AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the outer part of the lung. They would be treated with proton radiation given in one large dose.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- All sexes can join
- Disease stage
- Early-stage NSCLC: tumour T1 (3 cm (1.2 in) or smaller), N0M0, more than 2 cm (0.8 in) away from the main airways, confirmed by cytology or histology, or by imaging and a team decision if a biopsy is not safe
- Earlier treatment
- No chest radiotherapy in the past. No other anti-tumour treatment planned within 4 weeks of the trial treatment.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Another cancer within 2 years before joining
- Chest radiotherapy in the past
- Other anti-tumour treatment planned within 4 weeks of the trial treatment
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 11 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- The patient must be at least 18 years old
- Karnofsky Performance Status > 80
- NSCLC confirmed by cytology or histology; for subjects who cannot safely obtain pathological evidence due to factors such as tumor lesion location, patient's underlying diseases, or high puncture risk, after unanimous consent of the multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussion, they meet the clinical diagnostic criteria for NSCLC based on typical imaging features (such as enhanced chest CT and/or PET/CT) combined with clinical manifestations
- Early-stage tumors are defined as T1 (≤3cm) N0M0 based on enhanced computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET)
- The tumor must be more than 2 cm away from the proximal bronchial tree in all directions (the proximal bronchial tree is defined as 2 cm from the distal end of the trachea, the protrusion and the named lobar bronchus up to its first bifurcation)
- FEV1 ≥ 1 L, FEV1 ≥ 40% of the predicted value (either one is sufficient); DLCO ≥ 40% of the predicted value
- The patient can tolerate PET-CT examination
- For female study participants of childbearing age, the urine or serum pregnancy test was negative within 7 days prior to the first administration of the study drug. If the result of the urine pregnancy test is positive, a blood pregnancy test is required
Who cannot take part
- Other malignant tumors occurred concurrently within 2 years before enrollment
- A history of chest radiotherapy in the past
- It is planned to use other anti-tumor treatments within the regimen treatment (within 4 weeks)
