About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Synovial Sarcoma focused on measuring Whole Lung IMRT, 14-075

Eligibility Criteria

1 Year - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with synovial sarcoma confirmed by MSKCC pathological review
  • Patients with single or multiple lung metastases at diagnosis or that develop over the course of treatment. After completion of all chemotherapy, lung metastases or must be ≤ 2cm.
  • Age ≥12 months of age
  • Karnofsky performance status (KPS) must be ≥ 70 for patients ≥ 16 years of age and Lansky performance status must be ≥ 70 for patients < 16 years of age.
  • Normal cardiac function
  • No active coronary artery disease;
  • No New York Heart Association class II, III or IV disease;
  • No arrhythmia requiring treatment.
  • Baseline echocardiogram with a shortening fraction of ≥27% or an ejection fraction ≥ 50%.
  • Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 14 days of radiation start.
  • Female patients who are lactating must agree to stop breast-feeding.
  • Sexually active patients of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with a history of prior radiation therapy to the thorax.
  • Patients requiring a field size >40 cm as IMRT cannot be performed at extended SSDs.
  • Patients with any concurrent medical or psychiatric condition or disease which, in the investigator's judgment, would make them inappropriate candidates for entry into this study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Whole Lung IMRT

Arm Description

This is a single institution study involving patients with synovial sarcoma who have completed all standard therapy (e.g. surgery +/- radiation to the primary site) +/- any adjuvant chemotherapy. The sequence and types of therapy offered prior to WLI will likely vary based on primary tumor site, tumor resectability, extent of metastatic disease, performance status, and comorbidity. Each patient's therapy will be determined by the disease management team irrespective of participation on this protocol.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of Participants Evaluated for Toxicity
The CTCAE version 4.0 scale will be used. The radiation oncologist will score toxicity at each visit.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Pulmonary Failure-free Survival
A CT scan of the chest will be obtained. This study will use a modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) for assessment of tumor response. Pulmonary failure-free survival will be defined as survival with no progressive disease in the lungs.
Rates of Overall Survival (OS)
Overall survival rates will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, radiation has on the lungs has on the patient and on synovial sarcoma which has spread to the lungs. The standard treatment for synovial sarcoma which has spread to the lungs is chemotherapy with or without surgery to remove the tumors in the lungs. However, tumors often come back in the lungs after chemotherapy and/or surgery. Since synovial sarcoma is known to be sensitive to radiation, this study is looking at whether radiation therapy which is targeted to the entire lung can further reduce the chances of the cancer returning. This type of radiation is commonly used in other types of sarcoma to treat the cancer once it has spread to the lungs and it may be very useful in synovial sarcoma as well. In this study, a special type of radiation will be used, called Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). With IMRT the radiation beams are more customized to focus more radiation on the tumor cells while delivering less radiation to areas like the heart. The goal of this study is also to measure pulmonary toxicity and see if IMRT is feasible and has less toxicity.

8. Arms, Groups, and Interventions

Arm Title
Whole Lung IMRT
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Description
This is a single institution study involving patients with synovial sarcoma who have completed all standard therapy (e.g. surgery +/- radiation to the primary site) +/- any adjuvant chemotherapy. The sequence and types of therapy offered prior to WLI will likely vary based on primary tumor site, tumor resectability, extent of metastatic disease, performance status, and comorbidity. Each patient's therapy will be determined by the disease management team irrespective of participation on this protocol.
Intervention Type
Radiation
Intervention Name(s)
Whole Lung IMRT
Intervention Description
External beam radiation therapy will be administered on an outpatient basis, once daily (except weekends and holidays) for approximately two weeks. Patients will undergo a simulation prior to initiation of radiation. Once an IMRT plan is generated which meets all dose constraints specified patients will be treated with 6MV photons for 10 treatments.
Primary Outcome Measure Information:
Title
Number of Participants Evaluated for Toxicity
Description
The CTCAE version 4.0 scale will be used. The radiation oncologist will score toxicity at each visit.
Time Frame
within 3 months of the completion of treatment or 3 months following the completion of treatment.
Secondary Outcome Measure Information:
