Stereotactic body radiation therapy for adrenal gland metastases: Outcomes and toxicity.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:This study aimed to report on our institutional experience in the use of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for the treatment of adrenal gland metastases. Specifically, we examined the outcomes and toxicity from this treatment modality on adjacent organs at risk. Methods and Materials:Data were retrieved from patients with adrenal metastases who were treated with SBRT between 2008 and 2017. Patients with primary adrenal malignancies were excluded. Toxicities were graded in accordance with the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03. Time-to-event rates were calculated from the date of SBRT delivery. Results:In total, 35 patients with adrenal metastases were identified. Four patients were treated for bilateral disease. The median dose was 40?Gy (range, 20-54?Gy) in 5 fractions (range, 1-6 fractions). The median follow-up time was 37 months (range, 14-451 months) from disease diagnosis and 7 months (range, 1-54 months) from the SBRT start date. With death treated as a competing risk event, the cumulative incidence of local failure was 7.6% at 1 year after SBRT and 19.2% at 3 years. The median overall survival (OS) time was 19 months (95% confidence interval, 8-54 months) and tumor size correlated with survival (P?=?.0006). Patients with metastases <2.9?cm had a median OS of 54 months compared with 11 months for those with adrenal metastases ?2.9?cm (P?=?.01). Incidence of grade 2 toxicity was 17% with no case of grade ?3 toxicity. SBRT did not impact renal function with a mean estimated decline in glomerular filtration rate of only 2.6?±?8?mL/min/1.73?m2 compared with baseline. Combined kidneys V5 and combined renal cortex V17.5 did not correlate with a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (P?=?.7 and P?=?.9, respectively). Conclusions:SBRT offers excellent local control for the treatment of adrenal gland metastases with very low toxicity rates and no significant short-term impact on renal function.

Project description:AimThe adrenal gland is a common site of metastasis with a rate of up to 27% in autopsy series. The incidence of these metastases is increasing due to greater use of Positron Emission Tomography scans and improved overall survival of patients with metastatic cancers. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a non-invasive treatment option for metastasis. The aim of this study is to assess prognostic factors influencing local control, progression-free and overall survival in oligometastatic patients treated with SBRT for an adrenal metastasis.MethodsIn this multicentric retrospective study, we included patients with adrenal metastases treated with SBRT between 2010 and 2021 in eleven french centers. All primary tumors were included.ResultsA total of 110 patients treated for 121 adrenal lesions were included. Non-small-cell lung cancer was the predominant histologic type (55.4 %). Eighty-two percent of patients had at least 2 metastatic sites. The median Planning Target Volume was 70 cm3 with a median prescription dose of 40 Gray (Gy). The mean Biologically Effective Dose (BED) 10 dose was 74.2 Gy. Local control at 1 and 2 years was 85.9 % and 72.5 % respectively. The median overall survival and progression-free survival were 31.6 and 8.5 months respectively. Local control was significantly improved by systemic treatment one month before or after SBRT (p = 0.009) and by a BED10 greater than or equal to 50 Gy (p = 0.003).In multivariate analysis, oligometastatic presentation (p = 0.009) and a metachronous metastatic presentation (p = 0.008) were independent factors for progression-free survival.Tolerance was excellent, no grade 3 and 4 toxicities were described due to SBRT.ConclusionStereotactic radiotherapy of adrenal metastases makes possible a local control of more than 85% at one year and was well tolerated. The factors influencing survival in oligometastatic patients still need to be found in order to better select those who benefit the most from this type of treatment.

Project description:PurposeStereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a potential therapeutic option for locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) but contemporaneous clinical data are limited. We aimed to evaluate the local control, toxicity, and survival outcomes in a cohort of patients previously treated with neoadjuvant pelvic radiation therapy for nonmetastatic locally recurrent rectal cancer, now treated with SBRT.Methods and materialsInoperable rectal cancer patients with ≤3 sites of pelvic recurrence and >6 months since prior pelvic radiation therapy were identified from a prospective registry over 4 years. SBRT dose was 30 Gy in 5 fractions, daily or alternate days, using cumulative organ at risk dose constraints. Primary outcome was local control (LC). Secondary outcomes were progression free survival, overall survival, toxicity, and patient reported quality of life scores using the EQ visual analog scale (EQ-VAS) tool.ResultsThirty patients (35 targets) were included. Median gross tumor volume size was 14.3 cm3. In addition, 27 of 30 (90%) previously received 45 to 50.4 Gy in 25 of 28 fractions, with 10% receiving an alternative prescription. All patients received the planned reirradiation SBRT dose. The median follow-up was 24.5 months (interquartile range, 17.8-28.8). The 1-year LC was 84.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 70.6-99) and a 2-year LC was 69% (95% CI, 51.8-91.9). The median progression free survival was 12.1 months (95% CI, 8.6-17.66), and median overall survival was 28.3 months (95% CI, 17.88-39.5 months). No patient experienced >G2 acute toxicity and only 1 patient experienced late G3 toxicity. Patient-reported QoL outcomes were improved at 3 months after SBRT (Δ EQ-VAS, +10 points, Wilcoxon signed-rank, P = .009).ConclusionsOur study demonstrates that, for small volume pelvic disease relapses from rectal cancer, reirradiation with 30 Gy in 5 fractions is well tolerated and achieves an excellent balance between high local control rates with limited toxicity.

Project description:PurposeTo perform a systematic review and pooled meta-analysis of adrenal metastasis stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) outcomes, treatment characteristics, and toxicity to define the efficacy and propose guidelines for intervention.Methods and materialsWe performed a comprehensive literature search of the Embase and PubMed databases of studies reporting outcome or toxicity data for photon-based SBRT of adrenal metastases in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We then conducted a meta-analysis to estimate pooled overall response, local control (LC), and overall survival and analyzed these outcomes in the context of dosimetric parameters and toxicity using metaregression.ResultsThirty-nine studies published between 2009 and 2019 reporting outcomes on 1006 patients were included. The median follow-up was 12 months, and the median biological equivalent dose (BED10, alpha/beta = 10) was 67 Gy. The pooled overall response was 54.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 46.5%-62.5%). The pooled 1- and 2-year rates of LC were 82% (95% CI, 74%-88%) and 63% (95% CI, 50%-74%), respectively, and the pooled 1- and 2-year overall survival rates were 66% (95% CI, 57%-74%) and 42% (95% CI, 31%-53%), respectively. There was a strong positive association between SBRT dose and 1- and 2-year LC (P < .0001, P = .0002) and an association with 2-year OS (P = .03). Based on a metaregression of dose and LC, BED10 of 60 Gy, 80 Gy, and 100 Gy predicted 1-year LC of 70.5%, 84.8%, and 92.9% and 2-year LC of 47.8%, 70.1%, and 85.6%, respectively. The overall rate of grade 3 or higher toxicity was 1.8%.ConclusionsSBRT of adrenal metastases provides good 1-year LC with an excellent safety profile, and dose escalation may be associated with improved LC. Prospective studies are needed to validate these findings and determine whether there are subsets of patients for whom adrenal metastasis-directed SBRT may confer a survival advantage.
