Detailed Description
This is a prospective , interventional, open label, single arm, single center study.
The study is designed to evaluate the Feasibility and Safety of DaRT seeds for the treatment of Recurrent Lung Cancer. The study will be comprised of a screening period, DaRT insertion visit, acute follow-up phase of 4- 8 weeks and a long-term follow up phase of 3 months. The total duration of the study will be 3 months from the DaRT insertion procedure.
A total of 10 subjects will be enrolled to the study .
Eligible patients who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria (as assessed during the screening period) will be invited to the site for the procedure of DaRT seeds insertion. The patients will be monitored for a period of 3 months post insertion
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: DaRT Seeds Intratumoral Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (DaRT) Seed |
Device: Radiation: Diffusing Alpha Radiation Emitters Therapy (DaRT)
An intratumoral insertion of radioactive sources [Ra-224 containing stainless-steel 316LVM tubes- (Alpha DaRT seeds)]. The seeds release by recoil into the tumor short-lived alpha-emitting atoms

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Feasibility - DaRT seed placement [From Day 0-Day 90]
Feasibility will be determined according to the rate of successful placement of DaRT seeds via imaging
- Safety- Adverse events [From Day 0-Day 90]
Safety will be determined according to the overall incidence of device related SAE's graded according to CTCAE v5.0 criteria
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Efficacy - Alpha DaRT seeds [1 month and 3 months]
Local control evaluation according to RECIST v1.1
- Efficacy - Alpha DaRT seeds [Day 0-Day 90]
Tumor Coverage

-
Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illnesses including, but not limited to an active infection requiring systemic therapy or a known psychiatric or substance abuse disorder(s) that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial or interfere with the study endpoints.
-
Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or requires active treatment. Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has undergone potentially curative therapy or in situ cervical cancer.
-
Patient requires treatment not specified in this protocol which may conflict with the endpoints of this study including evaluation of response or toxicity of DaRT.
-
Patients must agree to use adequate contraception (vasectomy or barrier method of birth control) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation and for 3 months after discontinuing therapy.
