Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to look at whether an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based computer program can automate two components of the radiotherapy treatment pathway to a sufficient quality standard to enable its routine clinical use. The two components include the delineation (outlining) of anatomical areas that are at risk of tumour spread and at risk of radiation damage, and the definition of the position, size and shape of the radiation beams.

The AI-based computer programs have been developed to perform tasks that would normally require direct human involvement by oncologists and medical physicists. Proposed advantages include improved treatment accuracy, as well as a reduction in the time (from weeks to minutes) and human resources needed to deliver radiotherapy, which this study will test.

Interventions

Learn about the drugs, procedures, or behavioral strategies being tested and how they are applied within this trial.

A web-based artificial intelligence (AI) auto-planning tool

The CT scan taken at the time of treatment planning is uploaded to a web server called the Radiotherapy planning assistant which automates the contouring of target organs and areas of high-risk disease as well as defining the size, shape and number of radiotherapy beams to treat the cancer. The final plan is downloaded to the local treatment planning system where the doses are recalculated and clinical peer review is undertaken before the plan can be used clinically.

In this study patients will not be treated with the AI tool but the manual plan created by the local teams.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Consecutive patients with histologically confirmed head and neck cancers of the oropharynx, larynx, hypopharynx and nasopharynx (Stage I-III) that have given consent for radical radiotherapy.
2. Consecutive histologically confirmed primary cervical cancer patients (Stage IB-IIIB including pelvic node positive) that have given consent for radical radiotherapy.
3. Consecutive histologically confirmed primary prostate cancer patients (T1-4N0M0) that have given consent for radical radiotherapy.
4. Mental capacity to understand and consent to participate in the study.
5. Patients aged ≥18years.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Patients requiring radiotherapy after curative surgery or surgery that is intended to remove as much of the tumour as possible.
2. Patients receiving palliative radiotherapy
3. Patients aged \< 18years.
