ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study aimed to analyze the prognostic factors associated with overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with bone-only metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) who have five or fewer lesions treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).METHODS:
The clinical data of 54 patients with 70 bone metastases undergoing SBRT treated between 2013 and 2020 with a dose of at least 5â¯Gy per fraction and a biologically effective dose (BED) of at least 90â¯Gy were retrospectively evaluated.RESULTS:
The majority of lesions were located in the spine (57.4%) and had only one metastasis (64.8%). After a median follow-up of 22.4 months, the 1 and 2year OS rates were 84.6% and 67.3%, respectively, and median OS was 43.1 months. The 1 and 2year PFS rates and median PFS were 63.0%, 38.9%, and 15.3 months, respectively. In SBRT-treated lesions, the 1year local control (LC) rate was 94.9%. Age, metastasis localization, and number of fractions of SBRT were significant prognostic factors for OS in univariate analysis. In multivariate analysis, patients with spinal metastasis had better OS compared to their counterparts, and patients who received single-fraction SBRT had better PFS than those who did not. No patient experienced acute or late toxicities of grade 3 or greater.CONCLUSION:
Despite excellent LC at the oligometastatic site treated with SBRT, disease progression was observed in nearly half of patients 13 months after metastasis-directed local therapy, particularly as distant disease progression other than the treated lesion, necessitating an effective systemic treatment to improve treatment outcomes.Key words
