LAttice Radiation Therapy for Large Lesions: Reggio Emilia Single-arm Phase II Trial (LART) Phase 2 56

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT07000162 (LART) is designed to study Treatment for Cancer, Palliative Radiotherapy. It is a Phase 2 interventional study that is recruiting, having started on May 26, 2025, with plans to enroll 56 participants. Led by Azienda USL Reggio Emilia - IRCCS, it is expected to complete by May 1, 2028. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on August 29, 2025.
Brief Summary
This study evaluates the activity and toxicity of Lattice Radiation Therapy (LRT) in patients with large, unresectable non-brain neoplastic lesions requiring palliative treatment. Eligible patients will 5 fractions LRT, delivered in every other day, to 20 Gy with a simultaneous boost to a minimum median dose of 50 Gy. No concomitant antineoplastic drugs will be allowed. Patients will be followed at 14, 30, 60, and 90...Show More

Radiation: A total dose will be 20 Gy, with a simultaneous boost to selected tumor regions (hot spots) reaching a minimum median dose of 50 Gy.
Lattice radiation therapy
A total dose will be 20 Gy, with a simultaneous boost to selected tumor regions (hot spots) reaching a minimum median dose of 50 Gy. Peripheral blood (PB) samples for the immune cell characterization and quantification of immune-related circulating factors will be collected at baseline (pre-therapy) and within 7 -14 days after the end of the treatment (post-therapy).
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Objective Response Rate
Percentage of patients with complete and partial response according to RECIST1.1 criteria
At 3 months following completion of Lattice radiation therapy
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Local Control
Percentage of patients with complete response, partial response, and stable disease according to RECIST1.1 criteria
At 3, 6,9, and 12 months following completion of Lattice radiation therapy.
Treatment-related toxicity
Percentage of patients with treatment-related adverse events measured by CTCAE version 5.0
1 year following completion of Lattice radiation therapy.
Patient-reported outcomes (Quality of life)
Scores modification compared to baseline at questionnaire EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire - Core 15 - Palliative care version), a 15-item scale with scores ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores on functional and global health status scales indicate better quality of life, while higher scores on symptom scales indicate worse symptom burden.
2 weeks, 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year
Patient-reported outcomes (Quality of life)
Scores modification compared to baseline at questionnaire PRO-CTCAE (Patient-Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events), a patient-reported outcome measure developed by the U.S. National Cancer Institute. Each item is scored on a 5-point scale (range: 0-4), where higher scores indicate greater symptom frequency, severity, or interference with daily activities.
2 weeks, 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year
