Lattice radiation therapy for large tumors
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a special type of radiation called Lattice Radiotherapy (LRT) for adults with large tumors (at least 4.5 cm) that have spread or started outside the brain. It aims to shrink tumors and relieve symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a confirmed cancer diagnosis (any type except certain rare ones).
- The tumor is outside the brain and at least 4.5 cm on a scan.
- You are planning to get radiation for symptom relief (palliative).
- Your doctor thinks you are expected to live at least 3 more months.
- You are well enough to be up and about (ECOG score 0, 1, 2, or 3).
- You are not receiving certain other cancer treatments during the same period.

This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy called lattice radiotherapy (LRT) for people with large tumors that cannot be cured with standard treatments. It aims to deliver high doses of radiation to the center of the tumor while sparing surrounding healthy tissue, potentially controlling the tumor and improving quality of life.
This trial tests a higher dose of radiation to shrink large tumors and relieve pain in people with advanced cancer. It aims to improve quality of life by targeting up to three large tumors with a single treatment.
This study tests a new way to deliver radiation called lattice therapy for people with large solid tumors that are causing symptoms. It aims to give a stronger radiation dose to help shrink the tumor and relieve discomfort.
This trial tests a special type of focused radiation therapy (called SBRT-Lattice) for large tumors in patients who can't benefit from surgery, chemotherapy, or standard radiation. The radiation uses a lattice pattern designed to treat the tumor while protecting healthy tissue nearby.
This phase 3 trial tests a newer radiation technique called Lattice Radiation Therapy against standard radiation for people with large solid tumors (over 5 cm) that cannot be removed by surgery or treated with standard radiation. The goal is to see if the newer approach provides better pain relief and tumor control.
This trial tests whether adding a special radiotherapy technique called lattice radiotherapy to your usual cancer treatment can help control NSCLC that has started to grow in a few new spots. If you have up to 5 growing tumors and at least one measures 4.5 cm or larger, this study might be an option.
