PHASE1

Brief Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (CRT) or intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in treating patients with recurrent tumors....

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of reirradiation with the pulsed low dose rate technique. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To investigate the dosimetric tolerance of no...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients must have recurrent or metastatic tumor located within a previously irradiated field
  • Tumor within the irradiated field is negatively impacting patient's quality of life or threatening catastrophic complication if left untreated as determined by the treating physician
  • Patient is not a candidate for, or has not demonstrated a significant local response to chemotherapy, biologic, hormonal ,or other therapies
  • Patient is not a surgical candidate or tumor is not surgically resectable, as documented by surgical oncologist
  • Information on previous radiation treatment, including total dose and fractionation must be available; additional information including radiation fields and dose-volume-histogram or isodose lines is preferable
  • Tumor sites eligible for inclusion on this protocol include thorax, abdomen, and pelvis
  • Patients must have measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 in the previously irradiated field
  • Women of childbearing potential must be non-pregnant (negative pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to radiation simulation, postmenopausal woman must have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential) and nonlactating, and men and women must be willing to exercise an effective form of birth control (abstinence/contraception) while on study and for 3 months after therapy completed
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status determined to be between 0 and 3
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1,500/ul
  • Platelets (PLT) \>= 75,000/ul
  • Subjects must sign a written informed consent and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) consent prior to performance of study-specific procedures or assessments and must be willing to comply with treatment and follow-up

Exclusion

  • Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy to the reirradiation target within 4 weeks prior to entering the study
  • Concurrent chemotherapy or biologic therapy
  • A history of ataxia telangiectasia or other documented history of radiation hypersensitivity
  • Scleroderma or active connective tissue disease
  • For abdominal or pelvic irradiation: active inflammatory bowel disease
  • Serious, active infections requiring treatment with intravenous (IV) antibiotics
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Reirradiation targets located within the head, neck, or brain are excluded from this study
