Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Registering a new trial?

To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Study Protocol D - IGRT Intact Prostate - Patients with prostate cancer

- A sample of 30 patients from at least 10 centres that are to be treated for intermediate risk prostate cancer will be enrolled. The sample will be selected to comprise at least 10 patients that will undergo non-IGRT, 10 that will undergo IGRT with fiducials and planar imaging, and 10 that will undergo IGRT with volumetric imaging.

Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion Criteria

None of the following must apply:

* Previous pelvic RT or surgery ie previous rectal or bladder resection
* Concurrent or previous malignancy within 5 years prior to registration (except non-melanomatous skin cancer)
* Androgen deprivation (AD) prior to or following RP as this will affect QoL
* Evidence of nodal or distant metastases
* Clinical or imaging evidence of local recurrence
* Planned adjuvant RT to cover pelvic lymph nodes
* PSA >1.0 ng/ml
* Co-morbidities that would interfere with the completion of treatment
* Concurrent cytotoxic medication
* Hip prosthesis

Study Protocol B: IMRT versus 3DCRT in Anal Cancer Inclusion Criteria

All of the following must apply:

* Informed consent for prospective patients (QoL component)
* Age 18-80 years of age
* Sufficient knowledge of English and adequate cognitive function to be able to complete the QoL and other questionnaires
* Histological confirmation of squamous cell carcinoma or basaloid carcinoma
* T2-4N0, TanyN2 (ipsilateral groin nodes) and TanyN3 (bilateral groin nodes).
* Intention to elective irradiate all pelvic nodal groups up to L5-S1 interspace (including mesorectal, presacral, internal iliac, external iliac, ischiorectal fossa, obturator and inguinal groups).
* Planned for radical chemoradiation.

Exclusion Criteria

None of the following must apply:

* Evidence of metastatic disease
* Prior pelvic RT/ surgery (e.g. vaginal hysterectomy)
* Presence of hip prosthesis
* Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV patients without AIDS eligible.
* Previous pelvic cancers

Study Protocol C: IMRT versus 3DCRT in Nasopharynx Inclusion Criteria

* Histologically confirmed carcinoma of the nasopharynx, types WHO1-111, Stage I-IVB
* Adequate staging of local disease (MRI of primary must be performed, imaging of neck nodes with CT with contrast and/or PET-CT) and exclusion of distant metastatic disease (to be confirmed by either whole body PET-CT or a chest CT, and upper abdominal CT or ultrasound scan for patients with abnormal liver function tests or a bone scan or FDG-PET for patients with bone pain).
* Disease must be considered potentially curable by chemoradiation
* Patients must be medically fit for cisplatin chemotherapy according to local practice (adequate renal, cardiac function, no significant neurological co-morbidities)
