Abstract
To further optimize radiotherapy, a more personalized treatment towards individual patient's risk profiles, dissecting both patient-specific tumor and normal tissue response to multimodality treatments is needed. Novel developments in radiobiology, using in vitro patient-specific complex tissue resembling 3D models and multiomics approaches at a spatial single-cell level, may provide unprecedented insight into the radiation responses of tumors and normal tissue. Here, we describe the necessary team effort, including all disciplines in radiation oncology, to integrate such data into clinical prediction models and link the relatively "big data" from the clinical practice, allowing accurate patient stratification for personalized treatment approaches.

Immunotargets Ther 2024; 13:435-445. [PMID: 39257515 PMCID: PMC11385699 DOI: 10.2147/itt.s476040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 09/04/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Immunotherapy has become the standard treatment for driving gene-negative advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, compared to PD-L1-positive patients, the efficacy of Anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy is suboptimal in PD-L1-negative advanced NSCLC. In this study, we aim to analyze the optimal immunotherapy approach for PD-L1-negative NSCLC patients and develop a new nomogram to enhance the clinical predictability of immunotherapy for NSCLC patients. Methods In this study, we retrieved clinical information and genomic data from cBioPortal for NSCLC patients undergoing immunotherapy. Cox regression analyses were utilized to screen the clinical information and genomic data that related to survival. The prognostic-relate genes function was studied by comprehensive bioinformatics analyses. The Kaplan-Meier plot method was employed for survival analysis. Results A total of 199 PD-L1-negative NSCLC patients were included in this study. Among them, 165 patients received Anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy, while 34 patients received Anti-PD-(L)1+Anti-CTLA-4 combination therapy. The Anti-PD-(L)1+Anti-CTLA-4 combination therapy demonstrated significantly higher PFS compared to the Anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy. The mutation status of KRAS, ANO1, COL14A1, LTBP1. ERBB4 and PCSK5 were found to correlate with PFS. Utilizing the clinicopathological parameters and genomic data of the patients, a novel nomogram was developed to predict the prognosis of Anti-PD-(L)1+Anti-CTLA-4 combination therapy. Conclusion Our study revealed that KRAS, ANO1, COL14A1, LTBP1. ERBB4 and PCSK5 mutation could serve as predictive biomarkers for patients with Anti-PD-(L)1+Anti-CTLA-4 combination therapy. Our systematic nomogram demonstrates significant potential in predicting the prognosis for NSCLC patients with responsive to dual PD-1/CTLA-4 blockade.

Abstract
Background Immunotherapy has become the standard treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, a subset of the most advanced NSCLC patients fails to respond adequately to Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Developing new nomograms and integrating prognostic factors are crucial for improving the clinical predictability of NSCLC patients undergoing ICIs. Methods Clinical information and genomic data of NSCLC patients undergoing ICIs were retrieved from cBioPortal. Gene alterations associated with durable clinical benefit (DCB) were compared to those linked to no durable benefit (NDB). The Kaplan-Meier plot method was employed for survival analysis, and a novel nomogram was formulated by selecting pertinent clinical variables. Results For the NSCLC patients receiving immunotherapy, three subgroups were identified based on the treatment regimen, including anti-PD-1 monotherapy, anti-PD-1 combination with anti-CTLA-4, and first-line treatment. The mutation status of TP53, PGR, PTPRT, RELN, MUC19, LRP1B, and FAT3 was found to be associated with progression-free survival (PFS). Using the clinicopathological parameters and genomic data of the patients, we developed three novel nomograms to predict the prognosis of ICI treatment in different subgroups. Conclusion Our study revealed that PGR, PTPRD, RELN, MUC19, LRP1B, and FAT3 mutation could serve as predictive biomarkers. Our systematic nomograms demonstrate significant potential in predicting the prognosis for NSCLC patients with sensitivity to different ICI treatment strategies.

[PMID: 37958408 PMCID: PMC10648904 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15215234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Oligometastatic disease (OMD) is currently known as an intermediate state of cancer, characterized by a limited number of systemic metastatic lesions for which local ablative therapy could be curative. Indeed, data from multiple clinical trials have illustrated an increase in overall survival (OS) for cancer patients when local ablative therapy was included in the systemic adjuvant therapy. Given that no driver and somatic mutations specific to OMD are currently established, the diagnosis of OMD is mainly based on the results of X-ray studies. In 2020, 20 international experts from the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) developed a comprehensive system for the characterization and classification of OMD. They identified 17 OMD characteristics that needed to be assessed in all patients who underwent radical local treatment. These characteristics reflect the tumor biology and clinical features of the disease underlying the development of OMD independently of the primary tumor type and the number of metastatic lesions. In particular, the system involves the characteristics of the primary tumor (e.g., localization, histology, TNM stage, mutational status, specific tumor markers), clinical parameters (e.g., disease-free interval, treatment-free interval), therapies (e.g., local, radical or palliative treatment, the numbers of the therapeutic regimens), and type of OMD (e.g., invasive). Based on the aforementioned criteria, an algorithm was introduced into the clinic to classify OMDs collectively according to their nomenclature. A history of polymetastatic disease (PMD) prior to OMD is used as a criterion to delineate between induced OMD (previous history of PMD after successful therapy) and genuine OMD (no history of PMD). Genuine OMD is divided into two states: recurrent OMD (i.e., after a previous history of OMD) and de novo OMD (i.e., a first newly diagnosed oligometastatic disease). de novo OMD is differentiated into synchronous and metachronous forms depending on the length of time from the primary diagnosis to the first evidence of OMD. In the case of synchronous OMD, this period is less than 6 months. Lastly, metachronous and induced OMD are divided into oligorecurrence, oligoprogression, and oligopersistence, depending on whether OMD is firstly diagnosed during an absence (oligo recurrence) or presence (oligoprogression or oligopersistence) of active systemic therapy. This classification and nomenclature of OMD are evaluated prospectively in the OligoCare study. In this article, we present a practical review of the current concept of OMD and discuss the available prospective clinical trials and potential future directions.

CT-based radiomics prediction of complete response after stereotactic body radiation therapy for patients with lung metastases. Strahlenther Onkol 2023:10.1007/s00066-023-02086-6. [PMID: 37256303 DOI: 10.1007/s00066-023-02086-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a key treatment modality for lung cancer patients. This study aims to develop a machine learning-based prediction model of complete response for lung oligometastatic cancer patients undergoing SBRT. MATERIALS AND METHODS CT images of 80 pulmonary oligometastases from 56 patients treated with SBRT were analyzed. The gross tumor volumes (GTV) were contoured on CT images. Patients that achieved complete response (CR) at 4 months were defined as responders. For each GTV, 107 radiomic features were extracted using the Pyradiomics software. The concordance correlation coefficients (CCC) between the region of interest (ROI)-based radiomics features obtained by the two segmentations were calculated. Pairwise feature interdependencies were evaluated using the Spearman rank correlation coefficient. The association of clinical variables and radiomics features with CR was evaluated with univariate logistic regression. Two supervised machine learning models, the logistic regression (LR) and the classification and regression tree analysis (CART), were trained to predict CR. The models were cross-validated using a five-fold cross-validation. The performance of models was assessed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and class-specific accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-measure evaluation metrics. RESULTS Complete response was associated with four radiomics features, namely the surface to volume ratio (SVR; p = 0.003), the skewness (Skew; p = 0.027), the correlation (Corr; p = 0.024), and the grey normalized level uniformity (GNLU; p = 0.015). No significant relationship between clinical parameters and CR was found. In the validation set, the developed LR and CART machine learning models had an accuracy, precision, and recall of 0.644 and 0.750, 0.644 and 0.651, and 0.635 and 0.754, respectively. The area under the curve for CR prediction was 0.707 and 0.753 for the LR and CART models, respectively. CONCLUSION This analysis demonstrates that radiomics features obtained from pretreatment CT could predict complete response of lung oligometastases following SBRT.

Abstract
Estimation of patient prognosis plays a central role in guiding decision making for the palliative management of metastatic disease, and a number of statistical models have been developed to provide survival estimates for patients in this context. In this review, we discuss several well-validated survival prediction models for patients receiving palliative radiotherapy to sites outside of the brain. Key considerations include the type of statistical model, model performance measures and validation procedures, studies' source populations, time points used for prognostication, and details of model output. We then briefly discuss underutilization of these models, the role of decision support aids, and the need to incorporate patient preference in shared decision making for patients with metastatic disease who are candidates for palliative radiotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a treatment modality with curative intent for oligometastatic cancer patients, commonly defined by a low-burden metastatic disease with 1-5 systemic metastases. Better knowledge of the clinical profile and prognostic factors in oligometastatic cancer patients could help to improve the selection of candidates who may obtain most benefits from SBRT. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical data and outcome in term of overall survival (OS) of patients with oligometastatic disease treated with SBRT over a 6-year period. METHODS From 2013 to 2018, 284 solid tumor cancer patients with 1-5 oligometastases underwent SBRT at a large university-affiliated oncological center in Barcelona, Spain. Variables related to the patient profile, tumor, oligometastatic disease, and treatment were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 327 metastatic tumors were treated with SBRT. In 65.5% of cases, metachronous tumors were diagnosed at least 1 year after diagnosis of the primary tumor. The median age of the patients was 73.9 years and 66.5% were males. The median follow-up was 37.5 months. The most common primary tumors were lung and colorectal cancer, with lung and bone as the most commonly treated metastatic sites. Ninety-three percent of patients showed a Karnofsky score (KPS) between 80 and 100. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological type. The median overall survival was 53.4 months, with 1-, 2- and 5-year survival rates of 90.5%, 73.9% and 43.4%, respectively. Overall survival rates of breast (67.6 months, 95% CI 56.4-78.9), urological (63.3 months, 95% CI 55.8-70.8), and colorectal (50.8 months, 95% CI 44.2-57.4) tumors were higher as compared with other malignancies (20 months, 95% CI 11.2-28.8 months) (p < 0.001). Patients with Karnofsky score (KPS) of 90 and 100 showed a significantly better survival than those with impaired performance status (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION SBRT appears to be well tolerated and safe approach in oligometastatic patients. Patients with good performance status and with primary breast, urological and colorectal cancer have higher OS compared with other malignancies. More studies are necessary to evaluate the prognostic factors in oligometastatic disease (OMD) in order to select patients who could benefit more from this therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Background and introduction Growing evidence supports a combined modality treatment strategy for patients with oligometastatic disease. However, lack of phase III trial data and uncertainties around patient selection highlight the importance of multidisciplinary tumor boards (MDT) in therapeutic decision-making. This study aimed to analyze the recognition of and treatment recommendations for oligometastatic patients by MDTs at a large comprehensive cancer center in order to better understand current treatment patterns of oligometastasis. Materials and methods For this retrospective single-center cross-sectional study, oligometastatic patients were identified by screening oncological PET and concurrent brain MRI scans conducted at our center in 2020. MDT discussions and recommendations within four weeks of the imaging diagnosis of oligometastasis were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors for the addition of local therapy to standard-of-care. Results A total of 787 oligometastatic cases were identified. Lung cancer and mesothelioma, skin cancer, and prostate cancer were the most common histologies with 231 (29 %), 160 (20 %), and 84 (11 %) cases, respectively. Almost half of the cases (46 %) had one distant metastasis on imaging only. More than half (56 %) of all oligometastatic cases were discussed at an MDT. In 47 % of cases, for which a therapeutic recommendation was reached in an MDT, local therapy was part of the therapeutic strategy. On logistic regression analysis, oligometastatic skin cancer was significantly associated with a recommendation for local therapy (p < 0.05), whereas the number of oligometastases was not (p = 0.202). Conclusion More than half of oligometastatic cases were discussed in MDTs, of which more than every second received a recommendation including the addition of local therapy. This frequency of MDT use underscores the importance of multidisciplinary decision-making, yet efforts should be increased to standardize reporting and use standard nomenclature on oligometastasis in MDTs to better frame multidisciplinary discussion.

Abstract
Objective To develop a prediction nomogram for the risk of lung-related diseases (LRD) in construction workers. Methods Seven hundred and fifty-two construction workers were recruited. A self- designed questionnaire was performed to collected relevant information. Chest X-ray was taken to judge builders' lung health. The potential predictors subsets of the risk of LRD were screened by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and univariate analysis, and determined by using multivariate logistic regression analysis, then were used for developing a prediction nomogram for the risk of LRD. C-index, calibration curve, receiver operating characteristic curve, decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve analysis (CICA) were used to evaluation the identification, calibration, predictive ability and clinical effectiveness of the nomogram. Results Five hundred and twenty-six construction workers were allocated to training group and 226 to validation group. The predictors included in the nomogram were symptoms, years of dust exposure, work in shifts and labor intensity. Our model showed good discrimination ability, with a bootstrap-corrected C index of 0.931 (95% CI = 0.906-0.956), and had well-fitted calibration curves. The area under the curve (AUC) of the nomogram were (95% CI = 0.906-0.956) and 0.945 (95% CI = 0.891-0.999) in the training and validation groups, respectively. The results of DCA and CICA indicated that the nomogram may have clinical usefulness. Conclusion We established and validated a novel nomogram that can provide individual prediction of LRD for construction workers. This practical prediction model may help occupational physicians in decision making and design of occupational health examination.

The oligometastatic spectrum in the era of improved detection and modern systemic therapy. Nat Rev Clin Oncol 2022; 19:585-599.

Abstract
Metastases remain the leading cause of cancer-related mortality. The oligometastasis hypothesis postulates that a spectrum of metastatic spread exists and that some patients with a limited burden of metastases can be cured with ablative therapy. Over the past decade, substantial advances in systemic therapies have resulted in considerable improvements in the outcomes of patients with metastatic cancers, warranting re-examination of the oligometastatic paradigm and the role of local ablative therapies within the context of the improved therapeutic responses, shifting patterns of disease recurrence and possible synergy with systemic treatments. Herein, we reframe the oligometastatic phenotype as a dynamic state for which locally ablative, metastasis-directed therapy improves clinical outcomes, including by prolonging survival and increasing cure rates. Important risk factors defining the metastatic spectrum are highlighted that inform both staging and therapy. Finally, we synthesize the literature on combining local therapies with modern systemic treatments, identifying general themes to optimally integrate ablative therapies in this context.

Completeness of reporting oligometastatic disease characteristics in literature and influence on oligometastatic disease classification using the ESTRO/EORTC nomenclature. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2022; 114:587-595.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is increasing evidence for the integration of locally ablative therapy into multimodality treatment of oligometastatic disease (OMD). To support standardised data collection, analysis, and comparison, a consensus OMD classification based on fundamental disease and treatment characteristics has previously been established. This study investigated the completeness of reporting the proposed OMD characteristics in literature and evaluated whether the proposed OMD classification system can be applied to the historical data. METHODS A systematic literature review was performed in Medline, Embase, and Cochrane, searching for prospective and retrospective studies, where SBRT was a treatment component of OMD. Reporting of the OMD characteristics as described in the EORTC/ESTRO classification was analyzed, feasibility to retrospectively classify the proposed OMD states was investigated and the impact of the categorisation on overall survival (OS) was evaluated. RESULTS Our study shows incomplete reporting of the proposed OMD characteristics. The most fully reported characteristic was 'type of involved organs' (88/95 studies); 'history of cancer progression' was the least reported (not mentioned in 50/95 studies). Retrospective OMD classification of existing literature was only possible for 7/95 studies. With respect to categorization as de novo, repeat or induced OMD, homogeneous patient cohorts were observed in 21/95 studies, most frequently de novo OMD, in 20 studies. Differences in OS at 2, 3, or 5 years were not statistically significant between the different states. OS was significantly influenced by primary tumor histology, with superior OS observed for prostate cancer and worst OS observed for non-small cell lung cancer. CONCLUSION The largely incomplete reporting of the proposed OMD characteristics hampers a retrospective classification of existing literature. To facilitate future comparison of individual studies, as well as validation of the OMD classification, comprehensive reporting of OMD characteristics using standardised terminology is recommended, as proposed by the EORTC/ESTRO classification system and following ESTRO-ASTRO consensus.

Distant metastasis velocity as a novel prognostic score for overall survival after disease progression following stereotactic body radiotherapy for oligometastatic disease. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2022; 114:871-882.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with extracranial oligometastatic disease (OMD), distant failure (DF) after local ablative therapies is common. Prognostic scores to guide salvage treatment decision making are currently lacking. Analogous to brain metastasis velocity (BMV), we propose distant metastasis velocity (DMV) as a prognostic score for overall survival (OS) and widespread failure-free survival (WFFS) after DF following metastasis-directed stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with ≤5 metastases from solid organ malignancies treated with SBRT to all lesions at our institution from 2014 to 2019 were screened and patients who developed DF were included in this retrospective analysis. DMV was defined as metastases/month, determined at DF, and transformed into a 3-level categorical variable with cutpoints that minimized the log-rank p-value for OS. Simple and multiple linear regression was used to predict DMV based on different patient and treatment variables. The association of DMV and other variables with OS was studied by univariable and multivariable Cox regression. RESULTS 385 patients were screened, of which 303 developed DF and were included. The median DMV was 0.7 metastases/month. Patients with <0.5, 0.5-1.5, and >1.5 metastases/month were classified as low, intermediate, and high DMV, and had a median OS of 37.1, 26.7 and 16.8 months, respectively (p<0.0001). On multivariable analysis, DMV was a strong independent predictor of OS, with a hazard ratio of 0.31 for low (p<0.001) compared with high DMV. Lower DMV was significantly associated with longer WFFS (p=0.04). The cumulative metastases volume at baseline (regression coefficient β 0.03, p=0.04) and oligoprogressive/-persistent disease (β 1.91, p=0.10) predicted higher DMV. CONCLUSION DMV is a novel metric strongly associated with OS and WFFS after DF following SBRT in OMD patients, and should be evaluated for decision making about the optimal multimodality salvage treatment strategy. The prognostic value of DMV should be validated in prospective studies.

Abstract
30-60% of cancer patients develop lung metastases, mostly from primary tumors in the colon-rectum, lung, head and neck area, breast and kidney. Nowadays, stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT ) is considered the ideal modality for treating pulmonary metastases. When lung metastases are suspected, complete disease staging includes a total body computed tomography (CT ) and/or positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET -CT ) scan. PET -CT has higher specificity and sensitivity than a CT scan when investigating mediastinal lymph nodes, diagnosing a solitary lung lesion and detecting distant metastases. For treatment planning, a multi-detector planning CT scan of the entire chest is usually performed, with or without intravenous contrast media or esophageal lumen opacification, especially when central lesions have to be irradiated. Respiratory management is recommended in lung SRT, taking the breath cycle into account in planning and delivery. For contouring, co-registration and/or matching planning CT and diagnostic images (as provided by contrast enhanced CT or PET-CT ) are useful, particularly for central tumors. Doses and fractionation schedules are heterogeneous, ranging from 33 to 60 Gy in 3-6 fractions. Independently of fractionation schedule, a BED10 > 100 Gy is recommended for high local control rates. Single fraction SRT (ranges 15-30 Gy) is occasionally administered, particularly for small lesions. SRT provides tumor control rates of up to 91% at 3 years, with limited toxicities. The present overview focuses on technical and clinical aspects related to treatment planning, dose constraints, outcome and toxicity of SRT for lung metastases.

Abstract
Purpose Radiomic models elaborate geometric and texture features of tumors extracted from imaging to develop predictors for clinical outcomes. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has been increasingly applied in the ablative treatment of thoracic tumors. This study aims to identify predictors of treatment responses in patients affected by early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or pulmonary oligo-metastases treated with SBRT and to develop an accurate machine learning model to predict radiological response to SBRT. Materials and Methods Computed tomography (CT) images of 85 tumors (stage I–II NSCLC and pulmonary oligo-metastases) from 69 patients treated with SBRT were analyzed. Gross tumor volumes (GTV) were contoured on CT images. Patients that achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) were defined as responders. One hundred ten radiomic features were extracted using PyRadiomics module based on the GTV. The association of features with response to SBRT was evaluated. A model using support vector machine (SVM) was then trained to predict response based solely on the extracted radiomics features. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to evaluate model performance of the identified radiomic predictors. Results Sixty-nine patients receiving thoracic SBRT from 2008 to 2018 were retrospectively enrolled. Skewness and root mean squared were identified as radiomic predictors of response to SBRT. The SVM machine learning model developed had an accuracy of 74.8%. The area under curves for CR, PR, and non-responder prediction were 0.86 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.794–0.921), 0.946 (95% CI, 0.873–0.978), and 0.857 (95% CI, 0.789–0.915), respectively. Conclusion Radiomic analysis of pre-treatment CT scan is a promising tool that can predict tumor response to SBRT.

Abstract
Background: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare gastrointestinal tumor with high malignancy. The aim of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the distant metastasis pattern and establish nomograms predicting survival for SBA. Methods: From 2010 to 2015, patients diagnosed with SBA were identified based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied to compare survival differences between metastasis patterns. Then, univariate and multivariate cox analyses were applied to screened out independent prognostic factors of cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS), and identify the risk factors for metastasis of SBA. To assess the discrimination and calibration of nomograms, the concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC), and decision curve analysis (DCA) were calculated. Results: Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that metastasis patterns were significantly correlated with CSS (p < 0.001) and OS (p < 0.001). Then, the metastasis pattern was showed to be an independent prognostic factor of OS and CSS in patients with SBA, as well as age, grade, T stage, N stage, surgery, retrieval of regional lymph nodes, and chemotherapy. Combining these factors, we constructed prognostic nomograms, which suggested that the metastasis pattern made the greatest contribution to the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for OS and CSS had a C-index of 0.787 and 0.793, respectively. Calibration curves showed an excellent agreement between probability and actual observation in the training and validation cohort. Decision curve analysis also exhibited its clinical value with an improved net benefit. In addition, the models we constructed had better prognostic accuracy and clinical utility than traditional TNM staging based on C-index and ROC. Further, Cox regression analysis showed that old age, poor differentiation, N2, and not receiving chemotherapy were the risk factors for prognosis in patients with metastatic SBA. Conclusion: As an independent prognostic factor, the metastasis pattern exhibited the greatest predictive effect on OS and CSS for patients with SBA. Adjuvant chemotherapy had a positive effect on the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for predicting 3-and 5-year OS and CSS of patients with SBA were constructed, which could identify patients with higher risk and might be superior in predicting the survival of patients with SBA than TNM staging.

Abstract
AIMS Oligometastatic disease (OMD) represents a spectrum of clinical scenarios and various classification systems have been proposed. Bone-only OMD can occur in patients with advanced prostate cancer and validated decision-making tools are needed to assist patient selection for metastasis-directed therapy. The aim of the present study was to determine the prognostic utility of a classification system for OMD. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of all patients with bone-only oligometastatic prostate cancer treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) since November 2011. SBRT was delivered using CyberKnife® and gantry-based linear accelerator platforms. All patients were classified into oligometastatic states based on the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology/European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (ESTRO/EORTC) classification system. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were carried out to determine the prognostic utility of this classification system. RESULTS In total, 105 patients with 145 osseous metastases were treated over 119 sessions. The median follow-up after SBRT was 23 months (interquartile range 10-39.8). Twelve patients had died after a median time of 31 months. The 3-year metastatic progression-free survival was 23% (95% confidence interval 13-32) and the 3-year overall survival was 88% (95% confidence interval 80-96). Patients in a metachronous oligometastatic state were 4.50 (95% confidence interval 1.19-17.10, P = 0.03) times more likely to experience metastatic progression compared with those with synchronous oligometastases, and 6.69 (95% confidence interval 1.05-42.50, P = 0.04) times more likely to experience any failure. Hazard ratio magnitudes increased for patients in a repeat oligometastatic state. The multivariate model for both metastatic progression-free survival and failure-free survival found prostate-specific antigen doubling time <4 months (P = 0.002; P = 0.05) to independently predict for progression. CONCLUSION The ESTRO/EORTC classification of OMD predicts for progression in patients treated with SBRT for bone-only oligometastatic prostate cancer at our institution. Further validation in prospective series over multiple tumour sites is needed. These characterisation factors should be assessed in patients considered for metastasis-directed therapy together with established prognostic features.

Abstract
Preclinical and early clinical evidence suggest that radical radiotherapy of oligometastatic disease in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients can impact outcomes with relatively limited toxicity. Whilst data from phase 2 randomized trials suggesting an improved overall survival (OS) with this treatment is promising, it has also illustrated the heterogeneity in this patient population and treatment. Oligometastatic disease in itself comprises a broad spectrum of patients, in terms of tumor load and location, stage of the disease and treatment history. This real-life variety in patient characteristics is often reflected in studies to a certain extent, hinting to the fact that all might benefit from radical radiotherapy to limited metastatic disease, yet leaving the question unanswered as to whom the ideal candidate is. Furthermore, differences between and within studies with regards to treatment modality, timing, radiation technique, and radiation dose are substantial. Also, preclinical and early clinical trials suggest that radiotherapy can work synergistically with checkpoint inhibitors by acting as an in situ cancer vaccine, therefore the combination of these two treatments in oligometastatic patients might entail the largest benefit. Ongoing randomized controlled phase 3 trials and prospective registry trials will further elucidate the true extent of benefit of this local treatment strategy and aid in identifying the ideal patient population and therapy. The current narrative review summarizes the clinical evidence on radiotherapy for oligometastatic NSCLC and highlights the remaining unknowns.

Abstract
Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been recognized as a unique, yet common, clinical entity over the past 2-3 decades. Numerous retrospective series and early phase single arm trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of aggressive approaches in select patients. In addition, results from recent randomized trials have demonstrated potential benefits of radiation therapy and surgery as a form of local ablative therapy (LAT) in prolonging disease-free survival and overall survival. However, more questions remain given the limitation of existing clinical evidence and the lack of well validated biomarkers. Advances in late stage randomized trials with biological correlatives may further clarify the role of LAT to assist with clinical decision making in treating patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. In this review, we discuss the clinical and biologic data surrounding patient selection for LAT in oligometastatic NSCLC, as well as future directions in prospective and translational studies.

Improving interinstitutional and intertechnology consistency of pulmonary SBRT by dose prescription to the mean internal target volume dose. Strahlenther Onkol 2021; 197:836-846. [PMID: 34196725 PMCID: PMC8397670 DOI: 10.1007/s00066-021-01799-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Dose, fractionation, normalization and the dose profile inside the target volume vary substantially in pulmonary stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) between different institutions and SBRT technologies. Published planning studies have shown large variations of the mean dose in planning target volume (PTV) and gross tumor volume (GTV) or internal target volume (ITV) when dose prescription is performed to the PTV covering isodose. This planning study investigated whether dose prescription to the mean dose of the ITV improves consistency in pulmonary SBRT dose distributions. Materials and methods This was a multi-institutional planning study by the German Society of Radiation Oncology (DEGRO) working group Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Radiotherapy. CT images and structures of ITV, PTV and all relevant organs at risk (OAR) for two patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were distributed to all participating institutions. Each institute created a treatment plan with the technique commonly used in the institute for lung SBRT. The specified dose fractionation was 3 × 21.5 Gy normalized to the mean ITV dose. Additional dose objectives for target volumes and OAR were provided. Results In all, 52 plans from 25 institutions were included in this analysis: 8 robotic radiosurgery (RRS), 34 intensity-modulated (MOD), and 10 3D-conformal (3D) radiation therapy plans. The distribution of the mean dose in the PTV did not differ significantly between the two patients (median 56.9 Gy vs 56.6 Gy). There was only a small difference between the techniques, with RRS having the lowest mean PTV dose with a median of 55.9 Gy followed by MOD plans with 56.7 Gy and 3D plans with 57.4 Gy having the highest. For the different organs at risk no significant difference between the techniques could be found. Conclusions This planning study pointed out that multiparameter dose prescription including normalization on the mean ITV dose in combination with detailed objectives for the PTV and ITV achieve consistent dose distributions for peripheral lung tumors in combination with an ITV concept between different delivery techniques and across institutions.

Combination of computed tomography imaging-based radiomics and clinicopathological characteristics for predicting the clinical benefits of immune checkpoint inhibitors in lung cancer. Respir Res 2021; 22:189. [PMID: 34183009 PMCID: PMC8240400 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-021-01780-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we tested whether a combination of radiomic features extracted from baseline pre-immunotherapy computed tomography (CT) images and clinicopathological characteristics could be used as novel noninvasive biomarkers for predicting the clinical benefits of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). METHODS The data from 92 consecutive patients with lung cancer who had been treated with ICIs were retrospectively analyzed. In total, 88 radiomic features were selected from the pretreatment CT images for the construction of a random forest model. Radiomics model 1 was constructed based on the Rad-score. Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, the Rad-score and significant predictors were integrated into a single predictive model (radiomics nomogram model 1) to predict the durable clinical benefit (DCB) of ICIs. Radiomics model 2 was developed based on the same Rad-score as radiomics model 1.Using multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, the Rad-score, and independent risk factors, radiomics nomogram model 2 was constructed to predict the progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS The models successfully predicted the patients who would benefit from ICIs. For radiomics model 1, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve values for the training and validation cohorts were 0.848 and 0.795, respectively, whereas for radiomics nomogram model 1, the values were 0.902 and 0.877, respectively. For the PFS prediction, the Harrell's concordance indexes for the training and validation cohorts were 0.717 and 0.760, respectively, using radiomics model 2, whereas they were 0.749 and 0.791, respectively, using radiomics nomogram model 2. CONCLUSIONS CT-based radiomic features and clinicopathological factors can be used prior to the initiation of immunotherapy for identifying NSCLC patients who are the most likely to benefit from the therapy. This could guide the individualized treatment strategy for advanced NSCLC.

Outcomes of extra-cranial stereotactic body radiotherapy for metastatic breast cancer: Treatment indication matters. Radiother Oncol 2021; 161:159-165. [PMID: 34119585 DOI: 10.1016/j.radonc.2021.06.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To summarize the clinical outcomes of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for metastatic breast cancer (mBC) from a large institution. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with mBC who received extra-cranial SBRT to metastatic lesions from 2011 to 2017 were identified. Treatment indications were: oligometastases, oligoprogression, and local control of dominant tumor (CDT). Endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), local control (LC) and cumulative incidence of starting/changing chemo or hormonal therapy (SCT). Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify predictive factors. RESULTS We analyzed 120 patients (193 treated metastatic lesions) with a median follow up of 15.25 months. 1-and 2-year LC rates were 89% and 86.6%, respectively. 1-and 2-year OS rates were 83.5% and 70%, respectively, with treatment indication and molecular subtype being the predictive factors on MVA. 1-year OS was 91.0%, 78.5% and 63.9% for oligometastases, oligoprogression and CDT, respectively (p = 0.003). The worst OS was seen in basal subtype with 1-and 2-year OS rates of 59.2% and 39.5% (p = 0.01). Treatment indication was found to be predictive for PFS and lower rates of SCT on MVA. 1-and 2-year PFS rates were 45% and 32%, respectively. The 1-year PFS for oligometastases, oligoprogression, and CDT was 66%, 19.6%, and 14.3%, respectively (p < 0.001). The cumulative incidence of SCT at 1-year was 12% for oligometastases, 39.7% for oligoprogression and 53.3% for CDT (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Patients treated for oligometastases have better OS and PFS than those treated for oligoprogression or CDT. SBRT may delay SCT in mBC patients, particularly those with oligometastases. SBRT provided an excellent LC in mBC patients.

The development and external validation of an overall survival nomogram in medically inoperable centrally located early-stage non-small cell lung carcinoma. Radiother Oncol 2021; 156:223-230. [PMID: 33418006 DOI: 10.1016/j.radonc.2020.12.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Revised: 12/18/2020] [Accepted: 12/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current nomograms predicting survival prognosis after stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are based on peripherally located tumors. However, patients with a central lung tumor tend to be older, the tumor is often larger and fraction-schedules are risk-adapted. Therefore, we developed and externally validated a nomogram to predict overall survival (OS) in patients having centrally located early-stage NSCLC treated with SBRT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent SBRT for centrally located NSCLC were identified and baseline characteristics were obtained. A nomogram was built to predict 6-month, 1-, 2- and 3-year OS using Cox proportional hazards model. The model building procedure was validated using bootstrap sampling. To determine generalizability, external validation was performed on a cohort of patients with central NSCLC treated with SBRT from another center. Discriminatory ability was measured with the concordance index (C-index) and calibration plots were used to compare Kaplan-Meier-estimated and nomogram-predicted OS. RESULTS The nomogram was built on data of 220 patients and consisted of the following variables: PTV, age, WHO performance status, tumor lobe location and ultracentral location. The C-index of the nomogram (corrected for optimism) was moderate at 0.64 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.59-0.69). Calibration plots showed favorable predictive accuracy. The external validation showed acceptable validity with a C-index of 0.62 (95% CI 0.61-0.64). DISCUSSION We developed and externally validated the first nomogram to estimate the OS-probability in patients with centrally located NSCLC treated with SBRT. This nomogram is based on 5 patient and tumor characteristics and gives an individualized survival prediction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The role of radiotherapy (RT) for oligometastases is currently established in different oncological settings but data on salivary gland cancer (SGC) are lacking. We evaluated the role of RT in oligometastatic SGC patients, focusing on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective, multicentric study of oligometastatic SGC treated with palliative RT or SBRT. Endpoints included response evaluation and local control (LC). RESULTS Between 2006 and 2016, 64 patients were collected from 9 Italian Cancer Centers, on behalf of the Italian Association of Radiotherapy and Clinical Oncology (AIRO) Head and Neck Working Group. 37 patients (57.8%) were suffering from adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) and 27 patients (42.2%) had non-ACC. Thirty-four patients underwent palliative RT (53,1%), and 30 received SBRT (46,9%). Most common metastatic sites were bone for palliative RT and lung for SBRT. Among patients treated with SBRT, an objective response or a stability was observed in all treated lesions. After a median follow-up of 29.2 months (range 2.3-117.1), LC at 12 months was 57.5% for patients treated with SBRT and was higher in ACC subgroup. CONCLUSION We confirmed the potential role of SBRT in the management of oligometastatic SGC patients to control limited burden of disease considering the absence of effective systemic therapies.

Abstract
Background To investigate the effect of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) on pulmonary oligometastases and to analyze the clinical factors and dose parameters affecting local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) and overall survival (OS). Methods This study retrospectively enrolled a total of 84 patients (148 lesions) treated in our department from May 2015 to November 2018. Pulmonary oligometastases was defined as up to 5 metastatic lesions in the lung and with both the primary tumor and any extra-thoracic metastases being controlled. Patients receiving a BED10 (biological effective dose, α/β =10) of SBRT ≥75 Gy and a dose/fraction ≥4 Gy were enrolled. The patient group consisted of 52 men (61.9%) and 32 women (38.1%), with a median age 56 years (range, 29-80 years). Median tumor diameter was 1.71cm (range, 1.2-5.0 cm). The BED10 was 75-119 Gy in 4-15 fractions. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed on factors predicting the outcomes. Results All patients completed the treatment as planned, and the median follow-up time was 20.3 months. The median OS for the entire group was 34.3 months, with an actuarial 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-year OS of 74.7%, 59.4%, 49.7%, and 36.8%, respectively. Among the 148 lesions in the whole group, 19 (12.8%) lesions had local recurrence (LR). The median LRFS time for all patients was 56.9 months. The LRFS rate was 93.6%, 83.5%, 81.4%, and 76.6% at 1, 2, 3, and 5 years, respectively. No patient developed acute grade 3 or 4 toxicity. On univariate analysis, age ≥63 years old, primary site of colorectal cancer, BED10 <85.2 Gy, pathological type of adenocarcinoma, planning target volume (PTV) min BED10 <76.6 Gy, and gross tumor volume (GTV) ≥8.8 cc, were significantly associated with poorer LRFS. Multivariate analysis showed that age ≥63 years old, primary site of colorectal cancer, and PTV min BED10 <76.6 Gy were significant risk factors affecting LRFS. Conclusions SBRT is feasible for pulmonary oligometastasis with favorable local control and minimal toxicity. Multiple dose parameters, instead of a prescription dose only, in combination with clinical parameters, should be considered for optimal local control.

Abstract
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has been shown to achieve high local control rates in limited metastatic burden of disease. Few papers reported on the efficacy of SBRT in nodal oligometastases. The primary aim of the present paper was to analyze the treatment outcome in this setting. Data from DESTROY-1 and SRS-DESTROY-2 phase I clinical trials were reviewed and analyzed. These trials were based on a 5 fractions and a single fraction regimens, respectively. End-points of this analysis were toxicity rates, overall response rate (ORR), and local control (LC). Patients treated between December 2003 and January 2018, with any metastatic site, and primary tumor type and histology were included. One hundred-eighty-one patients (M/F: 93/88; median age: 67, range 37-88) treated with SBRT on 253 nodal lesions were analyzed. Initially, the used technique was 3D-CRT (20.9%), while subsequently treatments were delivered by VMAT (79.1%). The total dose to the PTV ranged between 12 Gy/single fraction to 50 Gy/5 fractions. With a median follow-up of 21 months (2-124), no grade 3 acute or late toxicity was recorded. ORR based on functional imaging was 92.5% with a complete response rate of 76%. Two- and three-year actuarial LC were 81.6% and 76.0%, respectively. Our large pooled analysis confirms the efficacy and safety of SBRT/SRS in patients with nodal metastases and identifies clinical and treatment variables able to predict complete response and local control rate.

Kessel KA, Grosser RCE, Kraus KM, Hoffmann H, Oechsner M, Combs SE. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with lung metastases - prognostic factors and long-term survival using patient self-reported outcome (PRO). BMC Cancer 2020; 20:442. [PMID: 32429940 PMCID: PMC7236290 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-6635-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2019] [Accepted: 02/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aims to evaluate long-term side-effects and outcomes and confirm prognostic factors after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) of pulmonary lesions. This is the first work that combines the investigated data from patient charts and patient-reported outcome (PRO) up to 14 years after therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 219 patients and 316 lung metastases treated between 2004 and 2019. The pulmonary lesions received a median dose and dose per fraction of 35 Gy (range: 14-60.5 Gy) and 8 Gy (range: 3-20 Gy) to the surrounding isodose. During the last 1.5 years of monitoring, we added PRO assessment to our follow-up routine. We sent an invitation to a web-based survey questionnaire to all living patients whose last visit was more than 6 months ago. RESULTS Median OS was 27.6 months. Univariate analysis showed a significant influence on OS for KPS ≥90%, small gross tumor volume (GTV) and planning target volume (PTV), the absence of external metastases, ≤3 pulmonary metastases, and controlled primary tumor. The number of pulmonary metastases and age influenced local control (LC) significantly. During follow-up, physicians reported severe side-effects ≥ grade 3 in only 2.9% within the first 6 months and in 2.5% after 1 year. Acute symptomatic pneumonitis grade 2 was observed in 9.7%, as grade 3 in 0.5%. During PRO assessment, 39 patients were contacted, 38 patients participated, 14 participated twice during follow-up. Patients reported 15 cases of severe side effects (grade ≥ 3) according to PROCTCAE classification. Severe dyspnea (n = 6) was reported mostly. CONCLUSION We could confirm excellent local control and low toxicity rates. PROs improve and complement follow-up care. They are an essential measure in addition to the physician-reported outcomes. Future research must be conducted regarding the correct interpretation of PRO data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The rate of oncologic pulmonary death after stereotactic body radiotherapy for pulmonary oligometastases has never been reported. The purpose of current study was to investigate the rate of freedom from oncologic pulmonary death (FOPD) and to analyze factors affecting for FOPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS The inclusion criteria for this retrospective study were that SBRT was performed between 2004 and 2015, the number of metastases was 5 or less, the primary lesion and extrathoracic metastases needed to be controlled before SBRT and a biological effective dose (BED10) of 75 Gy or more was needed. The Kaplan-Meier estimator and the log-rank test were used to calculate and compare the stratified rates of FOPD. The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analyses (MVA). Primary disease death from a non-oncologic pulmonary cause was censored in model 1 and was excluded in model 2. RESULTS A total of 1172 patients with 1315 tumors were enrolled. During a median follow-up period of 24.5 months, oncologic pulmonary deaths accounted for 101 of 221 primary disease deaths. The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year FOPD rates in model 1 were 98.2%, 89.4% and 84.0%, respectively. MVA for FOPD revealed that local failure of the irradiated tumor, squamous cell carcinoma pathology, and chemotherapy after SBRT had significant relationships with lower FOPD rates in both model 1 and model 2. CONCLUSIONS Successful local control of pulmonary oligometastases by SBRT contributed to a higher FOPD rate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Liver and lung are common sites of metastases from colorectal cancer (CRC). Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) represents a valid treatment, with high rates of local control (LC). In this study, we applied recursive partitioning model-based analysis (RPA) to define class risks for overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) in oligometastatic CRC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this monocentric analysis, we included patients with lung or liver metastases. Patients were candidate to SBRT if a maximum of 5 metastases. End points of the present analysis were LC, PFS, and OS. The binary classification tree approach with RPA was applied to stratify the patients into risk groups based on OS and PFS. RESULTS 218 patients were treated with SBRT on 371 metastases. Majority of patients (56%) was treated on single lesion, followed by 2 (26.1%) and 3 lesions (14.7%). Median follow-up was 22.7 months. Rates of LC were 84.2% at 1 year and 73.8% at 3 years. Rates of PFS at 1 and 3 years were 42.2% and 14.9%, respectively. RPA identified 3 classes for PFS, according to age and number of metastases with 3-year PFS of 30.6%, 13.5% and 8.4%. Overall survival was 87.2% at 1 year, 51.9% at 3 years, and 36.8% at 5 years. RPA identified 3 nodes. Class 1 included patients with liver metastases (3-year OS 35.2%). Class 2 included patients with lung metastases and DFI ≤ 48 months (3-year OS 65%). Class 3 included patients with lung metastases and DFI > 48 months (3-year OS 73.5%). CONCLUSIONS Stereotactic body radiation therapy can be considered an effective treatment for the management of liver and lung metastases from CRC. With RPA, we identified prognostic risk class to define patients who could benefit the most from SBRT.

Abstract
Oligometastatic disease has been proposed as an intermediate state between localised and systemically metastasised disease. In the absence of randomised phase 3 trials, early clinical studies show improved survival when radical local therapy is added to standard systemic therapy for oligometastatic disease. However, since no biomarker for the identification of patients with true oligometastatic disease is clinically available, the diagnosis of oligometastatic disease is based solely on imaging findings. A small number of metastases on imaging could represent different clinical scenarios, which are associated with different prognoses and might require different treatment strategies. 20 international experts including 19 members of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer OligoCare project developed a comprehensive system for characterisation and classification of oligometastatic disease. We first did a systematic review of the literature to identify inclusion and exclusion criteria of prospective interventional oligometastatic disease clinical trials. Next, we used a Delphi consensus process to select a total of 17 oligometastatic disease characterisation factors that should be assessed in all patients treated with radical local therapy for oligometastatic disease, both within and outside of clinical trials. Using a second round of the Delphi method, we established a decision tree for oligometastatic disease classification together with a nomenclature. We agreed oligometastatic disease as the overall umbrella term. A history of polymetastatic disease before diagnosis of oligometastatic disease was used as the criterion to differentiate between induced oligometastatic disease (previous history of polymetastatic disease) and genuine oligometastatic disease (no history of polymetastatic disease). We further subclassified genuine oligometastatic disease into repeat oligometastatic disease (previous history of oligometastatic disease) and de-novo oligometastatic disease (first time diagnosis of oligometastatic disease). In de-novo oligometastatic disease, we differentiated between synchronous and metachronous oligometastatic disease. We did a final subclassification into oligorecurrence, oligoprogression, and oligopersistence, considering whether oligometastatic disease is diagnosed during a treatment-free interval or during active systemic therapy and whether or not an oligometastatic lesion is progressing on current imaging. This oligometastatic disease classification and nomenclature needs to be prospectively evaluated by the OligoCare study.

Abstract
Background There is growing evidence to support the hypothesis that radical treatment of pulmonary oligometastatic disease with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) can improve oncological outcomes. However, some reports suggest colorectal cancer (CRC) pulmonary metastases are associated with radioresistance. The present systematic review aimed to assess the local control (LC), overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with CRC pulmonary metastases treated by SBRT. Secondary outcomes included assessment of peri-procedural complications and identification of prognostic factors on LC. Methods Electronic databases were systematically searched from their dates of inception using predefined criteria. Summative statistical analysis was performed for patients with CRC pulmonary metastases, and comparative meta-analysis was performed for patients with CRC versus non-CRC pulmonary metastases. Results Using predefined criteria, 18 relevant studies were identified from the existing literature. LC for CRC pulmonary metastases treated by SBRT at 1-, 2-, and 3-year were estimated to be 81%, 66%, and 60%, respectively. OS and PFS at 3-year were 52% and 13%, respectively. Patients with CRC pulmonary metastases were associated with significantly lower LC compared to non-CRC pulmonary metastases [HR, 2.93; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.93-4.45; P<0.00001], but higher OS (HR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.45-0.82; P=0.001). There were no reported periprocedural mortalities and low incidences of periprocedural morbidities. Conclusions These findings may have implications for patient and treatment selection, dose fractionation, and support the hypothesis that CRC pulmonary metastases may require higher biological effective doses while respecting normal tissue constraints when treated with SBRT.

Abstract
Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is associated with a limited survival when treated with palliative intent platinum-based chemotherapy alone. Recent advances in imaging and therapeutic strategy have identified a subset of patients with limited metastases who may benefit from early local ablative therapy with either surgery or radiotherapy, in addition to standard treatment. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is increasingly used in the treatment of extra-cranial oligometastatic NSCLC (OM-NSCLC) due its non-invasive conduct and ability to deliver high doses. Clinical evidence supporting the use of SBRT in OM-NSCLC is emerging and consistently demonstrates significant benefit in local control and progression-free survival. Here, we discuss the definition of oligometastases (OM), review current available data on SBRT treatment in extra-cranial OM-NSCLC including evidence for site-specific SBRT in lung, liver, and adrenal metastases.

Abstract
PURPOSE The study aimed to evaluate overall survival and local control, and to identify factors independently associated with overall survival (OS) and local control (LC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study examined 118 patients with primary colorectal cancer, in whom 202 inoperable pulmonary oligometastases were treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy between 2005 and 2015. Primary endpoint was to evaluate OS and identify prognostic factors associated with OS. Secondary aim was to evaluate LC and identify prognostic factors associated with LC. RESULTS Median follow-up was 31 months (range 3-88 months). Median OS was 39.2 months (95% CI 34.8-43.6 months). Two-, three-, and five-year OS was 69%, 55% and 36%, respectively. LC at 2-, 3-, and 5-year was 83%, 81% and 77% respectively. Factors independently associated with OS in the multivariable analysis included BED10 ≥ 100 Gy (HR 0.52), male gender (HR 0.52), age < 70 years (HR 0.52) and presence of single metastasis (HR 0.37). BED10 < 100 Gy (HR 3.67) and pre-SBRT chemotherapy (HR 2.66) were independently associated with poor LC in a multivariable analysis. CONCLUSIONS SBRT was associated with 2- year OS of 69% and 2-year LC of 83%. SBRT dose ≥ 100 Gy BED10 was independently associated with both better overall survival and local control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The concept of oligometastatic disease (OMD) has expanded the scope of potentially curative therapy for metastatic NSCLC. However, large uncertainties remain regarding its definition and optimal management strategies. We therefore conducted a systematic review to investigate the value of various multimodality treatment concepts. METHODS We searched the available literature in Pubmed, Medline and EMBASE using the terms "oligomet*", "synchron*", "oligorec*", "metachr*" "NSCLC", "lung cancer" and "stage IV" and included studies reporting treatment regimens and outcomes on radically treated patients with either "synchronous", "metachronous" or "mixed" OMD. Only de-novo diagnosis of OMD was considered. The impact of patient and treatment characteristics on overall survival (OS) and time trends in patterns of care were investigated. RESULTS 54 studies published between 1987 and 2018 were included. Despite a wide range of OMD definitions, 90.1% of patients were treated for a single metastasis. Systemic therapy was used as backbone treatment for most patients. Although surgery was the preferred local treatment in earlier studies, the use of stereotactic radiotherapy increased rapidly after 2011. No OS difference was observed between surgery or radiotherapy as the treatment of primary tumor or metastases, respectively. A time trend towards improved OS after 2011 could be detected. CONCLUSIONS While evidence in favor of radical treatment is emerging, most studies remain retrospective and mainly evaluate patients with singular metastases. While surgery, stereotactic radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the cornerstones of current treatment strategies, future clinical trials need to address the high risk of distant metastases by integrating targeted or immunotherapy.

Abstract
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is an emerging treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma. This technique results in excellent local control rates with favorable toxicity profile despite being predominantly used in heavily pretreated patients or those unsuitable for other local therapies. SBRT may be used as a sole treatment or in combination with other local therapies as well as a bridging strategy for patient awaiting liver transplants. This brief review describes current practice of SBRT with respect to radiation technique, patient selection and treatment concepts. It summarizes available evidence from retro- and prospective studies evaluating SBRT alone, SBRT in combination with other treatments and SBRT compared to other local treatment approaches.

The impact of local control on overall survival after stereotactic body radiotherapy for liver and lung metastases from colorectal cancer: a combined analysis of 388 patients with 500 metastases. BMC Cancer 2019; 19:173.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this analysis was to model the effect of local control (LC) on overall survival (OS) in patients treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for liver or lung metastases from colorectal cancer. METHODS The analysis is based on pooled data from two retrospective SBRT databases for pulmonary and hepatic metastases from 27 centers from Germany and Switzerland. Only patients with metastases from colorectal cancer were considered to avoid histology as a confounding factor. An illness-death model was employed to model the relationship between LC and OS. RESULTS Three hundred eighty-eight patients with 500 metastatic lesions (lung n = 209, liver n = 291) were included and analyzed. Median follow-up time for local recurrence assessment was 12.1 months. Ninety-nine patients with 112 lesions experienced local failure. Seventy-one of these patients died after local failure. Median survival time was 27.9 months in all patients and 25.4 months versus 30.6 months in patients with and without local failure after SBRT. The baseline risk of death after local failure exceeds the baseline risk of death without local failure at 10 months indicating better survival with LC. CONCLUSION In CRC patients with lung or liver metastases, our findings suggest improved long-term OS by achieving metastatic disease control using SBRT in patients with a projected OS estimate of > 12 months.

The METABANK score: A clinical tool to predict survival after stereotactic radiotherapy for oligometastatic disease. Radiother Oncol 2019; 133:113-119. [PMID: 30935566 DOI: 10.1016/j.radonc.2019.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2018] [Revised: 12/30/2018] [Accepted: 01/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT, SBRT) is widely used in oligometastatic cancer, but the heterogeneity of the population complicates estimation of the prognosis. We investigated the role of different clinical and inflammatory parameters. MATERIALS AND METHODS We included all patients treated with SRT for 1-5 oligometastases between 2003 and 2017 in our center. Patients were randomized between a model training set (2/3) and a separate validation set (1/3). A Cox regression model was built, validated and risk points were attributed to the resulting parameters. RESULTS 403 patients received SRT for 760 metastases. Treated sites were mainly lung, liver, nodal areas, and brain. Most common primaries were colorectal and lung cancer. Median follow-up for living patients reached 42 months and median overall survival (MS) was 26.6 months (95% CI 23.8-29.3). Five independent adverse factors were discriminated: male sex, synchronous timing of oligometastases, brain metastasis, non-adenocarcinoma histology, KPS <80. A risk score is formed by summation of the points of each factor (M:4, T:2, B:7, N:7, K:8). Four risk groups were defined: (1) 0-2 points: MS 41.2 months (95% CI 30.2-52.3); (2) 3-8 points: 29.3 months (24.6-34.0); (3) 9-13 points: 17.4 months (10.1-24.7), and (4) 14-28 points: 7.9 months (5.5-10.3). CONCLUSION We propose a prognostic score applicable in a variety of primary tumors and disease locations, including presence of brain metastases. The nomogram and risk groups can be used to stratify patients in new trials and to support individualized care for oligometastatic patients. An online calculator will become available at predictcancer.org.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the integrative value of clinical, hematological, and computed tomography (CT) radiomic features in survival prediction for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) patients. METHODS Radiomic features and clinical and hematological features of 118 LA-NSCLC cases were firstly extracted and analyzed in this study. Then, stable and prognostic radiomic features were automatically selected using the consensus clustering method with either Cox proportional hazard (CPH) model or random survival forest (RSF) analysis. Predictive radiomic, clinical, and hematological parameters were subsequently fitted into a final prognostic model using both the CPH model and the RSF model. A multimodality nomogram was then established from the fitting model and was cross-validated. Finally, calibration curves were generated with the predicted versus actual survival status. RESULTS Radiomic features selected by clustering combined with CPH were found to be more predictive, with a C-index of 0.699 in comparison to 0.648 by clustering combined with RSF. Based on multivariate CPH model, our integrative nomogram achieved a C-index of 0.792 and retained 0.743 in the cross-validation analysis, outperforming radiomic, clinical, or hematological model alone. The calibration curve showed agreement between predicted and actual values for the 1-year and 2-year survival prediction. Interestingly, the selected important radiomic features were significantly correlated with levels of platelet, platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR) (p values all < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The integrative nomogram incorporated CT radiomic, clinical, and hematological features improved survival prediction in LA-NSCLC patients, which would offer a feasible and practical reference for individualized management of these patients. KEY POINTS • An integrative nomogram incorporated CT radiomic, clinical, and hematological features was constructed and cross-validated to predict prognosis of LA-NSCLC patients. • The integrative nomogram outperformed radiomic, clinical, or hematological model alone. • This nomogram has value to permit non-invasive, comprehensive, and dynamical evaluation of the phenotypes of LA-NSCLC and can provide a feasible and practical reference for individualized management of LA-NSCLC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for pulmonary oligometastatic disease achieves excellent treatment outcomes in terms of local control and toxicity. Patients treated with SBRT are often elderly and have multiple co-morbidities. This subset of patients may experience different survival as compared to young and fit patients subjected to radical metastasectomies. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate OS and identify factors associated with OS for inoperable pulmonary oligometastases treated with SBRT. MATERIAL AND METHODS Criteria used for selection of patients with oligometastases included: metastases limited to ≤2 organs and in total ≤5 metastases at the time of treatment. Peripheral tumors were treated with 51 Gy to 60 Gy in three fractions or a single fraction of 30 Gy. Central tumors received a dose of 45-60 Gy in 5-8 fractions. Survival probabilities were estimated by means of Kaplan-Meier method and the relation between potential prognostic factors and OS was studied by means of Cox regression analyses. RESULTS In this study, 327 inoperable pulmonary oligometastases in 206 patients were treated with SBRT from the year 2005 to 2015. Primary sites of pulmonary oligometastases included colorectal carcinoma (n = 118), lung carcinoma (n = 36), melanoma (n = 11), sarcoma (n = 10), breast carcinoma (n = 7), and other tumors sites (n = 24). Median follow-up was 26 months. Median survival was 33 months. The 2-year and 5-year OS rates were 63% and 30%, respectively. On univariate analysis synchronous oligometastases (HR 0.59) and colorectal primary (HR 0.64) were associated with improved OS. On multivariable analysis synchronous oligometastases (HR 0.56), colorectal primary (HR 0.62) and tumor size <3 cm (HR 0.68) were independently associated with OS. CONCLUSIONS SBRT to pulmonary oligometastases was associated with a 2-year OS of 63%. Tumor size <3 cm and colorectal primary tumors experienced improved OS compared to tumors >3 cm and non-colorectal primary tumors.

Abstract
Background We compared the treatment outcomes of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and metastasectomy in patients with pulmonary metastases. Methods Twenty‐one patients received SBRT (total radiation doses 60 Gy in 3 fractions or 48 Gy in 4 fractions) and 30 underwent metastasectomy, most (93.3%) with wedge resection. The patients were followed for a median of 13.7 months. The tumor size in the SBRT group was larger than in the metastasectomy group (median 2.5 vs. 1.25 cm; P = 0.015). Patients with synchronous metastases were more likely to be treated with SBRT than with metastasectomy (P = 0.006). Results There was no significant difference in the local control rates of the treatment groups (P = 0.163). Progression‐free survival (PFS) was longer in the metastasectomy than in the SBRT group (P = 0.02), with one and two‐year PFS rates of 51.1% and 46% versus 23.8% and 11.9%, respectively. The one and two‐year overall survival (OS) rates were 95% and 81.8% in the metastasectomy group and 79.5% and 68.2%, in the SBRT group, respectively. In multivariate analysis, synchronous metastasis was related to poor PFS, and tumor size was the most significant factor affecting OS. There were no significant differences in PFS and OS between treatment groups after dividing patients according to the presence or absence of synchronous metastases. Conclusions SBRT is considered a suitable local modality against pulmonary metastases; however, patients with synchronous metastases are only likely to obtain a small benefit from local treatment with either SBRT or surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate prognostic factors in patients with lung metastases who undergo lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 87 patients with 129 lung metastases who underwent SBRT between November 2004 and May 2012 were enrolled in this retrospective study. The patient collective consisted of 54 men (62.1%) and 33 women (37.9%); the median age was 65 years (range 36-88). The Karnofsky performance index was ≥70% (median 90%) for all cases, but one (60%). Adverse effects were categorized using the CTCAE 4.0 classification system. Retrospective analyses regarding patients' characteristics, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), disease-specific survival (DSS), and local tumor control rates (LTC) were performed. RESULTS On univariate and multivariate analysis OS, DSS, and PFS were significantly (p < 0.05) better for patients with ≤3 lung metastases; no extrathoracic metastases at the time of the SBRT; a gross tumor volume (GTV) <7.7 cm3 and patients that received a staging that included positron emission tomography with fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) imaging. Furthermore, a longer OS was observed if newly diagnosed metastases during follow-up were limited to the lung (median survival: 43.7 months versus 21.7 months; p = 0.023). CONCLUSION The number and pattern of metastases, and the size of the target volume are strong predictors for the outcome of patients receiving SBRT of lung tumors. FDG-PET/CT should be part of pretherapeutic staging before SBRT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To report our experience with SBRT in primary and secondary liver tumors. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 55 patients (70 lesions) with a median follow-up of 10 months (range 1-57) treated from 2011 to 2016. All patients had not been eligible for other local treatment options. Median age was 64 years and 64% were male. 27 patients (36 lesions) suffered from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, Child A:78%, Child B:18%, Child C:4%), 28 patients (34 lesions) had oligometastatic liver disease (MD). Treatment planning was based on 4D-CT usually after placement of fiducials. Dose and fractionation varied depending on localization and size, most commonly 3 × 12.5 Gy (prescribed to the surrounding 65%-isodose) in 56% and 5x8Gy (80% isodose) in 20% of the treated lesions. RESULTS Local recurrence was observed in 7 patients (13%) and 8 lesions (11%), resulting in estimated 1- and 2-year local control rates (LC) of 91 and 74%. Estimated 1- and 2-year rates of Freedom from hepatic failure (FFHF) were 42 and 28%. Number of lesions was predictive for LC and FFHF in the entire cohort. Estimated 1- and 2-year overall survival (OS) was 76 and 57%. OS was significantly affected by number of treated lesions and performance status. In the HCC subgroup, pretreatment liver function and gender were also predictive for OS. Maximum acute non-hepatic toxicity was grade 1 in 16% and grade 2 in 10% of the patients. Three HCC patients (11%) developed marked deterioration of liver function (grade 3/4). CONCLUSIONS SBRT resulted in high local control and acceptable survival rates in patients with HCC or MD not amendable to other locally-ablative treatment options with limited toxicity.

Clinical Results of Mean GTV Dose Optimized Robotic-Guided Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Lung Tumors. Front Oncol 2018; 8:171. [PMID: 29868486 PMCID: PMC5966546 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2018.00171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2018] [Accepted: 05/01/2018] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of gross tumor volume (GTV) mean dose optimized stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for primary and secondary lung tumors with and without robotic real-time motion compensation. Materials and methods Between 2011 and 2017, 208 patients were treated with SBRT for 111 primary lung tumors and 163 lung metastases with a median GTV of 8.2 cc (0.3–174.0 cc). Monte Carlo dose optimization was performed prioritizing GTV mean dose at the potential cost of planning target volume (PTV) coverage reduction while adhering to safe normal tissue constraints. The median GTV mean biological effective dose (BED)10 was 162.0 Gy10 (34.2–253.6 Gy10) and the prescribed PTV BED10 ranged 23.6–151.2 Gy10 (median, 100.8 Gy10). Motion compensation was realized through direct tracking (44.9%), fiducial tracking (4.4%), and internal target volume (ITV) concepts with small (≤5 mm, 33.2%) or large (>5 mm, 17.5%) motion. The local control (LC), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity were analyzed. Results Median follow-up was 14.5 months (1–72 months). The 2-year actuarial LC, PFS, and OS rates were 93.1, 43.2, and 62.4%, and the median PFS and OS were 18.0 and 39.8 months, respectively. In univariate analysis, prior local irradiation (hazard ratio (HR) 0.18, confidence interval (CI) 0.05–0.63, p = 0.01), GTV/PTV (HR 1.01–1.02, CI 1.01–1.04, p < 0.02), and PTV prescription, mean GTV, and maximum plan BED10 (HR 0.97–0.99, CI 0.96–0.99, p < 0.01) were predictive for LC while the tracking method was not (p = 0.97). For PFS and OS, multivariate analysis showed Karnofsky Index (p < 0.01) and tumor stage (p ≤ 0.02) to be significant factors for outcome prediction. Late radiation pneumonitis or chronic rip fractures grade 1–2 were observed in 5.3% of the patients. Grade ≥3 side effects did not occur. Conclusion Robotic SBRT is a safe and effective treatment for lung tumors. Reducing the PTV prescription and keeping high GTV mean doses allowed the reduction of toxicity while maintaining high local tumor control. The use of real-time motion compensation is strongly advised, however, well-performed ITV motion compensation may be used alternatively when direct tracking is not feasible.

Abstract
Purpose Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is increasingly used in the management of patients with oligometastatic cancers and is under prospective evaluation by the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG). Here we report outcomes from a high-volume institution of patients treated with SBRT for pulmonary oligometastases. Materials and methods We conducted a retrospective review of 105 patients who had one to five pulmonary oligometastases (185 lesions) without extrapulmonary disease treated with SBRT from 2002-2014. Target failure-free survival (TFFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were calculated. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed on factors predictive of outcomes. Results The median age at first SBRT was 68 years and the median follow-up was 29.5 months. The median time from initial diagnosis of primary to SBRT was 42.7 months; 14.3% had synchronous oligometastases and 76.7% had one to two pulmonary lesions at first SBRT. The distribution of primaries was as follows: 36.2% colorectal, 16.2% head/neck, 9.5% genitourinary, 9.5% sarcoma, 7.6% gynecologic, 6.7% other, 5.7% breast, 5% melanoma, and 4% esophageal. The median lesion size was 1.6 cm and the most common regimen was 60 Gy in three fractions (range: 12-60 Gy in one to five fractions). TFFS was 94.4% and 90.8% at two and three years, respectively. Two and three year OS were 87.9% and 60.2%, respectively. Median PFS and OS were 16.2 and 45.3 months, respectively. In multivariate analysis, age at primary cancer diagnosis and biologically effective dose with an alpha-beta ratio of 10 (BED10) were identified as factors significantly affecting OS (p<0.05). Conclusions Comprehensive treatment of pulmonary oligometastases with SBRT in the absence of extrapulmonary disease results in excellent target control and modest survival outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE We retrospectively evaluated the patterns of failure for robotic guided real-time breathing-motion-compensated (BMC) stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the treatment of tumors in moving organs. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2011 and 2016, a total of 198 patients with 280 lung, liver, and abdominal tumors were treated with BMC-SBRT. The median gross tumor volume (GTV) was 12.3 cc (0.1-372.0 cc). Medians of mean GTV BEDα/β =10 Gy (BED = biological effective dose) was 148.5 Gy10 (31.5-233.3 Gy10) and prescribed planning target volume (PTV) BEDα/β =10 Gy was 89.7 Gy10 (28.8-151.2 Gy10), respectively. We analyzed overall survival (OS) and local control (LC) based on various factors, including BEDs with α/β ratios of 15 Gy (lung metastases), 21 Gy (primary lung tumors), and 27 Gy (liver metastases). RESULTS Median follow-up was 10.4 months (2.0-59.0 months). The 2‑year actuarial LC was 100 and 86.4% for primary early and advanced stage lung tumors, respectively, 100% for lung metastases, 82.2% for liver metastases, and 90% for extrapulmonary extrahepatic metastases. The 2‑year OS rate was 47.9% for all patients. In uni- and multivariate analysis, comparatively lower PTV prescription dose (equivalence of 3 × 12-13 Gy) and higher average GTV dose (equivalence of 3 × 18 Gy) to current practice were significantly associated with LC. For OS, Karnofsky performance score (100%), gender (female), and SBRT without simultaneous chemotherapy were significant prognostic factors. Grade 3 side effects were rare (0.5%). CONCLUSIONS Robotic guided BMC-SBRT can be considered a safe and effective treatment for solid tumors in moving organs. To reach sufficient local control rates, high average GTV doses are necessary. Further prospective studies are warranted to evaluate these points.
