About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess safety of pan-metastases directed SBRT combined with ATRA and the lympho-protective efficacy of ATRA upon radiation-induced lymphopenia.

This is a French bicentric, open label, phase I/II clinical study that will comprise two parts. Part I will evaluate the safety of the combination based on a single-arm safety run design, while Part II will be randomized (ratio 1:1) and will study SBRT with or without ATRA.

Patients enrolled will be treated with:

* SBRT to all lesions more than 1cm, on week days (from Monday to Friday), over a maximum of 2 weeks, * With or without (for part II patients randomized in the control arm) ATRA therapy: ATRA 150 mg/m\^2/day for 3 days every 3 weeks for a maximum of 4 cycles (about 3 months), starting on the first day of radiation therapy.

The expected rate of patients who will have lymphopenia of grade 2 or higher in the control arm at 6 weeks post-radiotherapy is 50%.

At a one-sided level of statistical significance of 0.07, the randomization of 52 patients (26 patients in each arm) will provide 85% power to detect a decrease in this rate to 15% in the SBRT+ATRA arm, using Fisher's exact test.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

[1-5] active tumor lesions with a largest diameter comprised between [1-5] cm,

The disease can be either genuinely oligometastatic, oligoprogressive, or an induced oligometastatic disease

All active tumor lesions (progressive and/or hypermetabolic) that match criterion I2a must be eligible to SBRT in terms of location and radiotherapy constraints. 'Active lesion' is defined as either: hypermetabolic on PET-scan, recent increase of >20% of its largest diameter on CT-scan, and/or any new lesion of ≥ 1cm on the most recent CT-scan

SBRT to all active lesions must be feasible over a two-week period,

Disqualifiers

None

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Dose-limiting toxicities (DLT)

Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an adverse event reported during the first three weeks of treatment that is possibly related to study intervention and fulfills any one of the DLT criteria using CTCAE Version 5.0

Time frame
from the first intake to 3 weeks after the treatment initiation
2

Lympho-protective efficacy

Rate of patients with lymphopenia grade 2 or higher at 6 weeks after treatment completion (as absolute lymphocyte count less than 800/mm3 (CTCAE V5.0))

Time frame
At 6 weeks after SBRT completion
