Single vs. Multiple Fraction Trial of Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Comprehensive Treatment of Oligometastases/Progression
Canada598 participantsStarted 2025-04-16
Plain-language summary
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) is a modern RT technique that delivers high doses of radiation to small tumor targets using highly conformal techniques, while trying to avoid healthy tissues and organs. However, SABR treatment requires increased planning, treatment time, cost and potential for higher toxicity due to the higher dose. The purpose of this study is to compare single fraction (SF) SABR vs. multiple fraction (MF) SABR in regards to toxicities, progression-free survival, quality of life (QoL), and cost-effectiveness. In a subset of patients, we will also compare patient QoL, hospitalization rates, and cost-effectiveness between patients who complete QoL questionnaires, record symptoms and receive healthcare provider-guided intervention vs. patients who complete QoL questionnaires only.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* 1-5 current oligometastatic or oligo-progressive lesions
* Age 18 years or older
* Able to provide informed consent
* Able to complete electronic entry of patient reported outcomes and questionnaires independently or with assistance from a caregiver/family/friend/research staff using electronic methods after providing consent to email use.
* Life expectancy \> 6 months
* Histologically confirmed malignancy with metastatic disease detected on imaging. Biopsy of metastasis is preferred, but not required.
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2
* Controlled primary tumor: defined as at least 3 months since original tumor treated radically, with no progression at primary site (can be considered controlled if no evidence of the primary tumour on imaging \[e.g. primary unknown\])
* A history and physical examination, including ECOG performance status, performed within 6 weeks prior to enrollment
* Patient has had a CT chest, abdomen and pelvis or PET-CT within 10 weeks prior to enrollment, and within 13 weeks prior to treatment
* Patient has had a nuclear bone scan (if no positron emission tomography-computed tomography \[PET-CT\]) within 10 weeks prior to enrollment, and within 13 weeks prior to treatment
* Patient has had CT or MRI brain imaging if primary has a propensity for central nervous system metastases (if deemed appropriate by the treating investigator) within 10 weeks prior to enrollment, and within 13 weeks prior to tre…
