NCT02714621

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this pilot study is to determine whether or not it is feasible to use MRgHIFU to treat symptomatic (pain, bleeding) recurrent pelvic malignancy with an acceptable safety profile when conventional treatment options are not available. The ultimate goal is to be able not only to offer a viable method of symptom palliation in patients with recurrent pelvic tumours and improve their quality of life; but also to control tumour growth and extend life in a group of relatively young patients with isolated local recurrence.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes in pain, measured using a patient diary

    7 days post-treatment, follow up at 90 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

    7 days post-treatment, follow up at 90 days

Study Arms (2)

Feasibility of MR-HIFU for painful gynaecological metastases

NO INTERVENTION

Investigating whether it would be possible to use the MRgHIFU system to treat recurrent gynaecological cancers.

Treatment using MR-HIFU of painful gynaecological metastases

EXPERIMENTAL

Testing whether MRgHIFU could be an effective treatment for the symptoms of recurrent gynaecological cancers (pain and bleeding)

Device: Magnetic Resonance Image-guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MR-HIFU)

Interventions

Treatment using MR-HIFU of painful gynaecological metastases

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with recurrent pelvic gynaecological malignancy (cervix and endometrial cancer).
  • Recurrent lesion is painful (NRS\>4) and not suitable for alternative treatments
  • Intended target volume accessible for MRgHIFU treatment
  • Intended target volume visible on noncontrast MR imaging
  • Distance between target and skin ≥1cm

You may not qualify if:

  • MRI contraindicated (e.g. by incompatible metal implants or claustrophobia)
  • Pregnancy
  • Sedation contraindicated
  • MRI contrast agent contraindicated
  • Scar, internal or external fixation device along the beam path or at the target
