Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma and Carbon Ion Only Irradiation (ACCO) Phase 2 314 Open-Label Combination Therapy Investigator-Initiated Overall Survival

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT04214366 (ACCO) is designed to study Treatment for Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. It is a Phase 2 interventional study that is recruiting, having started on 1 December 2019, with plans to enroll 314 participants. Led by Heidelberg University, it is expected to complete by 1 December 2032. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 30 November 2023.
Brief Summary
Adenoid cystic tumors are rare tumors of the head and neck region. Despite their slow growth, re-irradiation is often necessary due to the high metastatic risk. Patients are usually irradiated with photons or, as here at the Heidelberg University Hospital, with a combination of carbon ions and photons. So far, there is no data from Europe available for the sole irradiation with carbon ions. The present ACCO (Adenoid ...Show More
