ABSTRACT
Background:
The favorable role of SBRT for lymph-nodal oligometastases from prostate cancer has been reported by several retrospective and prospective experiences, suggesting a more indolent natural history of disease when compared to patients with bone oligometastases. This retrospective multicenter study evaluates the outcomes of a cohort of patients treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy for lymph-nodal oligometastases.Methods:
Inclusion criteria were up to five lymph-nodal oligometastases detected either with Choline-PET or PSMA-PET in patients naïve for ADT or already ongoing with systemic therapy and at least 6 Gy per fraction for SBRT. Only patients with exclusive lymph-nodal disease were included. The primary endpoint of the study was LC; a toxicity assessment was retrospectively performed following CTCAE v4.0.Results:
A total of 100 lymph-nodal oligometastases in 69 patients have been treated with SBRT between April 2015 and November 2022. The median age was 73 years (range, 60-85). Oligometastatic disease was mainly detected with Choline-PET in 47 cases, while the remaining were diagnosed using PSMA-PET, with most of the patients treated to a single lymph-nodal metastasis (48/69 cases), two in 14 cases, and three in the remaining cases. The median PSA prior to SBRT was 1.35 ng/mL (range, 0.3-23.7 ng/mL). Patients received SBRT with a median total dose of 35 Gy (range, 30-40 Gy) in a median number of 5 (range, 3-6) fractions. With a median follow-up of 16 months (range, 7-59 months), our LC rates were 95.8% and 86.3% at 1 and 2 years. DPFS rates were 90.4% and 53.4%, respectively, at 1 and 2 years, with nine patients developing a sequential oligometastatic disease treated with a second course of SBRT. Polymetastatic disease-free survival (PMFS) at 1 and 2 years was 98% and 96%. Six patients needed ADT after SBRT for a median time of ADT-free survival of 15 months (range, 6-22 months). The median OS was 16 months (range, 7-59) with 1- and 2-year rates of both 98%. In multivariate analysis, higher LC rates and the use of PSMA-PET were related to improved DPFS rates, and OS was significantly related to a lower incidence of distant progression. No G3 or higher adverse events were reported.Conclusions:
In our experience, lymph-nodal SBRT for oligometastatic prostate cancer is a safe and effective option for ADT delay with no severe toxicity.Palavras-chave
