ABSTRACT
Background: Radiotherapy is an effective treatment for indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL); however, the optimal radiotherapy dose remains to be determined. We hypothesize that a suitable dose may exist between 4 and 24 Gy. Methods: This prospective multicenter phase II trial intends to recruit 73 sites of iNHL patients, who will receive involved-site radiotherapy of 12 Gy in four fractions. The primary objective is the 6-month clinical complete response rate. Tumor tissue, blood and conjunctival specimens will be collected to identify potential predictive biomarkers. Discussion: The CLCG-iNHL-01 trial will evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of 12 Gy in patients with iNHL and provide information on a novel hypofractionation regimen of low-dose radiotherapy. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT05543070 (ClinicalTrials.gov).

Capable of directly capturing various physiological signals from human skin, skin-interfaced bioelectronics has emerged as a promising option for human health monitoring. However, the accuracy and reliability of the measured signals can be greatly affected by body movements or skin deformations (e.g., stretching, wrinkling, and compression). This study presents an ultraconformal, motion artifact-free, and multifunctional skin bioelectronic sensing platform fabricated by a simple and user-friendly laser patterning approach for sensing high-quality human physiological data. The highly conductive membrane based on the room-temperature coalesced Ag/Cu@Cu core-shell nanoparticles in a mixed solution of polymers can partially dissolve and locally deform in the presence of water to form conformal contact with the skin. The resulting sensors to capture improved electrophysiological signals upon various skin deformations and other biophysical signals provide an effective means to monitor health conditions and create human-machine interfaces. The highly conductive and stretchable membrane can also be used as interconnects to connect commercial off-the-shelf chips to allow extended functionalities, and the proof-of-concept demonstration is highlighted in an integrated pulse oximeter. The easy-to-remove feature of the resulting device with water further allows the device to be applied on delicate skin, such as the infant and elderly.
