Study to Evaluate Percussive Ventilation Breathhold to Improve Lung Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy
Recruiting
I'm InterestedTrial ID: NCT05283564
Purpose
The purpose of this research is to evaluate and determine the rate of successful administration of Percussive ventilation breathhold (PVB) to allow for more accurate radiotherapy for lung tumors.
Official Title
A Pilot Study to Evaluate Percussive Ventilation Breathhold to Improve Lung Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (PVB-SABR)
Stanford Investigator(s)
Billy W Loo
Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Therapy)
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
Arm 1: Healthy volunteers age 18 or older
Arm 1: Ability to understand and the willingness to sign (personally or by a legal authorized representative) the written IRB approved informed consent document.
Arm 2: Patients with a diagnosis of primary lung cancer or lung metastases of any primary tumor origin
Arm 2: Patients deemed clinically eligible to be treated with standard of care lung SABR for patient arm
Arm 2: Patients of any gender age 18 or older
Arm 2: Patients with ECOG Performance Status 0-2 and select patients with Performance Status 3 deemed to be suitable candidates based on common sense clinical judgment on the risks versus benefits of SABR
Arm 2: Ability to understand and the willingness to sign (personally or by a legal authorized representative) the written IRB approved informed consent document.
Exclusion Criteria:
Arm 1: No Pregnant Individuals. All individuals of child bearing potential (last menstrual period within the previous 12 months and not surgically sterile) will be tested for pregnancy and documented by study team.
Arm 2: Patients clinically deemed ineligible for standard of care lung SABR treatment for the patient arm (for example, excessive tumor size, individuals who are pregnant or breast feeding, severe pulmonary fibrosis are relative contraindications for lung SABR and are part of standard of care clinical decision making).
Arm 2: Patients with newly-developed pneumothorax
Arm 2: Patients with critical acute illness precluding SABR in the judgment of the treating physician (examples could include active pulmonary embolism and infection requiring inpatient care)
Arm 2: Patients with ECOG Performance Status 4
Intervention(s):
other: Percussive Ventilation Breathhold SABR (PVB-SABR)
