Outcomes of extracranial stereotactic body radiation therapy for induced oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer on novel systemic therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is often delivered in patients with oligometastatic disease (OMD). However, the specific subset of patients with polymetastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) on novel systemic therapies who develop induced oligopersistant disease (OpersisD) or oligoprogressive disease (OprogD), as defined by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) OMD classification, has not been well described. This study explores the outcomes of patients treated with this strategy.

Methods

Patients with stage IV NSCLC being treated with osimertinib or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) who received extracranial SBRT for OpersisD or OprogD were identified in our retrospective analysis. Outcomes reported include progression-free survival (PFS), time to change of systemic treatment (TTCST), overall survival (OS), local control (LC) and treatment-related toxicity.

Results

Forty-nine patients received SBRT for OpersisD (34.7%) or OprogD (65.3%) at a median of 5.8 and 15.3 months after start of systemic therapy, respectively. 55.1% received concurrent osimertinib and 44.9% received ICI. Seventy-seven extracranial lesions were treated with various fractionation schemas. At a median of 18.8 months follow-up from first SBRT, LC was achieved in 92.2% of total lesions treated (71). The 1-year OS was 91.7% for OpersisD and 83.3% for OprogD. OpersisD compared to OprogD had a longer median PFS (18.3 vs. 6.1 months) and longer median TTCST (23.6 vs. 13.5 months), median OS was not reached for either cohort. On multivariate analysis, patients treated with osimertinib had shorter PFS (HR: 2.20; 95% CI: 1.01-4.82; P=0.048) and shorter TTCST (HR: 2.83; 95% CI: 1.09-7.33; P=0.032). One patient (2%) experienced grade 3 pneumonitis after SBRT, and no grade 4-5 toxicities were reported with SBRT treatment.

Conclusions

This study indicates that SBRT for OpersisD or OprogD in Stage IV NSCLC patients on osimertinib or ICIs is safe, very well tolerated, and may prolong the time before needing a shift in systemic therapy. Further prospective research is needed to validate and expand upon these findings.

Project description:BackgroundEvidence-based guidelines for the management of systemic therapy-naïve oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are lacking.ObjectiveTo evaluate the potential of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SAbR) to provide longitudinal disease control while preserving quality of life (QOL) in patients with systemic therapy-naïve oligometastatic RCC.Design, setting, and participantsRCC patients with three or fewer extracranial metastases were eligible. SAbR was administered longitudinally to all upfront and, as applicable, subsequent metastases.Outcome measurements and statistical analysisThis prospective phase II single-arm trial was powered to achieve a primary objective of freedom from systemic therapy for >1 yr in >60% of patients (using the Clopper and Pearson methodology). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from first SAbR to progression not amenable to SAbR (local failure at SAbR-treated sites, new metastases not amenable to SAbR, more than three new metastases, or brain metastases); patient-reported QOL metrics; local control (LC) rates; toxicity; cancer-specific survival (CSS); and overall survival (OS).Results and limitationsTwenty-three patients received SAbR to 33 initial and 57 total sites. The median follow-up was 21.7 mo (interquartile range 16.3-30.3). Exceeding the prespecified 60% benchmark, freedom from systemic therapy at 1 yr was 91.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 69.5, 97.8). One-year PFS was 82.6% (95% CI: 60.1, 93.1). QOL was largely unaffected. LC was 100%. There were no grade 3/4 toxicities, but there was one death due to immune-related colitis 3 mo after SAbR while on subsequent checkpoint inhibitor therapy, where a SAbR contribution could not be excluded. One-year OS was 95.7% (95% CI: 72.9, 99.4); one-year CSS was 100%.ConclusionsSAbR for oligometastatic RCC was associated with meaningful longitudinal disease control while preserving QOL. These data support further evaluation of SAbR for systemic therapy-naïve oligometastatic RCC.Patient summarySequential stereotactic radiation therapy can safely and effectively control metastatic kidney cancer with limited spread for over a year without compromising patients' quality of life.

Project description:Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) also referred to as stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), is a technique which has emerged over the past two decades due to improvements in radiation technology. Unlike conventional external beam radiotherapy (cEBRT) which traditionally delivers radiation in small doses [approximately 2 Gray (Gy) per fraction] over several weeks, SBRT, typically delivered in one to eight fractions, is a technique whereby potentially ablative doses of radiotherapy (usually 7.5-20 Gy per fraction) can be delivered with steeper dose gradients and sub millimetre precision, minimising risk to surrounding normal tissues. The potential benefits of excellent tumor control with low toxicity has led to the increasing use of SBRT in a number of clinical situations. Due to compelling evidence, SBRT is now the treatment of choice for medically inoperable patients with peripherally located stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Controversy remains however as to its efficacy and safety for central or ultra-central lung tumors. The evidence base supporting the use of SBRT as a novel treatment for spinal metastases and oligometastases is rapidly expanding but challenges remain in these difficult patient populations. In an era where targeted therapy and improved systemic treatments for stage IV cancer have resulted in increased disease-free survival, and our knowledge of the oligometastatic state is ever expanding, using SBRT to treat metastatic disease and gain durable local control is increasingly desirable. Several randomized trials are currently underway and are sure to provide valuable information on the benefit and utility of SBRT across many tumor sites including early-stage NSCLC, spinal metastases and oligometastatic disease. Recognizing the evolving role of SBRT in clinical practice, this paper provides a critical review of recent developments in each of these areas particularly highlighting the challenges facing clinicians and discusses potential areas for future research.

Project description:PurposeStereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SAbR) is a promising alternative for selected patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with oligometastasis. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of SAbR for longitudinal control in patients with persistently oligometastatic RCC. We report the impact of SAbR on tumor control rates as well as its tolerability in systemic therapy-naïve patients with oligometastatic disease (without brain metastases) and assess the effect of SAbR on subsequent first line systemic therapy by comparison to historical controls.Methods and materialsWe reviewed patients with metastatic RCC treated with front-line SAbR with a curative intent from 2007 to 2017 at UT Southwestern Kidney Cancer Program. We analyzed local control rates (LCR), toxicity, freedom from systemic therapy (FST), type and duration of first-line systemic therapy, and overall survival (OS). Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses were used.ResultsWe identified 47 patients with oligometastatic RCC treated with SAbR to 88 metastases; 11 patients had more than 1 SAbR course. The local control rate was 91.5% at 2 years with no reported grade ≥3 toxicity. With a median follow-up of 30 months (interquartile range, 13.7-40.9), median FST from first SAbR was 15.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.8-40.1). The most common systemic therapies initiated after SAbR were pazopanib (60.7%) and sunitinib (14.3%). The duration of first line systemic therapy appeared unaffected by SAbR. Improved FST was observed in patients with metachronous disease (hazard ratio, 2.67; P = .02), solitary metastasis (HR, 2.26; P = .05), and non-bone metastasis (HR, 2.21; P = .04). One-year and 2-year OS after SAbR were 93.1% (95% CI, 80.1-97.7) and 84.8% (95% CI, 69.1-92.9), respectively. Median OS was not reached.ConclusionsSAbR is an effective and safe treatment for selected patients with oligometastatic RCC, can provide longitudinal disease control without systemic therapy for over a year, and does not appear to adversely affect the effectiveness of first-line systemic therapy once initiated. Prospective validation of these findings is being sought through a phase 2 trial.
