Abstract
BACKGROUND Oligo-progression or further recurrence is an open issue in the multi-integrated management of oligometastatic disease (OMD). Re-irradiation with stereotactic body radiotherapy (re-SBRT) technique could represent a valuable treatment option to improve OMD clinical outcomes. MRI-guided allows real-time visualization of the target volumes and online adaptive radiotherapy (oART). The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity profile of MRI-guided repeated SBRT (MRIg-reSBRT) in the OMD setting and propose a re-SBRT classification. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients (pts) with recurrent liver metastases or abdominal metastatic lesions between 1 and 5 centimeters from liver candidate to MRIg-reSBRT showing geometric overlap between the different SBRT courses and assessing whether they were in field (type 1) or not (type 2). RESULTS Eighteen pts completed MRIg-reSBRT course for 25 metastatic hepatic/perihepatic lesions from July 2019 to January 2020. A total of 20 SBRT courses: 15 Type 1 re-SBRT (75%) and 5 Type 2 re-SBRT (25%) was delivered. Mean interval between the first SBRT and MRIg-reSBRT was 8,6 months. Mean prescribed dose for the first treatment was 43 Gy (range 24-50 Gy, mean BEDα/β10=93), while 41 Gy (range 16-50 Gy, mean BEDα/β10=92) for MRIg-reSBRT. Average liver dose was 3,9 Gy (range 1-10 Gy) and 3,7 Gy (range 1,6-8 Gy) for the first SBRT and MRIg-reSBRT, respectively. No acute or late toxicities were reported at a median follow-up of 10,7 months. The 1-year OS and PFS was 73,08% and 50%, respectively. Overall Clinical Benefit was 54%. CONCLUSIONS MRIg-reSBRT could be considered an effective and safe option in the multi-integrated treatment of OMD.

Abstract
Background ARTO trial was designed to evaluate the difference in terms of outcomes between patients affected by oligo metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treated with Abiraterone acetate and randomized to receive or not SBRT on all sites of disease. Here, we present a preliminary analysis conducted on patients enrolled at promoting institution. Objective To present a preliminary overview about population features, clinical outcomes, adverse events, quality of life and explorative translational research. Design, setting, and participants ARTO (NCT03449719) is a phase II trial including patients affected by oligo mCRPC, randomized to receive standard of care (GnRH agonist or antagonist plus abiraterone acetate 1000 mg and oral prednisone 10 mg daily) with or without SBRT on all metastatic sites of disease. All subjects have < 3 bone or nodal metastases. All patients are treated in I line mCRPC setting, no previous lines of treatment for mCRPC are allowed. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis Data about a mono-centric cohort of 42 patients enrolled are presented in the current analysis, with focus on baseline population features, PSA drop at 3 months, biochemical response, and quality of life outcomes. Descriptive statistics regarding translational research are also presented. Results and limitation Significant difference in terms of PSA drop at three months was not detected (p = 0.68). Biochemical response (PSA reduction > 50%) was reported in 73.7 versus 76.5% of patients in control vs SBRT arm, respectively (p = 0.84). All patients are alive. Progression occurred in 1 versus 0 patients in the control versus SBRT arm, respectively. After 3 months, an average decrease of 13 points in terms of Global Health Score was reported for the overall population. However, complete recovery was noticed at 6 months. Circulating tumor cells detection rate was 40%. Conclusions SBRT + Abiraterone treatment was safe and well tolerated, non-significant trend in terms of PSA drop and biochemical response at 3 months was detected in SBRT arm. Interestingly, CTCs detection in this selected cohort of oligo-mCRPC was lower if compared to historical data of unselected mCRPC patients.

Stereotactic or conventional radiotherapy for macroscopic prostate bed recurrence: a propensity score analysis. Radiol Med 2022; 127:449-457. [PMID: 35247134 PMCID: PMC8897730 DOI: 10.1007/s11547-022-01465-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2021] [Accepted: 02/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Purpose To assess outcomes between salvage radiation therapy (SRT) with curative intent and stereotactic radiotherapy for macroscopic prostate recurrence (SSRT) after radical prostatectomy (RP). In order to compare these two different options, we compared their outcomes with a propensity score-based matched analysis. Methods Data from 185 patients in seven Italian centres treated for macroscopic prostate bed recurrence after RP were retrospectively collected. To make a comparison between the two treatment groups, propensity matching was applied to create comparable cohorts.
Results After matching, 90 patients in the SRT and SSRT groups were selected (45 in each arm). Kaplan–Meier analysis did not show any significant differences in terms of BRFS and PFS between matched populations (p = 0.08 and p = 0.8, respectively). Multivariate models show that treatment was not associated with BRFS, neither in the whole or matched cohort, with HR of 2.15 (95%CI 0.63–7.25, p = 0.21) and 2.65 (95%CI 0.59–11.97, p = 0.21), respectively. In the matched cohort, lower rate of toxicity was confirmed for patients undergoing SSRT, with acute GI and GU adverse events reported in 4.4 versus 44.4% (p < 0.001) and 28.9 versus 46.7% (p = 0.08) of patients, and late GI and GU adverse events reported in 0 versus 13.3% (p = 0.04) and 6.7 versus 22.2% (p = 0.03) of patients, respectively.
Conclusion Considering the favourable therapeutic ratio of this approach and the lower number of fractions needed, SSRT should be considered as an attractive alternative to conventional SRT in this setting.

Abstract
The main aim of MBM treatment is to palliate neurological symptoms and to maintain an adequate QoL. SRT could be the “new standard” over WBI in the management of MBM patients. Neurocognitive functions could deteriorate more after WBI than after SRT.
Aims To evaluate neurocognitive performance, daily activity and quality of life (QoL), other than usual oncologic outcomes, among patients with brain metastasis ≥5 (MBM) from solid tumors treated with Stereotactic Brain Irradiation (SBI) or Whole Brain Irradiation (WBI). Methods This multicentric randomized controlled trial will involve the enrollment of 100 patients (50 for each arm) with MBM ≥ 5, age ≥ 18 years, Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) ≥ 70, life expectancy > 3 months, known primary tumor, with controlled or controllable extracranial disease, baseline Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score ≥ 20/30, Barthel Activities of Daily Living score ≥ 90/100, to be submitted to SBI by LINAC with monoisocentric technique and non-coplanar arcs (experimental arm) or to WBI (control arm). The primary endpoints are neurocognitive performance, QoL and autonomy in daily-life activities variations, the first one assessed by MoCa Score and Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised, the second one through the EORTC QLQ-C15-PAL and QLQ-BN-20 questionnaires, the third one through the Barthel Index, respectively. The secondary endpoints are time to intracranial failure, overall survival, retreatment rate, acute and late toxicities, changing of KPS. It will be considered significant a statistical difference of at least 30% between the two arms (statistical power of 80% with a significance level of 95%). Discussion Several studies debate what is the decisive factor accountable for the development of neurocognitive decay among patients undergoing brain irradiation for MBM: radiation effect on clinically healthy brain tissue or intracranial tumor burden? The answer to this question may come from the recent technological advancement that allows, in a context of a significant time saving, improved patient comfort and minimizing radiation dose to off-target brain, a selective treatment of MBM simultaneously, otherwise attackable only by WBI. The achievement of a local control rate comparable to that obtained with WBI remains the fundamental prerequisite. Trial registration NCT number: NCT04891471.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess prospectively the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for adrenal gland metastasis, with a focus on the assessment of the irradiated subjects' endocrinological function. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 36 patients were enrolled from 2017 to 2020 in this prospective phase II trial. Patients were treated with Linac-based SBRT, with a dose of 45 Gy in 3 consecutive fractions. Primary end-point was local control (LC) of the treated lesions and secondary end-points included evaluation of acute and late toxicity, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and the impact on the hormonal production of adrenal glands. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 9.5 months, LC rates at 1 and 2 years were 94.7% and 88.4%, respectively. Rates of PFS at 1 and 2 years were 50.5% and 29.8%, with a median PFS of 14.7 months. Rates of OS at 1 and 2 years were 62.9% and 44.1%. At univariate analysis, oligorecurrence was associated with better OS compared to oligoprogressive or synchronous metastatic disease. No grade 3 or greater toxicities were registered and only a minority of patients (22.2%) reported mild treatment-related side effects. Hormonal and electrolytes production was assessed before and after treatment, showing only a slight and transient variation within the reference ranges. CONCLUSION SBRT on adrenal metastases has been confirmed to be a feasible and effective treatment. With an excellent disease control and the preservation of the endocrine function, SBRT with ablative dose can be considered a viable alternative to more invasive approaches.

Abstract
It is still unclear whether cell-free DNA (cfDNA) can replace solid-tissue biopsy. A 59-year-old man developed castration-resistant prostate cancer with a liver metastasis. We performed a liver biopsy and collected a cfDNA sample. Although he underwent radiofrequency ablation, tumors recurred and he was transferred to another hospital. We performed next-generation sequencing using DNA from the biopsy tissue and cfDNA. BRCA2 p.T3033fs and AURKA F31I were detected in both the biopsy tissue and the cfDNA. cfDNA may be useful as a liquid biopsy for monitoring the gene profile of aggressive prostate cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To report preliminary data on feasibility and patient-reported outcomes following PSMA-PET/CT guided SBRT by means of 1.5 T MRI-Linac. METHODS AND MATERIALS Between October 2019 and April 2020, twenty consecutive castration sensitive oligorecurrent prostate cancer patients were enrolled in an ethical committee approved prospective observational study (Protocol n. XXXX) and treated with PSMA-PET/CT guided SBRT by means of 1.5 T MRI-Linac (Unity, Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden). The mean delivered dose was 35 Gy in 5 fractions. Clinicians reported toxicity was prospectively collected according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0. Quality of life (QoL) assessment was performed using EORTC-QLQ C30 questionnaires administered at baseline, end of treatment and at first follow-up. RESULTS Twenty-five lesions in 20 castration sensitive oligorecurrent patients were treated: the most commonly treated anatomic sites were nodal (n = 16) and pelvic bone (n = 9). Median PSA-value preMRI guided SBRT was 1.16 ng/mL (range, 0.27-8.9), whereas median PSA value at first follow-up after SBRT was 0.44 ng/mL (range, 0.06-8.15). At first follow-up, for 16 patients showing detectable PSA, PSMA-PET/CT was performed detecting, respectively, in 6 cases partial response and in 10 cases complete response. In the remaining cases, PSA-value was undetectable after SBRT. Radiotherapy treatment was safe and well tolerated according to the PROMs. No acute G2 or higher toxicities were recorded. CONCLUSIONS The current series represent the largest one exploring the feasibility and patient-reported outcomes following PSMA-PET/CT guided SBRT by means of 1.5 T MRI-Linac. The preliminary findings here reported are encouraging in terms of effectiveness and tolerability.

Abstract
In the last years, several evidences demonstrated the role of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in the oligometastatic disease and the possibility to increase survival in selected patients. In 2020 the study group "biology and treatment of the oligometastatic disease" of the Italian Association of Radiotherapy and Clinical Oncology (AIRO) conducted a survey evaluating the attitude of physicians in treating the oligometastatic disease and the definition of it. An electronic questionnaire was administered online to the society members. 105 questionnaires were returned. 78% responders considered as oligometastatic a disease with ≤ 5 metastases. The majority of the responders (77%) treated > 50 patients in the last year, and 89% responders agreed in considering every oligometastatic tumor susceptible to local treatments. Regarding the clinical management of the oligometastatic disease, the majority of the responders (66%) suggested an interdisciplinary discussion. When choosing a treatment option for fit patients with a single oligometastatic focus, 52% of the responders agreed in proposing only SBRT. In the case of unfit patients with a single oligometastatic lesion the agreement was in favor of the SBRT alone (89%). In the oligoprogressive setting, 41% responders opted to continue the current systemic treatment and to add SBRT, while in the case of oligoresidual disease, 70% responders was in favor of adding SBRT and continuing the current systemic treatment. In conclusions, the survey illustrated the current agreement and prescribing attitude for oligometastatic patients in Italy. The non-homogenous agreement in some clinical scenarios suggest the need of more robust evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For patients with colon cancer with lung metastasis, conventional radiotherapy is commonly used, which mainly acts on the double-stranded DNA inside the tumor cells. However, many foreign studies have found that increasing the dose of radiotherapy cannot improve the prognosis of patients, and because of its side effects on normal tissues, the commonly used dose of radiotherapy is usually between 60 and 70 Gy. However, the local control of lung tumors using this dose is not good. With the rapid development of science and technology, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) technology has been widely used in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, and SBRT is also used in patients with colon cancer and lung metastasis. However, some studies have found that because there are more hypoxic cells in colon cancer tissues than in other tissues, and hypoxic cells are relatively insensitive to radiation, the efficacy of SBRT in patients with lung metastasis from colon cancer is worse than that in patients with lung metastasis from other sites. However, this conclusion is controversial. There is no definite conclusion about the optimal dose of radiotherapy. Some studies have found that increasing the dose of radiotherapy can improve the prognosis of patients with colon cancer and lung metastasis. However, this conclusion is controversial. On the basis of many studies both in China and other countries, this study made a meta-analysis on the efficacy of SBRT in the treatment of colon cancer with lung metastasis and non-colon cancer with lung metastasis, as well as a comparison of the efficacy of different radiation doses in the treatment of colon cancer with lung metastasis, in order to provide evidence-based medicine-related evidence.
AIM To compare the efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy for colon cancer with lung metastasis and non-colon cancer with lung metastasis (Study 1), and to compare the efficacy of different doses of radiotherapy for colon cancer with lung metastasis (Study 2).
Methods
The controlled trials including cases with pulmonary oligometastases from colon cancer published from January 2008 to December 2018 were searched according to the method of the Cochrane Collaboration, and meta-analysis was carried out by using RevMan5.3 software.
Results
Fourteen studies were included, of which nine were included in Study 1, involving 486 patients with colon cancer and 938 with non-colon cancer, and five were included in Study 2, involving 157 patients treated with high doses and 185 treated with low doses. Meta-analysis indicated that the clinical efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy for pulmonary oligometastases from colorectal was significantly lower than that for pulmonary oligometastases from other cancers, and that the efficacy of high doses was significantly better than that of low doses (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
SBRT has worse efficacy for pulmonary oligometastases from colorectal than for those from other cancer, and better efficacy for pulmonary oligometastases from colon cancer can be achieved by dose escalation.
