Contribution From PET-DOPA in Glioblastoma Re-irradiation - A Randomized Phase II Study

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
ReciDOPA is a phase II, single-stage randomized, multicenter, prospective trial assessing the efficacy of an irradiation protocol based on Intensity-modulated radiation therapy with simultaneous-integrated boost guided by FDOPA-PET in patient with recurrent glioblastoma.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common cerebral tumor in adults. Despite well-conducted treatments including surgery, chemo-radiotherapy and chemotherapy according to the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) and National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group (NCIC) protocol, recurrences remain unavoidable within approximately 6 months and the overall survival rate of patients at 5 years is inferior to 10%. In case of recurrence, a second surgery, radiotherapy under stereotaxic conditions, bevacizumab or other innovative techniques have been proposed. However, they are not yet considered as reference treatments, due to the absence of therapeutic trials definitively proving their efficacy. Evaluation of GBM progression is based on MRI, corticosteroid intake and clinical status.However, positron emission tomography (PET) is an extremely relevant examination for differentiating between true progression and pseudo-progression. Indeed, an increase in the transfer of amino acids in 18 F-dihydroxyphenylalanine (FDOPA)-PET strongly suggests a recurrence. A local treatment can then be proposed by favoring surgery or, as an option, radiotherapy under stereotactic conditions. However, this treatment, even if it is well tolerated, has an efficacy which could be improved. Often proposed option to improve efficacy of this radiation technic consists in increasing the dose of irradiation. This dose increase is often limited by the tolerance of nearby healthy tissue. It could however be possible with coupled techniques of intensity modulation and stereotaxy within the framework of an integrated boost (Simultaneous Integrated Boost - SIB). At each radiation session, the dose delivered to the tumor volume would be increased in the metabolic volume (BTV) detected by FDOPA-PET. The objective of this study is to evaluate, in patients with recurrent glioblastoma, the efficacy of a dose increase using an SIB in a volume delineated with FDOPA-PET.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Efficacy of simultaneous-integrated boost with IMRT guided by FDOPA PET on Recurrence free survival in patient with recurrent glioblastoma | Recurrence free survival: interval between the date of inclusion in the trial until the date of recurrence of irradiated site (or one of the irradiated sites, in case of multiple irradiation) | up to 24 months | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Percentage of recurrence of irradiated sites | Number of sites with recurrence over the number of irradiated sites | up to 24 months | 
| Characterization of recurrence sites: classified either as distant, marginal or in-field | Recurrence will be described according to their localisation by comparing images at recurrence with the images used for dosimetry. A recurrence will be defined as  distant is it appears outside of 80% isodose, as marginal if it cuts 80% isodose and as in-field if it is completely located in 80% isodose. The 80% isodose is the reference isodose used for radiation therapy prescription. | up to 24 months | 
| Percentage of Recurrence free survival at 6 months | Interval between the date of inclusion in the trial until the date of recurrence of irradiated site (first recurrence, in case of multiple irradiation). Patients that are alive without recurrence at the end of the tiral will be censored | At 6 months | 
| Percentage of Recurrence free survival at 12 months | Interval between the date of inclusion in the trial until the date of recurrence of irradiated site (first recurrence, in case of multiple irradiation). Patients that are alive without recurrence at the end of the tiral will be censored | at 12 months | 
| Overall survival | Interval between the date of inclusion in the trial until the date of death whatever the cause. Patients that are alive without recurrence at the end of the tiral will be censored | From date of inclusion until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 72 months | 
| Tolerance of re-irradiation | Recording of toxicities (according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5 criteria) at each follow-up visit | up to 24 months |
