CAIX PET/ CT Guided Radiation Therapy in CcRCC.

This is a prospective, single-arm study in adults with recurrent or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Participants will receive standard systemic therapy (targeted therapy plus anti-PD-1 immunotherapy) and undergo dual PET/CT imaging (FDG PET/CT and a CAIX-targeted PET/CT) to map disease sites. When feasible, PET/CT-visible lesions will be treated with image-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR). Patients will be followed to evaluate progression-free survival, local control of treated lesions, and treatment-related adverse events (planned enrollment: ~70).

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Adults (≥18 years) Histologically confirmed clear cell renal cell carcinoma Recurrent or metastatic disease Planned or ongoing first-line systemic therapy (targeted therapy plus anti-PD-1 immunotherapy) Dual PET/CT imaging available (FDG PET/CT and CAIX-targeted PET/CT) and eligible for radiotherapy planning Multidisciplinary assessment confirms radiotherapy is feasible to treat ≥75% of detectable lesions Able to provide written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

Unable to receive stereotactic radiotherapy as planned Uncontrolled serious comorbidities or active infection Pregnant or breastfeeding Unable or unwilling to comply with study procedures and follow-up

Treatment and study plan

PETCT-guided radiation therapy

Radiation

PETCT-guided radiation therapy: All patients will undergo both FDG PET/CT and CAIX PET/CT. Radiotherapy will be planned and delivered based on the imaging findings, with the goal of achieving the most comprehensive feasible (all-site) coverage whenever appropriate.

Primary outcomes

  1. PFS

    Time frame: 2 year

    time from the start of treatment to progression

Secondary outcomes

  1. local control rate

    Time frame: 2 year

    local control rate of all irradiated lesions

  2. Duration of current-line systemic therap

    Time frame: From first radiotherapy to change of systemic therapy due to disease progression (up to 3 years).

    Time (months) from the start date of the first radiotherapy course to the date when the current-line systemic therapy regimen must be changed due to disease progression. Oligoprogression managed with radiotherapy without changing systemic therapy will not be counted as an event.
