Title: Stereotactic body radiation therapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases

Abstract

Methods: The study included 115 patients with CRC liver metastases. The vast majority of patients had a long-term history of the disease: 73 had 1-4 liver resections (41 – hemihepatectomy); the median number of chemotherapy regimens was 3. In 19 patients, SBRT was performed in combination with simultaneous chemotherapy or chemo-targeted therapy. A total of 182 metastases with a median size of 18 mm and a mean of 23 mm were treated with SBRT. Total doses were: 30-45 Gy for 85 (“low dose” cohort), 51-60 Gy for 97 (“high dose” cohort). All patients were treated in 3 fractions, and almost all – over 3-8 days.

Results: Only one patient had an acute radiation reaction, which led to an increase in the duration of the SBRT course to 24 days. Of the late adverse events, 3 cases of gastric ulcer development were recorded, 2 – of subcutaneous fat fibrosis, 1 – of intercostal neuralgia, hydrothorax, rib fracture and vertebral corpus fracture; 2 cases of development of acute esophagitis, 1 – gastritis and 1 – cholecystitis were also noted, stopped by medication. Median overall survival (OS) after SBRT was 41,1 months (24,8-57,4); in group with now metastases except those exposed to radiation – 54 months (35,4-73,5) with no “active” – 31,1, with “active” – 20,9 (15,6-26,2). Median of the local control score wasn’t reached in all groups but it was significantly better in “high dose” than “low” (p=0.0001) and in the 45Gy-group than 30-36Gy (p=0.0001). In the “low dose” group, LC was significantly higher for those metastases that were subjected to SBRT at the time of being controlled by antitumor treatment (N=19) compared with those who did not respond to previous treatment or if their treatment was started with SBRT (N=66) (p = 0.033) (such results contradict the conclusions of a number of retrospective studies but seem logical).
