MRI - Guided Adaptive RadioTHerapy for Reducing XerostomiA in Head and Neck Cancer (MARTHA-trial)...
Head and Neck CancerXerostomia Due to RadiotherapyRadiotherapy is the main treatment for locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). Many advances regarding tumor control and patient survival have been made over the past decades. However, treatment-induced toxicity remains a crucial problem, leading to reduced quality of life and permanent impairment for many survivors. Xerostomia is up to this day the leading cause of late toxicity for these patients. Toxicity has been reduced by implementation of modern image guided radiotherapy (IGRT) and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), but the low soft-tissue contrast of routine x-ray image guidance does not allow exact planning adaptation and daily imaging is associated with high radiation exposure. Furthermore, despite the routinely use of IMRT, rates of clinically relevant xerostomia (i.e. grade 2 or worse) are still common and reported in approximately 38%. Recently developed hybrid machines (MRidian®-CE approval since 2016), consisting of a linear accelerator and an integrated low-field MRI, could allow a) better visualization of tumor and organs at risk, such as parotid glands during patient positioning and daily treatment, b) daily imaging without additional radiation exposure, c) narrowest established safety margins for the treatment volumes, and finally d) repetitive adaptation of target volumes according to changes in patient weight and tumor anatomy during the radiotherapy course. These procedures would facilitate a high-precision treatment and help reduce dose exposure of critical structures.
Evaluating 111In Panitumumab for Nodal Staging in Head and Neck Cancer
Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaRecurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaThis phase I trial tests the safety and effectiveness of indium In 111 panitumumab (111In-panitumumab) for identifying the first lymph nodes to which cancer has spread from the primary tumor (sentinel lymph nodes) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) undergoing surgery. The most important factor for survival for many cancer types is the presence of cancer that has spread to the lymph nodes (metastasis). Lymph node metastases in patients with head and neck cancer reduce the 5-year survival by half. Sometimes, the disease is too small to be found on clinical and imaging exams before surgery. 111In-panitumumab is in a class of medications called radioimmunoconjugates. It is composed of a radioactive substance (indium In 111) linked to a monoclonal antibody (panitumumab). Panitumumab binds to EGFR receptors, a receptor that is over-expressed on the surface of many tumor cells and plays a role in tumor cell growth. Once 111In-panitumumab binds to tumor cells, it is able to be seen using an imaging technique called single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT). SPECT/CT can be used to make detailed pictures of the inside of the body and to visualize areas where the radioactive drug has been taken up by the cells. Using 111In-panitumumab with SPECT/CT imaging may improve identification of sentinel lymph nodes in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer undergoing surgery.
