This pre-operative window of opportunity study will use functional imaging and serological investigations to assess whether atovaquone significantly reduces tumour hypoxia in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

STUDY DESIGN

Open label window of opportunity study

STUDY POPULATION

Patients with suspected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE

  • To investigate whether atovaquone reduces tumour hypoxia.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

  • To further investigate whether atovaquone reduces tumour hypoxia.Late SBRT toxicity (>1 month to 6 months post-surgery)
  • To determine whether atovaquone results in a change in tumour perfusion.
  • To determine whether serological markers of hypoxia may replace hyp-PET-CT imaging in future studies of hypoxia modification.
  • To determine reproducibility of hyp-PET-CT, perfusion CT, serological tests, DWI-MRI and DCE-MRI

KEY DATES

Open to recruitment: 05 May 2016
