Lung metastases treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy: the RSSearch® patient Registry's experience.

ABSTRACT: To report overall survival and local control for patients identified in the RSSearch® Patient Registry with metastatic cancer to the lung treated with SBRT.Seven hundred two patients were identified with lung metastases in the RSSearch® Registry. Of these patients, 577 patients had SBRT dose and fractionation information available. Patients were excluded if they received prior surgery, radiation, or radiofrequency ablation to the SBRT treated area. Between April 2004-July 2015, 447 patients treated with SBRT at 30 academic and community-based centers were evaluable for overall survival (OS). Three hundred four patients with 327 lesions were evaluable for local control (LC). All doses were converted to Monte Carlo equivalents and subsequent BED Gy10 for dose response analysis.Median age was 69 years (range, 18-93 years). Median Karnofsky performance status (KPS) was 90 (range 25/75% 80-100). 49.2% of patients had prior systemic therapy. Median metastasis volume was 10.58 cc (range 25/75% 3.7-25.54 cc). Site of primary tumor included colorectal (25.7%), lung (16.6%), head and neck (11.4%), breast (9.2%), kidney (8.1%), skin (6.5%) and other (22.1%). Median dose was 50 Gy (range 25/75% 48-54) delivered in 3 fractions (range 25/75% 3-5) with a median BED of 100Gy10 (range 25/75% 81-136). Median OS for the entire group was 26 months, with actuarial 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS of 74.1%, 33.3, and 21.8%, respectively. Patients with head and neck and breast cancers had longer median OS of 37 and 32 months respectively, compared to colorectal (30 months) and lung (26 months) which corresponded to 3-year actuarial OS of 51.8 and 47.9% for head and neck and breast respectively, compared to 35.8% for colorectal and 31.2% for lung. The median LC for all patients was 53 months, with actuarial 1-, 3-, and 5-year LC rates of 80.4, 58.9, and 46.3%, respectively. There was no difference in LC by primary histologic type (p?=?0.49). Improved LC was observed for lung metastases that received SBRT doses of BED ?100Gy10 with 3-year LC rate of 77.1% compared to 45% for lung metastases treated with BED??11 cc. (p?=?0.005) Two-year LC rates for tumor volumes??27 cc were 72.9, 64.2 and 45.6%, respectively. This correlated with improved OS with 2-year OS rates of 62.4, 60.9 and 46.2% for tumor volumes??27 cc, respectively (p?=?0.0023). In a subset of patients who received BED ?100Gy10, 2-year LC rates for tumor volumes??27 cc were 82.8, 58.9 and 68.6%, respectively (p?=?0.0244), and 2-year OS rates were 66.0, 58.8 and 28.5%, respectively (p?=?0.0081).Excellent OS and LC is achievable with SBRT utilizing BED ?100Gy10 for lung metastases according to the RSSearch® Registry data. Patients with small lung metastases (volumes?

Project description:BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate treatment patterns and outcomes of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for centrally located primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or lung metastases from the RSSearch(®) Patient Registry, an international, multi-center patient registry dedicated to radiosurgery and SBRT.MethodsEligible patients included those with centrally located lung tumors clinically staged T1-T2 N0, M0, biopsy-confirmed NSCLC or lung metastases treated with SBRT between November 2004 and January 2014. Descriptive analysis was used to report patient demographics and treatment patterns. Overall survival (OS) and local control (LC) were determined using Kaplan-Meier method. Toxicity was reported using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0.ResultsIn total, 111 patients with 114 centrally located lung tumors (48 T1-T2,N0,M0 NSCLC and 66 lung metastases) were treated with SBRT at 19 academic and community-based radiotherapy centers in the US and Germany. Median follow-up was 17 months (range, 1-72). Median age was 74 years for primary NSCLC patients and 65 years for lung metastases patients (p < 0.001). SBRT dose varied from 16 - 60 Gy (median 48 Gy) delivered in 1-5 fractions (median 4 fractions). Median dose to centrally located primary NSCLC was 48 Gy compared to 37.5 Gy for lung metastases (p = 0.0001) and median BED10 was 105.6 Gy for primary NSCLC and 93.6 Gy for lung metastases (p = 0.0005). Two-year OS for T1N0M0 and T2N0M0 NSCLC was 79 and 32.1 %, respectively (p = 0.009) and 2-year OS for lung metastases was 49.6 %. Two-year LC was 76.4 and 69.8 % for primary NSCLC and lung metastases, respectively. Toxicity was low with no Grade 3 or higher acute or late toxicities.ConclusionOverall, patients with centrally located primary NSCLC were older and received higher doses of SBRT than those with lung metastases. Despite these differences, LC and OS was favorable for patients with central lung tumors treated with SBRT. Reported toxicity was low, although low grade toxicities were observed in patients where dose tolerances approached or exceeded published guidelines. Prospective studies are needed to further define the optimal SBRT dose for this cohort of patients.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01885299.

Project description:BackgroundRadiation pneumonitis is a critical pulmonary toxicity after irradiation of the lung. Macrolides including clarithromycin (CAM) are antibiotics. They also have immunomodulatory properties and are used to treat respiratory inflammatory diseases. Radiation pneumonitis has similar pathology to them. Adverse reactions to macrolides are few and self-limited. We thus administered CAM to patients with high-risk factors for radiation pneumonitis, and retrospectively investigated whether CAM mitigated radiation pneumonitis following stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).MethodsAmong consecutive patients treated with SBRT, we retrospectively examined lung cancer patients treated with a total dose of 40-60 Gy in 5-10 fractions and followed ≥6 months. Since January 2014, CAM has been administered in patients with pretreatment predictable radiation pneumonitis high-risk factors, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs), and elevated Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) and/or surfactant protein D (SP-D), and in patients developing early onset radiation pneumonitis.ResultsFive hundred and eighty eligible patients were identified and divided into 445 patients during the non-CAM-administration era (non-CAM-era) (before December 2013) and 136 patients during the CAM-administration era (CAM-era) (after January 2014). Median follow-up durations were 38.0 and 13.9 months, respectively. The rates of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 2 and ≥ grade 3 were significantly lower in CAM-era (grade ≥2, 16% vs. 9.6%, P=0.047; grade ≥3, 3.8% vs. 0.73%, P=0.037). For patients with the pretreatment predictable high-risk factors, the rate of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 3 was significantly lower, and that of grade ≥2 had a lower tendency (grade ≥3, 7.2% vs. 0%, P=0.011; grade ≥2, 21% vs. 9.6%, P=0.061). For patients developing early onset radiation pneumonitis, the rate of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 3 was also significantly lower (23% vs. 0%, P<0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that dose-volumetric factor, the pretreatment predictable high-risk factors and non-CAM-administration era were significantly associated with or trended toward radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 2 and ≥ grade 3.ConclusionsCAM mitigated radiation pneumonitis following SBRT. The efficacy of CAM should be conﬁrmed in prospective studies.

Project description:Purpose/objectiveStereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a valid treatment alternative for non-resectable liver metastases or hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC). Magnetic resonance (MR) guided SBRT has a high potential of further improving treatment quality, allowing for higher, tumoricidal irradiation doses whilst simultaneously sparing organs at risk. However, data on treatment outcome and patient acceptance is still limited.Material/methodsWe performed a subgroup analysis of an ongoing prospective observational study comprising patients with liver metastases or HCC. Patients were treated with ablative MR-guided SBRT at the MRIdian Linac in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Heidelberg University Hospital between January 2019 and February 2020. Local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. An in-house designed patient-reported outcome questionnaire was used to measure patients' experience with the MR-Linac treatment. Toxicity was evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v. 5.0).ResultsTwenty patients (with n = 18 metastases; n = 2 HCC) received MR-guided SBRT for in total 26 malignant liver lesions. Median biologically effective dose (BED at α/β = 10) was 105.0 Gy (range: 67.2-112.5 Gy) and median planning target volume was 57.20 ml (range: 17.4-445.0 ml). Median treatment time was 39.0 min (range: 26.0-67.0 min). At 1-year, LC was 88.1% and OS was 84.0%. Grade I° gastrointestinal toxicity °occurred in 30.0% and grade II° in 5.0% of the patients with no grade III° or higher toxicity. Overall treatment experience was rated positively, with items scoring MR-Linac staff's performance and items concerning the breath hold process being among the top positively rated elements. Worst scored items were treatment duration, positioning and low temperature.ConclusionMR-guided SBRT of liver tumors is a well-tolerated and well-accepted treatment modality. Initial results are promising with excellent local control and only mildest toxicity. However, prospective studies are warranted to truly assess the potential of MR-guided liver SBRT and to identify which patients profit most from this new versatile technology.
