Abstract

Purpose: The standard treatment for oligometastatic colorectal cancer includes systemic therapy, with surgery and metastasis-directed therapy as options. The optimal strategy, especially for repeat oligoprogression (rOP), remains unclear. We report outcomes of liver computer tomography-guided high-dose rate brachytherapy (CT-BRT) in this setting.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included colorectal cancer patients with liver-only oligoprogression during systemic therapy, meeting criteria of up to 5 liver metastases, CT-BRT eligibility, and ECOG status ≤ 2. Patients were followed for local response, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity. Response, according to RECIST 1.1, was initiated 6 months post-CT-BRT.

Results: A total of 262 metastases were treated in 127 patients, with 67.7% receiving third-line or later systemic therapies. One to four liver metastases were found in 29.1%, 42.5%, 21.2%, and 7.1% of patients, respectively, with a median volume of 128 cm3. A median of 3 applicators was used, with CT-BRT doses of 15 Gy, 20 Gy, and 25 Gy given to 29.9%, 41.7%, and 28.3% of patients. At 6 months complete response occurred in 3.1%, progressive disease in 23.6%, partial response in 19.7%, and stable disease in 53.5%. Median PFS was 9 months, median OS was 16 months, with 1-year and 2-year OS rates of 65% and 16%, respectively. Liver-only metastases and objective response were associated with longer PFS. The G3 toxicity was 4.0%; no events > G3 were reported.

Conclusions: This largest study documents favorable outcomes of liver CT-BRT for rOP, establishing this method as a viable option in this indication.

期刊介绍: Felice Perussia founded La radiologia medica in 1914. It is a peer-reviewed journal and serves as the official journal of the Italian Society of Medical and Interventional Radiology (SIRM). The primary purpose of the journal is to disseminate information related to Radiology, especially advancements in diagnostic imaging and related disciplines. La radiologia medica welcomes original research on both fundamental and clinical aspects of modern radiology, with a particular focus on diagnostic and interventional imaging techniques. It also covers topics such as radiotherapy, nuclear medicine, radiobiology, health physics, and artificial intelligence in the context of clinical implications. The journal includes various types of contributions such as original articles, review articles, editorials, short reports, and letters to the editor. With an esteemed Editorial Board and a selection of insightful reports, the journal is an indispensable resource for radiologists and professionals in related fields. Ultimately, La radiologia medica aims to serve as a platform for international collaboration and knowledge sharing within the radiological community.
