost. Gross tumors < 5 cm will receive a MR-based adaptive replanning Stereo boost of 80 Gy - 90 Gy (20 Gy-30 Gy in 5 fractions). Gross tumors < 5cm will receive an MR-based adaptive replan fractionated boost to 74 Gy at 2.4 Gy/day. Individualized radiation therapy prescription to primary tumor will maintain organs at risk (OAR) constraints to lung including mean lung dose (MLD) < 20 Gy with V20 < 37%. Simultaneously, MRI-based adaptive replanning boost of 12 Gy in 5 fractions (2.4 Gy/day) will be given to gross lymph nodes. Final doses prescribed will be limited by doses to all OARs.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Rate of Locoregional Failure/Progression (LRF/LRP) in Study Participants Receiving Protocol Therapy.	MRI-based adaptative radiation planning can provide a method for dose escalation to improve locoregional Failure (LRF/LRP) rates at 2 years in study participants. Locoregional failure/progression (LRF/LRP) will be defined as development of progressive lung cancer centered within 1 cm from the initial planning target volume (PTV). Progressive disease in any of the 14 nodal stations will be considered as regional recurrence. Progression will be assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria. with integration of MRI/CT.	Up to 2 Years After Protocol Therapy
Primary	Rate of Severe Treatment-Induced Toxicity	Rate of severe (grade 3 CTCAE, v.4) radiation-induced lung toxicity (RILT) and other severe adverse events, including grade 3+ (CTCAE, v.4) esophagitis, or grade 2 pericardial effusions, or any grade cardiac adverse events related to chemo-radiation using MRI-based adaptive planning vs. historical controls using conventional plans.	Up to 2 Years Post-End of Protocol Therapy
Secondary	Rate of Overall Survival (OS) in Study Participants	Rate of overall survival in study participants using MRI-based adaptive planning vs historical controls. Overall survival is defined as the length of time from the start of treatment that study participants are still alive.	Up to 3 years after protocol therapy.
Secondary	Rate of Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in Study Participants	Rate of progression-free survival in study participants using MRI-based adaptive planning vs historical controls. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the length of time that passes from the start date of protocol therapy until the date on which disease "progresses" or the date on which the participant dies, from any cause. Disease progression will be assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria.	Up to 3 years after protocol therapy.
Secondary	Rate of Lung Cancer-Specific Survival	Rate of Lung Cancer-specific survival in study participants using MRI-based adaptive planning vs historical controls. Lung cancer-specific survival is defined as the length of time that passes from the date of diagnosis or start date of protocol therapy until the date of death from lung cancer.	Up to 3 years after protocol therapy.
Secondary	Comparison of Gross Tumor Volumes (GTV) defined by MRI vs. FanBeam CT (FBCT) at CT Simulation and at each adaptive planning time point.	Gross tumor volumes (GTVs) at a specific time point between MRI and Fan Bean CT will be compared using Mann-Whitney test.	Daily Up to 5 weeks after start of protocol therapy
Secondary	Development of a Database consisting all Daily MR data sets to support further research.	Potential applications include determination of optimal adaptive planning frequency and the benefits of basing IGART on 4D anatomic datasets derived from deformably registering daily MR and planning FBCT and MR datasets.	Up to 5 years
Secondary	Predictivity of Volumetric Changes in MRI Imaging for Locoregional failure/progression (LRP) and Organs at Risk (OARs) toxicity.	Predictivity of volumetric changes in MRI imaging for LRP and OAR toxicity will be assessed using time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) method and regular ROC method, respectively.	Up to 5 years
