To explore the efficacy and toxicity of spatially fractionated radiotherapy in the treatment of tumors.
Spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) is a next-generation technology for precision cancer treatment. It delivers a highly inhomogeneous dose distribution in three-dimensional space, demonstrating high clinical response rates and minimal toxicity in bulky primary or metastatic malignancies. Conventional radiotherapy, which uniformly irradiates the entire tumor volume, often causes radiation damage to normal tissues, thereby limiting clinical efficacy. In contrast, spatially fractionated radiotherapy divides the treatment volume into sub-volumes, alternating high-dose and low-dose regions among these sub-volumes. Lattice radiotherapy is an advanced technique that integrates the technological advantages of radiosurgery and grid radiotherapy, achieving both biological and physical precision, and represents a novel radiotherapy approach for managing bulky and refractory tumors.
Exclusion Criteria:
Adding spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) to standard-of-care treatment.
Radiation: spatially fractionated radiotherapy
spatially fractionated radiotherapy
Number and percentage of participants with treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0
Safety will be assessed by the incidence of treatment-related adverse events graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5.0. The number and percentage of participants experiencing at least one treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse event during the specified assessment period will be reported. Treatment-related serious adverse events and grade 5 adverse events will also be summarized descriptively.Whether this study can be successfully executed and implemented.
Time frame: From initiation of spatially fractionated radiation therapy through 90 days after completion of radiotherapy
Percentage of participants who successfully complete the planned spatially fractionated radiation therapy without treatment discontinuation due to treatment-related toxicity or technical inability to deliver the planned treatment
Feasibility will be assessed by the proportion of enrolled participants who successfully complete the protocol-specified spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT). Successful completion is defined as delivery of the planned SFRT according to the protocol without premature discontinuation due to treatment-related toxicity or technical inability to deliver the planned treatment. The number and percentage of participants meeting this definition will be reported.
Time frame: From initiation through completion of the planned spatially fractionated radiation therapy
Objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by RECIST version 1.1
Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) in the irradiated target lesion(s), as assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1. The number and percentage of participants achieving CR or PR will be reported.
Time frame: From initiation of spatially fractionated radiation therapy until documented disease progression, initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy, death, or the end of follow-up, up to 2 years
Local progression-free survival (LPFS) as assessed by RECIST version 1.1
Local progression-free survival (LPFS) is defined as the time from initiation of spatially fractionated radiation therapy to the first documented local progression of the irradiated target lesion(s), as assessed according to RECIST version 1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Participants who are alive without documented local progression at the time of analysis will be censored at the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. LPFS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Time frame: From initiation of spatially fractionated radiation therapy until local disease progression or death from any cause, up to 2 years
