Study Summary

This trial tests AI to help improve dose prescription for lung radiation therapy to help reduce local recurrence.

Who is the study for?
Adults (18+) with primary lung cancer or a few metastatic tumors in the lungs, able to perform daily activities (ECOG 0-2), and not pregnant can join. They must understand and sign consent. Excluded are those with prior overlapping radiotherapy, unresolved thoracic toxicities from past treatments, concurrent investigational drugs, other interfering malignancies, or uncontrolled illnesses.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The RAD-AI study is testing if AI can improve dose recommendations during SBRT for lung cancer treatment. It aims to see if personalized AI predictions lead to better outcomes by reducing local recurrence of the disease while minimizing damage to healthy tissue.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
SBRT may cause side effects like skin irritation at the treatment site, fatigue, shortness of breath due to inflammation in the lungs (pneumonitis), chest pain, coughing up blood (hemoptysis), difficulty swallowing (esophagitis), and potential damage to nearby organs.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (AI-directed analysis, SBRT)Experimental Treatment7 Interventions
Patients undergo radiation planning with AI-directed analysis for dose recommendations with Deep Profiler + iGray software on study. Patients then undergo SBRT on study. Patients also undergo PET, CT, MRI, and/or x-ray imaging during screening and follow-up.

Answered by AI

What is the fundamental purpose of this clinical experiment?

"Over a duration of two years, the research team will evaluate this study's primary objective of Overall Survival. Secondary metrics include evaluating Respiratory Function via RTOG Pulmonary Function Test Toxicity Scale, Incidence of Adverse Events through National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0., and assessing physician adherence to prescribed doses as recommended by Deep Profiler +iGray software over one to two weeks during SBRT treatment."
