Acute toxicity in patients with oligometastatic cancer following metastasis-directed stereotactic body radiotherapy: An interim analysis of the E2-RADIatE OligoCare cohort.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To evaluate acute toxicity at 6 months after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with oligometastatic cancer within the OligoCare cohort. MATERIAL AND METHODS: OligoCare is a prospective, registry-based, single-arm, observational study that aims to report prospective real-world data of patients with oligometastases from solid cancer treated with SBRT (NCT03818503). Primary tumor included non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), breast cancer (BC), colorectal cancer (CRC), and prostate cancer (PC). This analysis addresses a secondary endpoint of the trial, acute toxicity within 6 months after SBRT. RESULTS: Out of 1,597registered patients, 1'468 patients were evaluated for acute toxicity. Globally, 290 (20 %) had NSCLC primary disease, 227 (16 %) had BC, 293 (20 %) had CRC, and 658 (45 %) had PC. Concomitant systemic treatment was administered in 527 (35.9 %) patients. According to the EORTC/ESTRO oligometastatic disease (OMD) classification, 828 (56 %) patients had de novo OMD, 464 (32 %) repeat OMD, and 176 (12 %) induced OMD. Acute grade ≥ 3 SBRT related adverse events were reported in 8 (0.5 %) patients, including 2 (0.1 %) fatal AEs. In particular, 6 (0.4 %) grade 3 events were 1 empyema, 1 pneumonia, 1 radiation pneumonitis, 1 radiation skin injury, 1 decreased appetite, and 1 bone pain. Among those 2 occurred in NSCLC patients, 2 in BC patients, and 1 in CRC and PC patients each. The two (0.1 %) grade 5 toxicity were represented by pneumonitis and cerebral hemorrhage. CONCLUSION: OligoCare is the largest prospective registry cohort on oligometastatic disease. Acute toxicity within 6 months was low, confirming the safety of SBRT in the treatment of oligometastases.
