ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Compared with computed tomography, magnetic resonance (MR) image guidance offers significant advantages for radiation therapy (RT) that may be particularly beneficial for reirradiation (reRT). However, clinical outcomes of MR-guided reRT are not well described in the published literature. METHODS AND MATERIALS We performed a single-institution retrospective safety and efficacy analysis of reRT patients treated on the MRIdian Linac to targets within the abdomen or pelvis using continuous intrafraction MR-based motion management with automatic beam triggering. Fiducial markers were not used.RESULTS:
We evaluated 11 patients who received prior RT to a median of 50 Gy (range, 30-58.8 Gy) in 25 fractions (range, 5-28 fractions). The median interval to reRT was 26.8 months. The most frequently retreated sites were nodal metastases (36.4%) and pancreatic cancer (27.3%). The median reRT dose was 40 Gy (range, 25-54 Gy) in 6 fractions (range, 5-36 fractions); ultrahypofractionation (63.6%) was more common than hyperfractionation (36.4%). Daily on-table adaptive replanning was used for 3 patients (27.3%). With a median of 14 months' follow-up from reRT completion (range, 6-32 months), the median and 1-year freedom from local progression were 29 months and 88.9%, respectively, and the median and 1-year overall survival were 17.5 months and 70.0%, respectively. One patient (9.1%) experienced acute grade 2 toxic effects; there were no acute or late treatment-related toxic effects of grade 3 or greater.CONCLUSIONS:
Magnetic resonance-guided reRT appeared to be feasible and may facilitate safe dose escalation. Additional follow-up is needed to better assess long-term efficacy and late toxic effects. Prospective evaluation of this novel treatment strategy is warranted.
