Pilot Study of Respiratory-gated Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Borderline Resectable, Unresectable, or Recurrent/Residual Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas or Periampullary Region
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Stereotactic Body Radiation for Pancreatic Neoplasms. Completed, enrolled 36 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This is a single center, single arm unblinded prospective study of the safety of pancreatic stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with unresectable, borderline resectable, or recurrent pancreatic/periampullary cancers who have previously undergone treatment with chemotherapy, surgery, photodynamic therapy, conventionally fractionated radiation treatment, or any combination of these therapies. Primary Objective • To estimate rates of acute (within 3 months of treatment) grade 3 or greater gastrointestinal and hematologic toxicity in patients treated with Linac-based SBRT for pancreatic or periampullary cancers who have previously received other treatment. Secondary Objectives * To estimate rates of late (\> 3 months after treatment) grade 2 gastritis, enteritis, fistula, and ulcer, or any other grade 3 or greater gastrointestinal toxicity in patients treated with Linac-based SBRT for pancreatic or periampullary cancers * To estimate rates of local progression, overall survival, metastasis-free survival, and progression-free survival in patients with pancreatic or periampullary cancers treated with fractionated Linac-based SBRT. * To evaluate the ability of Linac-based SBRT to provide pain control in patients with pain related to a pancreatic or periampullary tumor. * To evaluate quality of life in patients undergoing treatment with Linac-based SBRT for pancreatic or periampullary cancers.
