Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Feasibility - DaRT seed placement

    Feasibility will be determined according to the rate of successful placement of DaRT seeds via imaging

    From Day 0-Day 90

  • Safety- Adverse events

    Safety will be determined according to the overall incidence of device related SAE's graded according to CTCAE v5.0 criteria

    From Day 0-Day 90

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Efficacy - Alpha DaRT seeds

    1 month and 3 months

  • Efficacy - Alpha DaRT seeds

    Day 0-Day 90

Study Arms (1)

DaRT Seeds

EXPERIMENTAL

Intratumoral Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (DaRT) Seed

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

Interventions

An intratumoral insertion of radioactive sources \[Ra-224 containing stainless-steel 316LVM tubes- (Alpha DaRT seeds)\]. 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:

  • Histologically and/or cytologically proven recurrent mediastinal tumors
  • Target lesion is technically amenable for at least 50% coverage by the Alpha DaRT seeds as determined by the treating physician
  • Up to two treatable lesions
  • Interstitial radiation indication validated by a multidisciplinary team.
  • Measurable lesion per RECIST (version 1.1) criteria
  • Lesion size ≤ 3 cm in the longest diameter
  • Age ≥18 years old
  • ECOG Performance Status Scale ≤ 3
  • Life expectancy is more than 6 months
  • WBC ≥ 3500/µl, granulocyte ≥ 1500/µl
  • Platelet count ≥60,000/µl
  • Calculated or measured creatinine clearance ≥ 60cc/min. Calculated, or measured creatinine clearance can be≥ 40cc/min given stability of creatinine levels over the past three weeks (at least 1 test per week).
  • AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 X ULN
  • INR \< 1.4 for patients not on Warfarin
  • Subjects are willing and able to sign an informed consent form
  • +1 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Concomitant chemotherapy or immunotherapy
  • Brain metastases Connective tissue disease (scleroderma, lupus)
  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the treatment.
  • Patients undergoing systemic immunosuppressive therapy excepting intermittent, brief use of systemic corticosteroids.
  • Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, e.g. cardiac failure of New York Heart Association classes III-IV, uncontrolled coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, uncontrolled arrhythmia, uncontrolled hypertension, or history of myocardial infarction in the last 12 months.
  • Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illnesses including, but not limited to an active infection requiring systemic therapy or a known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder(s) that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial or interfere with the study endpoints.
  • Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active treatment. Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has undergone potentially curative therapy or in situ cervical cancer.
  • Patient requires treatment not specified in this protocol which may conflict with the endpoints of this study including evaluation of response or toxicity of DaRT.
  • Patients must agree to use adequate contraception (vasectomy or barrier method of birth control) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation and for 3 months after discontinuing therapy.
  • 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).
  • Breastfeeding women or women of childbearing potential unwilling or unable to use an acceptable contraceptive method to prevent pregnancy for 3 months after RT.
