About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Adult Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients may have either metastatic lesions from another primary site or primary hepatocellular carcinoma; patients with one histologically confirmed metastatic lesion of the liver who are presenting for local therapy for lesions concerning for metastases that cannot or should not be biopsied will also be considered for enrollment on a case by case basis; patients can simultaneously receive treatment for multiple hepatic lesions meeting the prior two requirements, at the discretion of the treating radiation oncologist

- Ability to understand and willingness to sign a written informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Pregnant women, or women of childbearing potential who are sexually active and not willing/able to use medically acceptable forms of contraception for the entire study period and for up to 4 weeks after the study
- Refusal to sign the informed consent
- Patients who are participating in a concurrent treatment protocol
- Patients for whom a plan meeting institutional quality criteria cannot be designed for SBRT treatment via the MRI-guided teletherapy unit, but for whom an SBRT plan meeting institutional quality criteria can be designed for a conventional linear accelerator

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Treatment (MRI-guided Tri-60Co teletherapy SBRT)
Arm Description
Patients undergo MRI-guided Tri-60Co teletherapy SBRT 3-5 fractions over 1-2 weeks.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Plan quality of the MRI guided radiotherapy vs. conventional linac radiotherapy.
Comparing the plan quality of the MRI guided radiotherapy to conventional determined by the ability to create treatment plans that are comparable to those generated by a conventional linear accelerator, and by the treating radiation oncologist's ability to accurately visualize and align to the target lesion
Feasibility of SBRT delivery by the MRI-guided tri-60Co teletherapy system, calculated by recording the number of patients for whom plans were or were not comparable between the two modalities
Magnitude of target motion in three dimensional space as captured by real time imaging acquired by the MRI guided tri-60 Co teletherapy system
Velocity of target motion in three dimensional space as captured by real time imaging acquired by the MRI guided tri-60 Co teletherapy system
Quality of real-time image guidance provided the tri-60Co system, as defined by the treating radiation oncologist's ability to visualize the target lesion using the on-board MRI
Secondary Outcome Measures
Collection of biomarkers that may be associated with an immunologic systemic response to SBRT
DSS
Frequency of acute grade 2-5 gastrointestinal toxicity graded using the Common Toxicity Criteria version 4.0
Infield tumor LC
OS
Validity of automatically segmented contours generated by the MRI-guided tri-60Co teletherapy system through independent evaluation of images obtained

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This pilot clinical trial studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating patients with liver metastases or liver cancer. SBRT is a specialized radiation therapy that delivers a single, high dose of radiation directly to the tumor and may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Combining MRI with SBRT may help doctors to highlight the tissues surrounding the tumor better.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To assess the feasibility of utilizing an MRI-guided tri-60Co teletherapy system for liver SBRT, as determined the treating radiation oncologist's ability to accurately visualize and align to the target lesion(s).
II. To assess the feasibility of using a three versus five fraction scheme, for one versus multiple (i.e., =< 5) target lesions.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the tumor local control (LC), disease specific survival (DSS), and overall survival (OS).
II. To gather biomarkers that may elucidate differential immunogenic responses from the three versus the five fraction SBRT regimens.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo MRI-guided Tri-60Co teletherapy SBRT 3-5 fractions over 1-2 weeks.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at approximately 4-6 weeks, and then every 3 months for 2 years.
