Abstract
Background: Re-irradiation for recurrent gliomas is a controversial treatment option with no clear standard dose or concurrent systemic therapy.
Methods: This series represents a single-institution retrospective review of patients treated with re-irradiation for recurrent high-grade glioma. After 2012, patients were commonly offered concurrent bevacizumab as a cytoprotective agent against radiation necrosis. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate overall survival and progression-free survival. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to identify factors associated with overall survival and progression-free survival.
Results: Between 2001 and 2021, 52 patients underwent re-irradiation for a diagnosis of recurrent high-grade glioma. 36 patients (69.2%) had a histologic diagnosis of glioblastoma at the time of re-irradiation. The median BED10 (biological equivalent dose 10 Gy) of re-irradiation was 53.1 Gy. Twenty-one patients (40.4%) received concurrent bevacizumab with re-irradiation. Median survival for the entire cohort and for glioblastoma at the time of recurrence patients was 6.7 months and 6.0 months, respectively. For patients with glioblastoma at the time of recurrence, completing re-irradiation (HR 0.03, P < .001), use of concurrent bevacizumab (HR 0.3, P = .009), and the BED10 (HR 0.9, P = .005) were predictive of overall survival. Nine patients developed grade 3-5 toxicity; of these, 2 received concurrent bevacizumab and 7 did not (P = .15).
Conclusion: High dose re-irradiation with concurrent bevacizumab is feasible in patients with recurrent gliomas. Concurrent bevacizumab and increasing radiation dose may improve survival in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.
期刊介绍：
Neuro-Oncology Practice focuses on the clinical aspects of the subspecialty for practicing clinicians and healthcare specialists from a variety of disciplines including physicians, nurses, physical/occupational therapists, neuropsychologists, and palliative care specialists, who have focused their careers on clinical patient care and who want to apply the latest treatment advances to their practice. These include: Applying new trial results to improve standards of patient care Translating scientific advances such as tumor molecular profiling and advanced imaging into clinical treatment decision making and personalized brain tumor therapies Raising awareness of basic, translational and clinical research in areas of symptom management, survivorship, neurocognitive function, end of life issues and caregiving
