Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Aggressive Fibromatoses
Phase II Pilot Study Of Moderate Dose Radiotherapy For Inoperable Aggressive Fibromatoses

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of radiation therapy in treating patients who have aggressive fibromatoses.

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the efficacy of moderate-dose radiotherapy, in terms of local control, in patients with aggressive fibromatoses.
  • Determine the acute and late side-effects of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive radiotherapy 5 days a week for 5.5 weeks for a total of 56 Gy in 28 fractions.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years.

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

  • Histologically confirmed aggressive fibromatoses arising in any site

    • Primary, recurrent, or progressive disease that is inoperable or requires a major operation resulting in a large functional or cosmetic deficit or mutilation

      • Progressive disease defined as at least 20% increase in tumor size on 2 MRI scans within 1 year after any prior therapy except radiotherapy OR
    • Incompletely resected tumor with gross residual disease not suitable for further surgery

      • Resected within the past 3 months
  • Lesions must be suitable for radiotherapy
