Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 42 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2025-06-10

Brief Summary

This is a monocentric, non-randomized, open-label, superiority phase II clinical investigation evaluating the efficacy of additional Cyberknife irradiation after a doublet of Platinum Salts-based chemotherapy and concomitant radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), with an interim analysis.

Conditions

Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

Study Design

• Allocation Method: NA
• Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP
• Primary Study Purpose: TREATMENT
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

Experimental Arms

After their radiochemotherpy (Taxcis protocol), the eligible patients will be included in the study and will have a Cyberknife boost (5 sessions of 8 Gray, over 2 weeks maximum). They will have follow-up visits for 2 years post-treatment. Then, their disease and survival status will be recorded until 5 years post-treatment.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Cyberknife irradiation

Intervention Type: RADIATION

Additional Cyberknife irradiation after a doublet of Platinum Salts-based chemotherapy and concomitant radiotherapy in inoperable patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma
