Spatially Fractionated Radiation Treatment for Gynaecological Cancers
Sponsor: Tata Memorial Hospital
Summary
This is a prospective study to evaluate in-field disease control, survival and late toxicity in patients with cervical cancer or pelvic recurrence treated with spatially fractionated RT. The study will include patients with primary cervical cancer or pelvic recurrence not suitable for brachytherapy in view of anticipated or actual suboptimal target coverage due to aberrant anatomy or large residual disease at the time of brachytherapy.

Interventions
Spatially fractionated radiation therapy
Spatially fractionated" radiation therapy (SFRT) enables delivery of high-dose radiation to discrete sub-volumes inside a tumour target while restricting the remainder of the target to a safer lower dose. This technique results in generation of intentionally heterogeneous dose distribution with spatial areas of "hot" and "cold" spots within the tumour, thereby sparing nearby organs at risk.
