Adjuvant Simultaneously Integrated Boost Radiotherapy

Study type: Interventional

Study phase: Phase 2

Overall status: Recruiting

Study design:

Allocation: N/A

Intervention model: Single Group Assignment

Primary purpose: Treatment

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Radiation
Intervention name: Adjuvant SIB radiotherapy
Description: Eligibility patients will receive IMRT or VMAT to high risk area of tumor bed and tumor bed. The prescription dose to 95% GTVtb boost was planned at 55-60Gy, with PTV 45-50Gy, in 23-25 fractions,mainly depending on the dose constraints of OARs.
Arm group label: Adjuvant SIB radiotherapy

Summary: This is a single-arm prospective phase II clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant simultaneouslyintegrated boost radiotherapy following narrow-margin(<1cm) hepatectomy in patients with HCC. Eligibility patients will receive IMRT or VMAT to high risk area of tumor bed and tumor bed. The prescription dose to 95% GTVtb boost was planned at 55-60Gy, with PTV 45-50Gy, in 23-25 fractions, mainly depending on the dose constraints of OARs. The primary endpoint is the 3-year OS, the secondary endpoints are disease-free survival, patterns of failure, toxic events and local control rate.

Detailed description: Surgical resection is the primary treatment for HCC. However, it is associated with a high rate of recurrence and death. Based on the results of our retrospective study and phase II study, adjuvant radiotherapy is an effective, tolerable, and promising adjuvant regimen in patients with narrow-margin(<1cm) after hepatectomy. The 3-year and 5-year OS rates of 88.2% and 72.2% were significantly higher than the expected rates based on published reports and exceeded our predetermined threshold. However, there is no standard for the prescription dose. The high risk area of recurrence is mostly close to the blood vessels in the tumor bed, and simultaneously integrated boost (SIB) technique can optimize the target dose while protecting normal tissues. So, the investigators conducted this single-arm prospective phase II clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant SIB radiotherapy following narrow-margin(<1cm) hepatectomy in patients with HCC.
