Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This pilot clinical trial studies the changes in dynamic perfusion computed tomography images before, during, and after stereotactic body radiation therapy in patients with stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. Diagnostic imaging procedures, such as dynamic perfusion computed tomography, measure blood flow through tumors. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is a specialized radiation therapy that sends x-rays directly to the tumor using smaller doses over several days and may cause less damage to normal tissue. Giving dynamic perfusion computed tomography images before, during, and after stereotactic body radiation therapy may help better understand how radiation therapy works to stop tumor growth in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

Arms and outcomes
Arms (1)
- label
- Diagnostic (DPCT)
- description
- Patients undergo DPCT at baseline, during SBRT (after 2 of 3 fractions or 3 of 5 fractions), and then at 1 and 3 months post stereotactic body radiation therapy.
- interventionNames
- Device: Computed Tomography Perfusion Imaging
- Other: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis
- Radiation: Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
Primary outcomes (4)
- measure
- Change in blood flow (mL/min/100 g) as measured on perfusion CT
- timeFrame
- Baseline to up to 3 months post SBRT
- description
- Descriptive statistics including mean and standard deviation or median and range, will be used to summarize the distribution of perfusion parameters (blood flow, blood volume, mean transit time and permeability), as well as their changes from baseline to the time-points after SBRT. Precision of the estimated means will be provided. Line graphs will be used to display the changes in the parameters over time. If the distribution of the data permits, mixed-effect linear regression analysis will be performed to examine the patterns of the pre- vs. post-SBRT change in the endpoints.
