This trial is for adults with retroperitoneal sarcoma, a soft tissue tumor at the back of the abdomen, who are planning surgery.
The idea: give radiation before surgery, rather than after, when it can damage normal tissue. Patients get image guided proton beam therapy or IMRT, daily for about six weeks. Protons can be controlled to stop inside the body, which may allow better control of where the dose goes.
The study looks for the highest radiation dose that can be given safely.
This phase 1 and 2 study plans 80 patients. At Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Thomas DeLaney leads it.
