ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for pulmonary metastases. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
Between April 2007 and March 2011, 87 patients underwent SBRT for pulmonary metastases using the in-house Air-Bag System(TM) to obtain the four-dimensional image for treatment planning and to reduce intrafractional intrathoracic organ motion with abdominal compression to reduce the risk of radiation pneumonitis. Survival and respiratory adverse events were analyzed.RESULTS:
The 2- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates were 47 and 32 %, and the corresponding cause-specific survivals were 52 and 36 %. The 2- and 3-year OS rates were 57 and 49 % for patients in group 1, respectively, while the corresponding OS rates were 48 and 21 %, and 40 and 32 % for patients in groups 2 and 3, respectively. The 2- and 3-year local control (LC) rates were 80 and 80 %, respectively. The corresponding intrathoracic progression-free survival rates were 40 and 32 %, respectively. Concerning adverse respiratory events after SBRT for pulmonary metastases, 14 % were grade 0 (G0), 66 % G1, 13 % G2, 6 % G3, and 1 % G4. Concerning the adverse respiratory events (NCI-CTC) by grade scale, 1- and 2-year cumulative probabilities of radiation pneumonitis were 12 and 20 % for G2 and 4 and 10 % for G3/4, respectively. The mean values for cumulative V20 were 11.6 ± 8.5 %, 29.8 ± 18.6 %, and 25.7 ± 12.8 % in G0/1, G2, and G3/4, respectively. The number of pulmonary metastases that could be safely treated with SBRT was 6 PTVs (or seven gross tumor volumes) within a cumulative V20 of 30 % under the restricted intrafractional respiratory tumor motion using the Air-Bag System(TM).CONCLUSION:
We propose that the number of pulmonary metastases that can be safely treated with SBRT is 6 PTVs with a cumulative V20 of 30 % under the restricted respiratory tumor motion using the Air-Bag System(TM). SBRT for pulmonary metastases offers locally effective treatment for recurrent or residual lesions after first line chemotherapy.
