Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Tumor response to DaRT

    Assessment of the rate of malignant cutaneous, mucosal or superficial soft tissue tumors response using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (Version 1.1)

    9-11 weeks after DaRT seed insertion.

  • Adverse Events

    The incidence, frequency, severity and causality of acute adverse events related to the DaRT treatment

    Time Frame: 9-11 weeks post DaRT insertion.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Assessment of the reduction in tumor volume

    9-11 weeks follow-up visit.

  • DaRT seeds placement.

    Day of insertion procedure.

  • Change in quality of life

    Screening, DaRT removal and day 70 visits.

  • Change in quality of life

    Screening, DaRT removal and day 70 visits.

Study Arms (1)

DaRT Seeds

EXPERIMENTAL

Intratumoral Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (DaRT) Seeds

Device: Radiation: Diffusing Alpha Radiation Emitters Therapy (DaRT)

Interventions

An intratumoral insertion of a seed(s), loaded with Radium-224, securely fixed in the seeds. The seeds release by recoil into the tumor short-lived alpha-emitting atoms.

DaRT Seeds

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Subjects with histopathological confirmation of primary or secondary malignant cutaneous neoplastic lesions, or oral cavity mucosal tumors, or superficial soft tissue sarcoma.
  • Subjects with a tumor size ≤ 7 centimeters in the longest diameter.
  • Measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1.
  • Subjects over 18 years old.
  • Subjects' ECOG Performance Status Scale is \< 2.
  • Subjects' life expectancy is more than 6 months.
  • Platelet count ≥100,000/mm3.
  • International normalized ratio of prothrombin time ≤1.8.
  • Creatinine ≤1.9 mg/dL.
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) will have evidence of negative pregnancy test.
  • Subjects are willing to sign an informed consent form.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subject has a tumor of Keratoacanthoma histology.
  • Patients with significant comorbidities that the treating physician deems may conflict with the endpoints of the study (e.g., poorly controlled autoimmune diseases, vasculitis, etc.)
  • Patients undergoing systemic immunosuppressive therapy excepting intermittent, brief use of systemic corticosteroids
  • Volunteers participating in another interventional study in the past 30 days which might conflict with the endpoints of this study or the evaluation of response or toxicity of DaRT.
  • High probability of protocol non-compliance (in opinion of investigator).
  • Subjects not willing to sign an informed consent.
  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
