Could less radiation be better for some cancers?

NCT ID NCT05010031

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study is testing whether a lower dose of radiation can effectively treat metastatic tumors that have a specific genetic change called an ATM mutation. The goal is to find the smallest effective dose to reduce side effects. About 45 adults with advanced cancer and an ATM mutation will receive palliative radiotherapy and be followed for up to 6 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
palliative radiotherapy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that lower radiation doses are effective for ATM-mutated tumors, reducing side effects while maintaining tumor control.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 45 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The reduced dose might not control tumors as well as standard doses.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically confirmed malignancy with at least one metastatic lesion referred for palliative radiotherapy * Pathogenic mutation in ATM (somatic and germline allowed) * ECOG performance status 0-2 * Age ≥ 18 years. * Able to provide informed consent. * Patients at reproductive potential must agree to practice an effective contraceptive method during radiation treatments. * Expected life expectancy of at least 6 months Exclusion Criteria: * Previous radiotherapy to the intended treatment site that precludes developing a treatment plan that respects normal tissue tolerances. * Serious medical co-morbidities precluding radiotherapy. * Pregnant or breast-feeding women. * Lesions excluded from de-escalation include regions in which the risk of local disease progression is unacceptably high, including CNS disease and cord compression, and areas in which re-irradiation would not be feasible, including spinal cord overlap.
