NCT04398095

Brief Summary

After a screening, which consists of biopsy, physical examination, initial diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI-MRI) or body computed tomography (CT) scan, blood tests and case analysis on Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) meeting, a patient with radiation-induced or in-field recurrent sarcoma will receive the hypofractionated radiotherapy with deep hyperthermia (twice a week) within three weeks. The response analysis in CT or DWI-MRI and toxicity assessment will be performed after 6 weeks. In resectable tumors, a patient will be referred to surgery. In the case of unresectability, the patient will followed-up.

Study Arms (2)

Radiotherapy with hyperthermia in resectable sarcomas

EXPERIMENTAL

12x 3 Gy (4 fractions per week) + hyperthermia (6x) + surgery

Radiation: Hypofractionated radiotherapyOther: Hyperthermia

Radiotherapy with hyperthermia in non-resectable sarcomas

EXPERIMENTAL

12x 3 Gy with simultaneous integrated boost 3.5 Gy (4 fractions per week) + hyperthermia (6x)

Other: HyperthermiaRadiation: Hypofractionated radiotherapy with boost

Interventions

Resectable or marginally resectable tumors: preoperative hypofractionated 12x 3 Gy radiotherapy (4 days in a week, three weeks) prescribed on planned target volume (tumor volume + elective margins + setup/error margin) with daily image guidance with cone beam-CT or kV-portal position verification.

Radiotherapy with hyperthermia in resectable sarcomas

Deep hyperthermia (Celsius TCS or BSD-2000) according to local protocol combined with radiotherapy, twice a week.

Radiotherapy with hyperthermia in non-resectable sarcomasRadiotherapy with hyperthermia in resectable sarcomas

Non-resectable/inoperable tumors: definitive hypofractionated 12x 3 Gy radiotherapy prescribed on planned target volume (tumor volume + elective margins + setup/error margin) with simultaneous integrated boost 3.5 Gy per fraction prescribed on boost planned target volume (tumor volume + setup/error margin), 4 days in a week, three weeks. Radiotherapy with daily image guidance with cone beam-CT or kV-portal position verification.
