RESUMO

Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) genes, an early step in the ontogeny of lower-grade gliomas, induce global epigenetic changes characterized by a hypermethylation phenotype and are critical to tumor classification, treatment decision making, and estimation of patient prognosis. The introduction of IDH inhibitors to block the oncogenic neomorphic function of the mutated protein has resulted in new therapeutic options for these patients. To appreciate the implications of these recent IDH inhibitor results, it is important to juxtapose historical outcomes with chemoradiotherapy. Herein, we rationally evaluate recent IDH inhibitor data within historical precedents to guide contemporary decisions regarding the role of observation, maximal safe resection, adjuvant therapies, and the import of patient and tumor variables. The biological underpinnings of the IDH pathway and the mechanisms, impact, and limitations of IDH inhibitors, the actual magnitude of tumor regression and patient benefit, and emergence of resistance pathways are presented to guide future trial development. Management in the current, molecularly defined era will require careful patient selection and risk factor assessment, followed by an open dialog about the results of studies such as INDIGO, as well as mature data from legacy trials, and a discussion about risk-versus-benefit for the choice of treatment, with multidisciplinary decision making as an absolute prerequisite.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: This study compares four management paradigms for large brain metastasis (LMB): fractionated SRS (FSRS), staged SRS (SSRS), resection and postoperative-FSRS (postop-FSRS) or preoperative-SRS (preop-SRS). METHODS: Patients with LBM (≥ 2 cm) between July 2017 and January 2022 at a single tertiary institution were evaluated. Primary endpoints were local failure (LF), radiation necrosis (RN), leptomeningeal disease (LMD), a composite of these variables, and distant intracranial failure (DIF). Gray's test compared cumulative incidence, treating death as a competing risk with a random survival forests (RSF) machine-learning model also used to evaluate the data. RESULTS: 183 patients were treated to 234 LBMs: 31.6% for postop-FSRS, 28.2% for SSRS, 20.1% for FSRS, and 20.1% for preop-SRS. The overall 1-year composite endpoint rates were comparable (21 vs 20%) between nonoperative and operative strategies, but 1-year RN rate was 8 vs 4% (p = 0.012), 1-year overall survival (OS) was 48 vs. 69% (p = 0.001), and 1-year LMD rate was 5 vs 10% (p = 0.052). There were differences in the 1-year RN rates (7% FSRS, 3% postop-FSRS, 5% preop-SRS, 10% SSRS, p = 0.037). With RSF analysis, the out-of-bag error rate for the composite endpoint was 47%, with identified top-risk factors including widespread extracranial disease, > 5 total lesions, and breast cancer histology. CONCLUSION: This is the first study to conduct a head-to-head retrospective comparison of four SRS methods, addressing the lack of randomized data in LBM literature amongst treatment paradigms. Despite patient characteristic trends, no significant differences were found in LF, composite endpoint, and DIF rates between non-operative and operative approaches.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have efficacy in several solid tumors but limited efficacy in glioblastoma (GBM). This study evaluated the safety of anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 ICIs alone or in combination in newly diagnosed GBM after completion of standard radiochemotherapy with the subsequent intent to test combinatorial ICIs in this setting. METHODS: The primary endpoint was dose limiting toxicity (DLT) for adults with unifocal, supratentorial newly diagnosed GBM after resection and chemoradiation. Ipilimumab and nivolumab were tested separately and in combination with a planned expansion cohort dependent upon DLT results. RESULTS: Thirty-two patients were enrolled at 9 institutions; 6 to each DLT assessment cohort and 14 to the expansion cohort. Median age: 55 years, 67.7% male, 83.9% white. Treatment was well tolerated with a 16% Grade 4 events; the combination did not have unexpectedly increased toxicity, with no Grade 5 events. One DLT was seen in each single-agent treatment; none were observed in the combination, leading to expanded accrual of the combined treatment. Median follow-up was 19.6 mo. For all patients receiving combination treatment, median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 20.7 mo. and 16.1 mo., respectively. CONCLUSIONS: IPI and NIVO are safe and tolerable with toxicities similar to those noted with other cancers when given in combination with adjuvant TMZ for newly diagnosed GBM. Combination IPI+NIVO is not substantially more toxic than single agents. These results support a subsequent efficacy trial to test the combination of ICIs in a phase II/III for patients with newly diagnosed GBM.

RESUMO

Introduction: The ability to dynamically adjust target contours, derived Boolean structures, and ultimately, the optimized fluence is the end goal of online adaptive radiotherapy (ART). The purpose of this work is to describe the necessary tests to perform after a software patch installation and/or upgrade for an established online ART program. Methods: A patch upgrade on a low-field MR Linac system was evaluated for post-software upgrade quality assurance (QA) with current infrastructure of ART workflow on (1) the treatment planning system (TPS) during the initial planning stage and (2) the treatment delivery system (TDS), which is a TPS integrated into the delivery console for online ART planning. Online ART QA procedures recommended for post-software upgrade include: (1) user interface (UI) configuration; (2) TPS beam model consistency; (3) segmentation consistency; (4) dose calculation consistency; (5) optimizer robustness consistency; (6) CT density table consistency; and (7) end-to-end absolute ART dose and predicted dose measured including interruption testing. Differences of calculated doses were evaluated through DVH and/or 3D gamma comparisons. The measured dose was assessed using an MR-compatible A26 ionization chamber in a motion phantom. Segmentation differences were assessed through absolute volume and visual inspection. Results: (1) No UI configuration discrepancies were observed. (2) Dose differences on TPS pre-/post-software upgrade were within 1% for DVH metrics. (3) Differences in segmentation when observed were small in general, with the largest change noted for small-volume regions of interest (ROIs) due to partial volume impact. (4) Agreement between TPS and TDS calculated doses was 99.9% using a 2%/2-mm gamma criteria. (5) Comparison between TPS and online ART plans for a given patient plan showed agreement within 2% for targets and 0.6 cc for organs at risk. (6) Relative electron densities demonstrated comparable agreement between TPS and TDS. (7) ART absolute and predicted measured end-to-end doses were within 1% of calculated TDS. Discussion: An online ART QA program for post-software upgrade has been developed and implemented on an MR Linac system. Testing mechanics and their respective baselines may vary across institutions, but all necessary components for a post-software upgrade QA have been outlined and detailed. These outlined tests were demonstrated feasible for a low-field MR Linac system; however, the scope of this work may be applied and adapted more broadly to other online ART platforms.

RESUMO

DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms are critical to maintenance of overall genomic stability, and their dysfunction can contribute to oncogenesis. Significant advances in our understanding of DDR pathways have raised the possibility of developing therapies that exploit these processes. In this expert-driven consensus review, we examine mechanisms of response to DNA damage, progress in development of DDR inhibitors in IDH-wild-type glioblastoma and IDH-mutant gliomas, and other important considerations such as biomarker development, preclinical models, combination therapies, mechanisms of resistance and clinical trial design considerations.

RESUMO

H3K27-altered diffuse midline glioma (DMG H3K27-altered) is a relatively newly-designated WHO entity which primarily affects the midline structures of the central nervous system (CNS), including the brainstem (predominantly pontine region), thalamus, midbrain, or spinal cord, and primarily affects children and young adults. Despite the proximity of these tumors to eloquent areas in the CNS, novel stereotactic approaches have facilitated the ability to obtain tissue diagnoses without significant morbidity, providing molecular diagnostic information in more than half of patients. Conventionally fractionated radiation therapy to a total dose of 54-60 Gy in 27-30 fractions and 24 Gy in 12 fractions play a crucial role in the definitive treatment of these tumors in the primary and salvage settings, respectively. Hypofractionated regimens may allow for accelerated treatment courses in selected patients without jeopardizing disease control or survival. The decision to add concurrent or adjuvant systemic therapy mainly relies on the physicians' experience without solid evidence in the literature in favor of any particular regimen. Recently, novel agents, such as ONC201 have demonstrated promising oncologic outcomes in progressive/recurrent tumors and are currently under investigation in ongoing randomized trials. Given the scarcity of data and well-established guidelines due to the rare nature of the disease, we provide a contemporary overview on the molecular underpinnings of this disease entity, describe the role of radiotherapy and systemic therapy, and present practice management principles based on the published literature.

RESUMO

Intracranial tumors include a challenging array of primary and secondary parenchymal and extra-axial tumors which cause neurologic morbidity consequential to location, disease extent, and proximity to critical neurologic structures. Radiotherapy can be used in the definitive, adjuvant, or salvage setting either with curative or palliative intent. Proton therapy (PT) is a promising advance due to dosimetric advantages compared to conventional photon radiotherapy with regards to normal tissue sparing, as well as distinct physical properties, which yield radiobiologic benefits. In this review, the principles of efficacy and safety of PT for a variety of intracranial tumors are discussed, drawing upon case series, retrospective and prospective cohort studies, and randomized clinical trials. This manuscript explores the potential advantages of PT, including reduced acute and late treatment-related side effects and improved quality of life. The objective is to provide a comprehensive review of the current evidence and clinical outcomes of PT. Given the lack of consensus and directives for its utilization in patients with intracranial tumors, we aim to provide a guide for its judicious use in clinical practice.

RESUMO

Single-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) or fractionated SRS (FSRS) are well established strategies for patients with limited brain metastases. A broad spectrum of modern dedicated platforms are currently available for delivering intracranial SRS/FSRS; however, SRS/FSRS delivered using traditional CT-based platforms relies on the need for diagnostic MR images to be coregistered to planning CT scans for target volume delineation. Additionally, the on-board image guidance on traditional platforms yields limited inter-fraction and intra-fraction real-time visualization of the tumor at the time of treatment delivery. MR Linacs are capable of obtaining treatment planning MR and on-table MR sequences to enable visualization of the targets and organs-at-risk and may subsequently help identify anatomical changes prior to treatment that may invoke the need for on table treatment adaptation. Recently, an MR-guided intracranial package (MRIdian A3i BrainTxTM) was released for intracranial treatment with the ability to perform high-resolution MR sequences using a dedicated brain coil and cranial immobilization system. The objective of this report is to provide, through the experience of our first patient treated, a comprehensive overview of the clinical application of our institutional program for FSRS adaptive delivery using MRIdian's A3i BrainTx system-highlights include reviewing the imaging sequence selection, workflow demonstration, and details in its delivery feasibility in clinical practice, and dosimetric outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27-altered (H3 K27M-altered DMG) are invariably lethal, disproportionately affecting the young and without effective treatment besides radiotherapy. The 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) Central Nervous System (CNS) Tumors Classification defined H3 K27M mutations as pathognomonic but restricted diagnosis to diffuse gliomas involving midline structures by 2018. Dordaviprone (ONC201) is an oral investigational small molecule, DRD2 antagonist, and ClpP agonist associated with durable responses in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant DMG. Activity of ONC201 in non-midline H3 K27M-mutant diffuse gliomas has not been reported. METHODS: Patients with recurrent non-midline H3 K27M-mutant diffuse gliomas treated with ONC201 were enrolled in 5 trials. Eligibility included measurable disease by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) high-grade glioma, Karnofsky/Lansky performance score ≥60, and ≥90 days from radiation. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). RESULTS: Five patients with cerebral gliomas (3 frontal, 1 temporal, and 1 parietal) met inclusion. One complete and one partial response were reported by investigators. Blinded independent central review confirmed ORR by RANO criteria for 2, however, 1 deemed nonmeasurable and another stable. A responding patient also noted improved mobility and alertness. CONCLUSIONS: H3 K27M-mutant diffuse gliomas occasionally occur in non-midline cerebrum. ONC201 exhibits activity in H3 K27M-mutant gliomas irrespective of CNS location.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Histone 3 (H3) K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma (DMG) has a dismal prognosis with no established effective therapy beyond radiation. This integrated analysis evaluated single-agent ONC201 (dordaviprone), a first-in-class imipridone, in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant DMG. METHODS: Fifty patients (pediatric, n = 4; adult, n = 46) with recurrent H3 K27M-mutant DMG who received oral ONC201 monotherapy in four clinical trials or one expanded access protocol were included. Eligible patients had measurable disease by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) high-grade glioma (HGG) criteria and performance score (PS) ≥60 and were ≥90 days from radiation; pontine and spinal tumors were ineligible. The primary end point was overall response rate (ORR) by RANO-HGG criteria. Secondary end points included duration of response (DOR), time to response (TTR), corticosteroid response, PS response, and ORR by RANO low-grade glioma (LGG) criteria. Radiographic end points were assessed by dual-reader, blinded independent central review. RESULTS: The ORR (RANO-HGG) was 20.0% (95% CI, 10.0 to 33.7). The median TTR was 8.3 months (range, 1.9-15.9); the median DOR was 11.2 months (95% CI, 3.8 to not reached). The ORR by combined RANO-HGG/LGG criteria was 30.0% (95% CI, 17.9 to 44.6). A ≥50% corticosteroid dose reduction occurred in 7 of 15 evaluable patients (46.7% [95% CI, 21.3 to 73.4]); PS improvement occurred in 6 of 34 evaluable patients (20.6% [95% CI, 8.7 to 37.9]). Grade 3 treatment-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TR-TEAEs) occurred in 20.0% of patients; the most common was fatigue (n = 5; 10%); no grade 4 TR-TEAEs, deaths, or discontinuations occurred. CONCLUSION: ONC201 monotherapy was well tolerated and exhibited durable and clinically meaningful efficacy in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant DMG.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: EuroQoL EQ-5D-5L is a commonly used measure of health-related quality of life in clinical trials given the use of its index score as a measure of health utilities. It is unclear whether EQ-5D-5L is sensitive to changes in neurocognitive function and progression that occur following brain radiation. This study sought to evaluate the sensitivity of EQ-5D-5L in reflecting these changes. METHODS: A secondary analysis of NRG Oncology CC001 was performed. Mean EQ-5D-5L index and visual analog scale (VAS) score changes from baseline between groups of patients stratified by neurocognitive function and intracranial progression status were assessed. MD Anderson Symptom Inventory for brain tumor (MDASI-BT) symptom and interference items were also analyzed between groups. RESULTS: EQ-5D-5L mean index and VAS score changes between patients who had cognitive failure and those who had preserved cognition showed no statistically significant differences at any timepoint. In contrast, VAS changes at 4 months (1.61 vs -5.13, P = .05) and 6 months (8.17 vs -0.14, P = .04) were significantly improved in the patients who survived without intracranial progression. MDASI-BT cognitive factor scores were improved in the cohort of patients with preserved neurocognitive function at 2 months (1.68 vs 2.08, P = .05) and 4 months (1.35 vs 1.83, P = .04). MDASI-BT symptom interference was significantly associated with intracranial progression at 4 months, but not with neurocognitive status. CONCLUSION: EQ-5D-5L index and VAS scores were not sensitive to neurocognitive changes that patients experienced, but VAS scores were sensitive to progression. This study challenges the routine use of EQ-5D as a quality of life metric in brain metastases clinical trials that are focused on preventing neurocognitive dysfunction. TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT# 02360215.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Early palliative/pre-emptive intervention improves clinical outcomes and quality of life for patients with metastatic cancer. A previous signal-seeking randomized controlled trial (RCT) demonstrated that early upfront radiotherapy to asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic high-risk osseous metastases led to reduction in skeletal-related events (SREs), a benefit driven primarily by subgroup of high-risk spine metastasis. The current RCT aims to determine whether early palliative/pre-emptive radiotherapy in patients with high-risk, asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic spine metastases will lead to fewer SREs within 1 year. METHODS: This is a single-center, parallel-arm, in-progress RCT in adults (≥ 18 years) with ECOG performance status 0-2 and asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic (not requiring opioids) high-risk spine metastases from histologically confirmed solid tumor malignancies with > 5 sites of metastatic disease on cross-sectional imaging. High-risk spine metastases are defined by the following: (a) bulkiest disease sites ≥ 2 cm; (b) junctional disease (occiput to C2, C7-T1, T12-L2, L5-S1); (c) posterior element involvement; or (d) vertebral body compression deformity > 50%. Patients are randomized 1:1 to receive either standard-of-care systemic therapy (arm 1) or upfront, early radiotherapy to ≤ 5 high-risk spine lesions plus standard-of-care systemic therapy (arm 2), in the form of 20-30 Gy of radiation in 2-10 fractions. The primary endpoint is SRE, a composite outcome including spinal fracture, spinal cord compression, need for palliative radiotherapy, interventional procedures, or spinal surgery. Secondary endpoints include (1) surrogates of health care cost, including the number and duration of SRE-related hospitalizations; (2) overall survival; (3) pain-free survival; and (4) quality of life. Study instruments will be captured pre-treatment, at baseline, during treatment, and at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months post-treatment. The trial aims to accrue 74 patients over 2 years to achieve > 80% power in detecting difference using two-sample proportion test with alpha < 0.05. DISCUSSION: The results of this RCT will demonstrate the value, if any, of early radiotherapy for high-risk spine metastases. The trial has received IRB approval, funding, and prospective registration (NCT05534321) and has been open to accrual since August 19, 2022. If positive, the trial will expand the scope and utility of spine radiotherapy. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.Gov NCT05534321 . Registered September 9, 2022. TRIAL STATUS: Version 2.0 of the protocol (2021-KOT-002), revised last on September 2, 2022, was approved by the WCG institutional review board (Study Number 1337188, IRB tracking number 20223735). The trial was first posted on ClinicalTrials.Gov on September 9, 2022 (NCT05534321). Patient enrollment commenced on August 19, 2022, and is expected to be completed in 2 years, likely by August 2024.

RESUMO

Radiotherapy for ultracentral lung tumors represents a treatment challenge, considering the high rates of high-grade treatment-related toxicities with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) or hypofractionated schedules. Accelerated hypofractionated magnetic resonance-guided adaptive radiation therapy (MRgART) emerged as a potential game-changer for tumors in these challenging locations, in close proximity to central organs at risk, such as the trachea, proximal bronchial tree, and esophagus. In this series, 13 consecutive patients, predominantly male (n = 9), with a median age of 71 (range (R): 46-85), underwent 195 MRgART fractions (all 60 Gy in 15 fractions) to metastatic (n = 12) or primary ultra-central lung tumors (n = 1). The median gross tumor volumes (GTVs) and planning target volumes (PTVs) were 20.72 cc (R: 0.54-121.65 cc) and 61.53 cc (R: 3.87-211.81 cc), respectively. The median beam-on time per fraction was 14 min. Adapted treatment plans were generated for all fractions, and indications included GTV/PTV undercoverage, OARs exceeding tolerance doses, or both indications in 46%, 18%, and 36% of fractions, respectively. Eight patients received concurrent systemic therapies, including immunotherapy (four), chemotherapy (two), and targeted therapy (two). The crude in-field loco-regional control rate was 92.3%. No CTCAE grade 3+ toxicities were observed. Our results offer promising insights, suggesting that MRgART has the potential to mitigate toxicities, enhance treatment precision, and improve overall patient care in the context of ultracentral lung tumors.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Lapatinib plus whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) or stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) was hypothesized to improve the 12-week intracranial complete response (CR) rate compared with either option of radiation therapy (RT) alone for patients with brain metastases (BM) from human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS: This study included patients with HER2+ breast cancer with ≥1 measurable, unirradiated BM. Patients were randomized to WBRT (37.5 Gy/3 wk)/SRS (size-based dosing) ± concurrent lapatinib (1000 mg daily for 6 weeks). Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR), lesion-specific response, central nervous system progression-free survival, and overall survival. RESULTS: From July 2012 to September 2019, 143 patients were randomized, with 116 analyzable for the primary endpoint. RT + lapatinib did not improve 12-week CR (0% vs 6% for RT alone, 1-sided P = .97), or ORR at 12 weeks. At 4 weeks, RT + lapatinib showed higher ORR (55% vs 42%). Higher graded prognostic assessment and ≤10 lesions were associated with higher 12-week ORR. Grade 3 and 4 adverse event rates were 8% and 0% for RT and 28% and 6% for RT + lapatinib. CONCLUSIONS: The addition of 6 weeks of concomitant lapatinib to WBRT/SRS did not improve the primary endpoint of 12-week CR rate or 12-week ORR. Adding lapatinib to WBRT/SRS showed improvement of 4-week ORR, suggesting a short-term benefit from concomitant therapy.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This is the first reporting of the MRIdian A3iTM intracranial package (BrainTxTM) and benchmarks the end-to-end localization and dosimetric accuracy for commissioning an magnetic resonace (MR)-guided stereotactic radiosurgery program. We characterized the localization accuracy between MR and radiation (RT) isocenter through an end-to-end hidden target test, relative dose profile intercomparison, and absolute dose validation. METHODS AND MATERIALS: BrainTx consists of a dedicated head coil, integrated mask immobilization system, and high-resolution MR sequences. Coil and baseplate attenuation was quantified. An in-house phantom (Cranial phantOm foR magNetic rEsonance Localization of a stereotactIc radiosUrgery doSimeter, CORNELIUS) was developed from a mannequin head filled with silicone gel, film, and MR BB with pinprick. A hidden target test evaluated MR-RT localization of the 1×1×1 mm3 TrueFISP MR and relative dose accuracy in film for a 1 cm diameter (International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)-X/IEC-Y) and 1.5 cm diameter (IEC-Y/IEC-Z) spherical target. Two clinical cases (irregular-shaped target and target abutting brainstem) were mapped to the CORNELIUS phantom for feasibility assessment. A 2-dimensional (2D)-gamma compared calculated and measured dose for spherical and clinical targets with 1 mm/1% and 2 mm/2% criteria, respectively. A small-field chamber (A26MR) measured end-to-end absolute dose for a 1 cm diameter target. RESULTS: Coil and baseplate attenuation were 0.7% and 2.7%, respectively. The displacement of MR to RT localization as defined through the pinprick was 0.49 mm (IEC-X), 0.27 mm (IEC-Y), and 0.51 mm (IEC-Z) (root mean square 0.76 mm). The reproducibility across IEC-Y demonstrated high fidelity (<0.02 mm). Gamma pass rates were 97.1% and 95.4% for 1 cm and 1.5 cm targets, respectively. Dose profiles for an irregular-shaped target and abutting organ-at-risk-target demonstrated pass rates of 99.0% and 92.9%, respectively. The absolute end-to-end dose difference was <1%. CONCLUSIONS: All localization and dosimetric evaluation demonstrated submillimeter accuracy, per the TG-142, TG-101, MPPG 9.a. criteria for SRS/SRT systems, indicating acceptable delivery capabilities with a 1 mm setup margin.
