Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain control [EFFICACY and PAIN]

    Pain control measured with Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) score, a 11-point scale for patient self-reporting of pain. NRS score presents a total range between 0 (no pain) and 10 maximum pain. NRS subscale are the sequent: * 0: no pain \[better outcome \] * 1-3: mild pain * 4-6: moderate pain * 7-10 severe pain \[worse outcome\]

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Pain control duration [EFFICACY and PAIN]

    12 months after end of radiotherapy

  • Local control [EFFICACY]

    At 3, 6 and 12 months from the end of radiotherapy

  • Symptom Progression Free Survival (SPFS) [EFFICACY and PAIN]

    12 months after end of radiotherapy

  • Progression-free survival - PFS [EFFICACY]

    12 months

  • Overall survival [EFFICACY]

    12 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Masking Details
For each patient the following variables for balancing the study arms will be considered: Gender, age, performance status, histology, site and primary tumor and presence of visceral metastases; Randomization will be performed at the Gemelli ART of the Gemelli Polyclinic Foundation and will be done by e-mail. Patients will be randomized after verification of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Randomization will be performed according to a random list generated by the computer.

Intervention Model
PARALLEL
Model Details: The study is a randomized, controlled superiority trial. The study will appear as an interventionist without medicinal, multicentric, spontaneous. Randomization will take place in a 1: 1 ratio. The study involves the enrollment of 330 patients divided into two groups of 165 patients for each of the two study arms (arm A (gold standard): 4 Gy x 5 fractions (fr); arm B: 5 Gy x 3 fr (Whole Vertebra) + SIB 10 Gy x 3 fr on the Gross Tumor Volume - GTV). The expected difference between the two treatments in terms of three-month pain control rates is 15% more in the experimental arm compared to the standard arm. The calculation of the sample size took into account a 95% CI with a coefficient α of 0.05 and a drop-out rate of 10%.
