Condition: Lung Cancer

Conditions: Official terms:
Lung Neoplasms

Conditions: Keywords:
lung cancer

Study type: Interventional

Study phase: N/A

Overall status: Unknown status

Study design:

Allocation: N/A

Intervention model: Single Group Assignment

Primary purpose: Treatment

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Radiation
Intervention name: 4D-CT pre-treatment scan
Description: Undergo pre-treatment 4D-CT study for treatment planning External Beam Radiation: standard fractionation (2Gy per day) or stereotactic body radiation therapy Evaluation: Repeat 4D-CT study at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment
Arm group label: Study Arm

Other name: planning External Beam Radiation,

Other name: 4D-CT study

Summary: Eligible lung cancer patients: Undergo pre-treatment 4D-CT study for treatment planning External Beam Radiation: standard fractionation (2Gy per day) or stereotactic body radiation therapy Evaluation: Repeat 4D-CT study at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment Primary objectives: To assess pre-treatment global and focal lung strain and correlate with changes post-treatment

Detailed description: The study will be a prospective, non-randomized, single center, trial to assess and quantify lung strain using four dimensional CT (4D-CT) treatment planning scans. Patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer will be planned using 4D-CT to assess lung and tumor motion. Standard radiation treatment plans will to delivered based on tumor stage. Patients will be reassessed both clinically and radiographically using 4D-CT imaging at 3 months and 6 months post-treatment. Following the initial imaging time points, standard surveillance will be employed with clinical assessment and imaging at 3 month intervals for the first 2 years post-treatment.

Women of childbearing potential and male participants who are sexually active must agree to use a medically effective means of birth control 7. Patients must provide study specific informed consent prior to study entry. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with severe pulmonary dysfunction with non-reproducible tidal volumes sufficient for 4D-CT imaging. 2. Pregnant women or lactating women
