Summary:
This study proposes 6 anatomic groupings which each can be defined similarly as the "head
and neck" grouping above. These 6 groupings are: (1) Head and Neck, (2) Thoracic not
including lung parenchymal, (3) Hepatobiliary and other non-hepatobiliary abdominal
tumors, (4) Retroperitoneal, (5) Pelvic, and (6) Distributed or orphan. The study is
designed to gather essential imaging data on the RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System
(RMRS) to validate the accuracy of FDG-directed BgRT, also known as SCINTIX therapy, in
various anatomical groupings. Study subjects will go through the entire SCINTIX treatment
workflow, including radiopharmaceutical administration and live PET imaging, but without
turning on the treatment beam. Collected data will be used offline to generate the set of
machine instructions that would have been used during treatment delivery to calculate the
"emulated" BgRT dose distribution, i.e., what the delivered dose would have been had the
treatment beam been turned on during the session. The 6th category ("Distributed or
orphan") is meant to capture tumor types that can manifest across anatomies and/or for
which utilization of stereotactic radiotherapy for treatment is relatively rare, with
lymphomas being a prototypical example.
Detailed description:
Ablative radiotherapy has become an integral tool for the treatment of primary tumors and
metastatic lesions across the human body. Because ablative radiotherapy techniques like
stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) involve
delivering high doses of radiotherapy in a few fractions, they have the potential to
cause serious injury to normal tissues near the target lesion. Therefore, a standard
concern for radiation oncologists is to conformally and precisely deliver ablative
radiotherapy while maximally sparing surrounding organs and tissues. This goal is
relevant throughout the anatomy and pertains as much to tumors in the head and neck as it
does to those in the pelvis.
Biology-guided radiotherapy is a novel radiotherapy delivery mechanism that achieves
precision by aiming beamlets of external radiotherapy by tracking PET emissions that
originate from the target after it has taken up an injected radiotracer. Because the
radiotherapy beamlets are guided to the tumor in real-time, this technology holds strong
promise for reducing margins around the target and thereby reducing normal tissue
toxicities.
Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age greater than 21 years.
2. A new or prior diagnosis of biopsy-proven cancer.
3. At least one active non-osseous primary or metastatic tumor that is located in one
of the assigned anatomical groupings and dispositioned to undergo 3-5 fractions of
SBRT. A lesion is considered active if viable malignancy is confirmed either by
biopsy or by diagnostic imaging (as interpreted by the multidisciplinary care team).
4. Target tumor size ≥2cm and ≤5cm.
5. Target tumor is discrete and assessed by investigator to meet diagnostic PET
screening criteria for BgRT candidacy:
1. SUVmax≥6, as assessed on diagnostic PET/CT performed within 60 days of
enrollment with no new intervening oncologic therapies.
2. Ratio of target tumor SUVmax to SUVmean of local background region (defined as
a 3 mm shell 1.5 cm from the target tumor) is greater than 6, as assessed on
diagnostic PET/CT performed within 60 days of enrollment with no new
intervening oncologic therapies.
6. ECOG Performance Status 0-3.
7. Must have completed any other oncologic therapies at least 15 days prior to planned
start of study procedures (preferably 30 days) and must have no plans to initiate
systemic therapy until after study follow up is complete -OR- must be recorded by
physician to have an active lesion that is unresponsive to ongoing systemic therapy.
8. Females of childbearing potential should have a negative urine or serum pregnancy
test within 14 days prior to initiation of study scans.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Clinically significant blood glucose abnormalities that preclude a satisfactory FDG
PET/CT scan.
2. Lung parenchymal and bone target tumors
3. At the physician's discretion regarding expected target motion, FDG-avid structures
not intended for radiation are within:
1. 3 cm from target on diagnostic PET/CT in directions where limited target motion
is expected
2. 4 cm from target on diagnostic PET/CT in directions where sizable target motion
is expected
4. Known allergy to FDG.
5. Known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder that would interfere with conduct of
the study.
6. Pregnant, breast-feeding or expecting to conceive during the study.
7. Patient weight exceeding the weight limit outlined per user manual.
8. Patients with pacemakers and other implantable devices deemed at high risk by the
treating physician for complications secondary to radiotherapy, according to
institutional guidelines and published guidelines (e.g. AAPM task group-203).
9. Active inflammatory bowel disease, scleroderma, or other disorder deemed by the
treating physician to put the patient at risk for excess toxicity in the setting of
external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) or FDG injection.
