Phase I/II Trial Evaluating Five Fraction SABR Dose Escalation for Early Stage Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung

Investigating Radiation Dosage for Lung Cancer Treatment

Recruiting
18 years and older
All
Phase N/A

This study investigates whether a specific type of radiation therapy, called stereotactic ablative body radiation (SABR), is safe and effective for treating early-stage squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. Squamous cell carcinoma is a kind of lung cancer that starts in the flat cells lining the lungs. The study aims to find out if patients can safely receive higher doses of radiation than what is currently standard.

Participants in this study will receive SABR, which involves targeted radiation treatment. The study will compare the effects of a higher dose of radiation to the standard dose to see if it better controls the cancer. The safety of these doses will also be evaluated throughout the study.

  • Who can participate: Individuals with a confirmed diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung can participate. Those who have previously received radiation therapy to the lung are not eligible.
  • Study details: Participants will receive a type of radiation treatment called SABR. The study will involve comparing different doses of radiation to determine their safety and effectiveness.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
