Official title
Phase I Dose Escalation Study of Accelerated Fractionation With Esophageal Sparing Using Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy for Locally-Advanced Thoracic Malignancies Including a Prospective Assessment of Esophageal Motion and Radiation-Induced Esophageal Injury
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Hypothesis 1- Using IMRT, the radiation therapy (RT) dose can be safely escalated from 58 Gy to 74 Gy given as 6 fractions/week with concurrent chemotherapy. Hypothesis 2- Esophageal motion can be used to customize planning organ at risk volumes. Hypothesis 3- Biological predictors of acute esophagitis can be used to identify patients at high risk of developing esophageal toxicity from radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
