Abstract
In recent years, the development of both medical imaging and new systemic agents (targeted therapy and immunotherapy) have revolutionized the field of oncology, leading to a new entity: oligometastatic disease. Adding local treatment of oligometastases to systemic treatment could lead to prolonged survival with no significant impact on quality of life. Given the high prevalence of lung oligometastases and the new systemic agents coming with increased pulmonary toxicity, this article provides a comprehensive review of the current state-of-art for radiotherapy of lung oligometastases. After reviewing pretreatment workup, the authors define several radiotherapy regimen based on the localization and size of the oligometastases. A comment on the synergistic combination of medical treatment and radiotherapy is also made, projecting on future steps in this specific clinical setting.

Abstract
Pulmonary metastasectomy is an established treatment that can provide improved long- term survival for patients with metastatic tumor(s) in the lung. In this mini-review, we discuss the state of the art of thoracic surgery in surgical management of lung metastases which actually occurs for a large part of surgical activity in thoracic surgery department. We describe the principles of surgical therapy that have been defined across the time, and that should remain the milestones of lung metastases treatment: a radical surgery and an adequate lymphadenectomy. We then focus on current surgical indications and report the oncological results according to the surgical approach (open vs. mini-invasive), the histological type and number of lung metastases, and in case of re-metastasectomy. Finally, we conclude with a brief overview about the future perspectives in thoracic surgery in treatment of lung metastases.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma can have lung metastasis even after a long interval of radical nephrectomy (16 years after nephrectomy in our case). If any pulmonary nodule is diagnosed with a history of RCC, pulmonary metastasis of RCC should be suspected and should be appropriately treated.

Abstract
Simple Summary This multicentric paper aimed at evaluating the role of pulmonary metastasectomy in patients affected by metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The impact of pulmonary metastasectomy was analysed with respect to long-term survival and disease-free survival in a wide population of patients affected by pulmonary metastases from renal cell carcinoma. The prognostic value of factors affecting survival, disease-free interval and disease-free survival was evaluated. Our results aid clinicians in identifying those patients affected by pulmonary metastases from renal cell carcinoma who are more likely to benefit from pulmonary metastasectomy. Abstract In this paper we aimed to address the role of pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) in patients affected by Lung Metastases (LM) from Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) and to analyse prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS), disease-free interval (DFI) between primary RCC and first LM, and disease-free survival (DFS) after PM and before lung recurrence. Medical records of 210 patients who underwent PM from RCC in 4 Italian Thoracic Centres, from January 2000 to September 2019, were collected and analysed. All patients underwent RCC resection before lung surgery. The main RCC histology was clear cells (188, 89.5%). The 5- and 10-year OS from the first lung operation were 60% and 34%, respectively. LM synchronous with RCC (p = 0.01) and (Karnofsky Performance Status Scale) KPSS < 80% (p < 0.001) negatively influenced OS. Five- and 10-year DFI were 54% and 28%, respectively. The main factors negatively influencing DFI were: male gender (p = 0.039), KPSS < 80% (p = 0.009) and lactate dehydrogenase > 1.5 times 140 U/L (p = 0.001). Five- and 10-year disease-free survival were 54% and 28%, respectively; multiple LM (p = 0.036), KPSS < 80% (p = 0.001) and histology of RCC other than clear cells negatively influenced disease-free survival. Conclusions: patients with KPSS > 80%, single metachronous LM with a long DFI from RCC diagnosis, and clear cell histology, benefit from pulmonary metastasectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite weak evidence, pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) is widely performed with intent to improve patient survival. Our single-institution analysis aims to evaluate outcomes and to identify factors influencing survival of patients undergoing PM for metastases from wide range of primary tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS All patients undergoing curative-intent PM between 2008 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The impact of factors related to primary tumor, metastases, and associated therapy on overall survival (OS) was evaluated using univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazard models. Cutoff values of continuous variables were determined by a receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS In this study, 281 patients (178 male, median age 61 years) underwent PM. Two (0.7%) perioperative deaths and 23 (8.2%) major complications occurred. Median interval between the treatment of primary tumor and PM was 21 months. Median size of largest metastasis was 1.4 cm. After the median follow-up of 29 months, 134 patients (47.7%) had died. Five-year OS rate after first PM was 47.1%. Complete resection was achieved in 274 (97.5%) patients. Multivariable analysis identified genitourinary origin (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.30, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.15-0.60, p = 0.0008) as independent positive survival prognosticator; incomplete resection (HR: 3.53, 95% CI: 1.40-8.91, p = 0.0077) and age at PM of ≥66 years (HR: 1.97, 95% CI: 1.36-2.85, p = 0.0003) were negative prognosticators. CONCLUSION The use of PM as a part of multimodal treatment is in selected population justified. Our analysis identified age, primary tumor origin, and completeness of resection as independent survival prognosticators.

Abstract
Pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) is an established treatment that can provide improved long-term survival for patients with metastatic tumor(s) in the lung. In the current era, where treatment options other than PM such as stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), immunotherapy, and molecular-targeted therapy are available, thoracic surgeons should review the approach to the preoperative evaluation and the indications. Preoperative evaluation consists of history and physical examinations, physiological tests, and radiological examinations. Radiological examinations serve to identify the differential diagnosis of the pulmonary nodules, evaluate their precise number, location, and features, and search for extra thoracic metastases. The indication of PM should be considered from both physiological and oncological points of view. The general criteria for PM are as follows; (I) the patient has a good general condition, (II) the primary malignancy is controlled, (III) there is no other extrapulmonary metastases, and (IV) the pulmonary lesion(s) are thought to be completely resectable. In addition to the general eligibility criteria of PM, prognostic factors of each tumor type should be considered when deciding the indication for PM. When patients have multiple poor prognostic factors and/or a short disease-free interval (DFI), thoracic surgeons should not hesitate to observe the patient for a certain period before deciding on the indication for PM. A multidisciplinary discussion is needed in order to decide the indication for PM.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains a public health issue and seems to be increasing. A significant proportion of RCC patients will develop pulmonary metastasis at some point in their evolution. In this review, we aimed to update the surgical management of pulmonary metastases as well as systemic therapy, including targeted therapies, according to recent data in the literature. We retrospectively reviewed studies evaluating the benefit of pulmonary metastasectomy in RCC patients and evaluating the place of different chemotherapies, targeted therapies and immunotherapies through November 1, 2019. Several retrospective studies have shown the benefit of pulmonary metastasectomy in metastatic RCC (mRCC), most in a situation with only pulmonary metastases. According to the prognostic criteria of the IMDC risk model, the patient is classified into a prognostic group to identify the best systemic treatment. With the development of targeted therapies, the modalities are multiple and may involve tyrosine kinase inhibitors/checkpoint inhibitors and soon vaccine therapy or CAR-T cells. At the local level, in patients who cannot benefit from surgery, stereotactic radiotherapy or radiofrequency has a place to be considered. Although there is a lack of a randomized study, pulmonary metastasectomy appears to be feasible and effective. The place and modalities of systemic therapies in the era of targeted therapies remain to be more clearly defined.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The role of metastasectomy in the management of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) remains controversial. The aim of this review is to summarize and evaluate the recent findings about the surgical treatment of patients with mRCC focusing on the literature published in the last 2 years. RECENT FINDINGS Despite the lack of randomized controlled trials, the benefit of metastasectomy in term of cancer-specific and overall survival have been demonstrated in large observational studies. Results of ongoing clinical trials evaluating the impact of combination of surgical and systemic therapies are eagerly awaited and may shed the light on a new treatment armamentarium in this subset of patients. SUMMARY Several novel systemic agents have emerged and is continuously changing the treatment paradigm in patients with advanced RCC. However, surgical resection of the primary tumor and metastatic deposits represents a definitive cure option in well selected patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been the mainstay first-line therapy for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). We reviewed the efficacy of first-line therapy with sunitinib in patients with mRCC in an Arab population. METHODS Medical records of patients with mRCC treated at a tertiary care center in Saudi Arabia, during the period from 2007 to 2016, were reviewed. Demographic data, treatment received, response, and prognostic factors were analyzed. RESULTS Fifty-five patients who received sunitinib were identified. The median age was 60 years (range, 18 to 78 years), and 42 of the 55 patients were men (76.3%). International Metastatic RCC Diagnostic Consortium prognostic scores for favorable/intermediate/poor were 14.5%/43.6%/38.2%, respectively. The median performance status was 1, and the median Charlson comorbidity index score was 9. Thirty-seven patients (67.2%) had cytoreductive nephrectomy. Thirty-seven patients (67.2%) had clear cell histology. Twenty-two patients (40%) underwent dose reduction. Twenty-seven patients (49%) received second-line therapy, and seven patients (12.7%) received third-line therapy. Response rates were complete response in one patient (1.8%), partial response in 17 (30.9%), stable disease in 10 (18.1), and disease progression in 20 (36.3%). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.0 and 24.7 months, respectively. Univariate analysis showed statistically improved PFS for dose reduction (P = .015) and the development of hypothyroidism (P = .03). It also showed statistically improved OS for dose reduction (P = .035), hypothyroidism (P = .0002), and cytoreductive nephrectomy (P = .0052). Multivariate analysis showed statistically improved PFS for dose reduction (P = .01) and OS for development of hypothyroidism (P = .007). CONCLUSION Our data for sunitinib in mRCC show significantly lower PFS than expected. The absence of prognostic value of the International Metastatic RCC Diagnostic Consortium scoring system and pathologic subtype warrant further investigation and possible inclusion of genetic scoring in this ethnic group of patients.

[PMID: 31341985 PMCID: PMC6630187 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctro.2019.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2019] [Revised: 04/17/2019] [Accepted: 04/17/2019] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has traditionally been regarded as radioresistant tumor based on preclinical data and negative clinical trials using conventional fractionated radiotherapy. However, there is emerging evidence that radiotherapy delivered in few fractions with high single-fraction and total doses may overcome RCC s radioresistance. Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) has been successfully used in the treatment of intra- and extracranial RCC metastases showing high local control rates accompanied by low toxicity. Although surgery is standard of care for non-metastasized RCC, a significant number of patients is medically inoperable or refuse surgery. Alternative local approaches such as radiofrequency ablation or cryoablation are invasive and often restricted to small RCC, so that there is a need for alternative local therapies such as stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). Recently, both retrospective and prospective trials demonstrated that SBRT is an attractive treatment alternative for localized RCC. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the published data regarding SBRT for primary RCC. The radiobiological rationale to use higher radiation doses in few fractions is discussed, and technical aspects enabling the safe delivery of SBRT despite intra- and inter-fraction motion and the proximity to organs at risk are outlined.

[PMID: 31017089 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2018.08.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2018] [Revised: 08/02/2018] [Accepted: 08/31/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT The benefit of surgical metastasectomy (SM) for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) remains controversial because of the lack of high-level evidence on the role of SM in terms of survival benefit in the era of systemic therapy. OBJECTIVE To perform a systematic review of the literature on the role of SM in the treatment of mRCC and discuss key issues in the SM decision-making process. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A systematic search of the Embase and Medline databases was carried out and a systematic review of the role of SM in mRCC was performed. A total of 56 studies were finally included in the evidence synthesis. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS All the studies included were retrospective and mostly noncomparative. Median overall survival (OS) ranged from 36 to 142mo for those undergoing SM, compared to 8-27mo for no SM. SM was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality compared to no SM (pooled adjusted hazard ratio 2.37, 95% confidence interval 2.03-2.87; p<0.001). Morbidity and mortality were similar for SM and primary tumor surgery. The most important prognostic factor for OS was complete resection of metastases. Other prognostic factors included disease free-survival from nephrectomy, primary tumor features (T stage ≥3, high grade, sarcomatoid features, and pathological nodal status), the number of metastases, and performance status. Lung metastasectomy seemed to show the best survival benefit. CONCLUSIONS Although no randomized clinical data are available, published studies support the role of SM in selected patients in the modern era. Complete SM allows sustained survival free of systemic treatment. Integration of SM and systemic therapy in a multimodal approach remains a valid option for some patients. PATIENT SUMMARY Surgical resection of metastases originating from renal cell carcinoma may play a role in prolonging survival and avoiding systemic therapy when complete resection is achievable. This strategy is an option for selected patients with a limited number of metastases who still have good general health status.
