Consolidative Use of Radiotherapy to Block Oligoprogression in Patients With Metastatic Melanoma
About this study
This open-label, prospective, single-arm Phase II trial explores whether adding stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) or hypofractionated radiotherapy to oligoprogressive lesions can help delay disease progression in patients with metastatic melanoma. Participants may have up to ten extracranial oligoprogressive sites, with no upper limit on the total number of metastatic lesions. The study aims to assess whether targeting these progressing sites with focused radiotherapy can extend progression-free survival in this patient population.

- Pregnancy.
- Leptomeningeal disease.
- Serious medical comorbidities precluding radiotherapy, such as ataxia-telangiectasia or scleroderma.
- Prior radiotherapy near the oligoprogressive lesion precluding SBRT or hypofractionated radiotherapy due to exceeding OAR tolerance.
- Any psychological, sociological or geographical issue potentially hampering compliance with the study.
- Any other condition which in the judgment of the investigator would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study.
