Spatiotemporal Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Polymetastatic Solid Tumors (NCT05733949)

A Pilot Study of Spatiotemporal SBRT for Poly-Metastatic Cancer

🟢 Recruiting Early Phase1 🩺 Clinical Procedure Protocol Sponsor: City of Hope Medical Center

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of spatiotemporal stereotactic body radiation therapy (ST-SBRT) in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (polymetastatic). SBRT uses special equipment to position a patient and deliver radiation to tumors with high precision. This method may kill tumor cells with fewer doses over a shorter period and cause less damage to normal tissue. ST-SBRT is designed to deliver radiation directly to the core of the tumor, while keeping the radiation exposure of the area around the tumor at minimal dosage.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (11 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (8 items).

Location: City of Hope Medical Center — Duarte, California

Age range: 18 Years

Instant Checklist

Check every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:

  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • Judgement by the investigator that the patient is unsuitable to participate in the study and the patient is unlikely to comply with study procedures, restrictions, and requirements
  • Those not eligible for SBRT after review by a radiation oncologist
  • Serous medical comorbidities precluding radiotherapy
  • Unable to undergo a CT scan
  • Pregnant and/or breastfeeding women are excluded from this study as these agents may have the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Female patients of childbearing potentially must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to receiving therapy
  • On active systemic therapy
  • Prospective participants who, in the opinion of the investigator, may not be able to comply with all study procedures (including compliance issues related to feasibility/logistics)
