Phase I Trial of Personalized Accelerated ChEmoRadiation (PACER) for Lung Cancer

NCT ID: NCT06080061Sponsor: Stanford UniversityLast updated: 2026-04-07

Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the use of hypofractionated accelerated radiation therapy (HART) to treat locally advanced lung cancer. Depending on the location and size of the tumor.

Arms & interventions

  • RadiationHypofractionated accelerated radiation therapy

    Hypofractionated accelerated radiation therapy

Outcome measures

Primary

  • Dose limiting pulmonary and esophageal toxicity

    Toxicities will be scored by the CTCAE v5.0 criteria. Specific toxicities evaluated are grade 2+ pneumonitis and grade 3+ esophagitis as well as other G3+ pulmonary, esophageal or cardiac toxicities that could be probably or definitely attributed to rT.

    Time frame: 9 months

Secondary

  • Acute and Late Toxicities

    Time frame: 36 months

  • Integrated adaptive dosing regimen with an automated planning system

    Time frame: 36 months

  • Progression free survival

    Time frame: 36 months

  • Overall survival

    Time frame: 36 months

  • Local control

    Time frame: 36 months

Eligibility criteria

Sex: AllAge: 18 Years and olderHealthy volunteers: No
Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically or cytologically documented malignancy of the lung including non-small cell lung cancer or small cell lung cancer planned for definitive therapy with fractionated radiation (60-66 Gy) and concurrent systemic therapy * ECOG performance status of 0-2 * Age ≥ 18 years old * Ability to understand and the willingness to personally sign the written IRB approved informed consent document * Estimated life expectancy of 12 weeks or longer Exclusion Criteria: * Contraindication to receiving radiotherapy or systemic therapy as determined by treating radiation and medical oncologist * Age \< 18 years old * Tumor directly invading the major pulmonary arteries, aorta, heart or proximal bronchial tree * Diagnosis of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis * Previous radiation therapy to the thorax that would result in overlapping high dose radiation fields
