Public criteria

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria
  • Histologically confirmed primary lung cancer, lung metastasis from another primary, or recurrent tumors in the setting of prior RFA or cryotherapy
  • Tumors \< 2 cm from trachea or zone of proximal bronchial tree (central tumors)
  • Each tumor \< 5 cm in size prior to treatment
  • Medically inoperable patients as determined at the multidisciplinary thoracic tumor board, or medically operable patients who refuse surgery
  • Criterion for medical inoperability include:
  • Overall clinical assessment at the UCLA thoracic tumor board
  • Reduced Pulmonary Function (FEV1, DLCO, etc) based on one major or two minor criterion as described below:
  • Modified ACOSOG Criteria for medical inoperability:
  • Major Criteria: FEV1% \< 50% or \< 1L and DLCO \< 50%
  • Minor Criteria: Age \> 75, FEV1 51-60% predicted, or FEV1 1-1.2L, DLCO 51%-60% predicted, pulmonary hypertension, poor left ventricular function (EF \< 40% or less), resting or exercise arterial pO2 \< 55 mmHg, and pCO2 \> 45 mmHg
  • Age \> 18 years old
  • KPS \> 70
  • If a woman is of childbearing potential, a negative urine or serum pregnancy test must be documented.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent
Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria
  • Prior thoracic radiation near the targets of interest
  • More than 2 central tumor targets per patient
  • Active infections requiring systemic antibiotics

Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
