Abstract
Osseous metastases to the spine result in significant pain and decreased quality of life. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for the treatment of spinal metastases regarding pain reduction and local control of disease progression. In this single center retrospective study, patients with osseous metastases to the spine undergoing MWA with vertebroplasty from 2013 to 2020 were included. Locoregional control of metabolic activity at the treated level was assessed using PET/CT scan both pre- and post-procedure. Pain reduction was measured using change in visual analog scale (VAS) pain score. Forty-eight spinal levels were treated with MWA in 28 patients (57 % male, mean age 68 ± 9 years). Median ablation time, energy, and temperature were 4 min and 13 s, 3.6 kJ, and 80 °C, respectively. Median pre-procedure maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) was significantly reduced following ablation, from 4.55 (IQR 3.65-6.1) to 0 (IQR 0-1.8; p < 0.001), over an average of 29 ± 14.1 month follow up period. Pre-procedure VAS pain score was reduced from median (IQR) of 8 (6.5-9) to 1(1-2), 2(1-3) and 1(0.5-3) at 24 h, four weeks, and six months post-procedure, respectively (all p < 0.001 with respect to pre-procedure scores). In conclusion, this study supports microwave ablation as an effective technique for pain palliation and long-term locoregional tumor control of oligometastatic spinal disease as assessed by metabolic response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone metastases and skeletal-related events (SREs) are a frequent cause of morbidity in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC). Data are limited on bone metastases and SREs in patients with mNSCLC treated using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and on the efficacy of bone-modifying agents (BMAs) in this setting. Here we report the incidence, impact on survival, risk factors for bone metastases and SREs, and impact of BMAs in patients with mNSCLC treated with ICIs in a multi-institutional cohort. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients with mNSCLC treated with ICIs at 2 tertiary care centers from 2014 through 2017. Overall survival (OS) was compared between patients with and without baseline bone metastases using a log-rank test. A Cox regression model was used to evaluate the association between OS and the presence of bone metastases at ICI initiation, controlling for other confounding factors. RESULTS We identified a cohort of 330 patients who had received ICIs for metastatic disease. Median patient age was 63 years, most patients were treated in the second line or beyond (n=259; 78%), and nivolumab was the most common ICI (n=211; 64%). Median OS was 10 months (95% CI, 8.4-12.0). In our cohort, 124 patients (38%) had baseline bone metastases, and 43 (13%) developed SREs during or after ICI treatment. Patients with bone metastases had a higher hazard of death after controlling for performance status, histology, line of therapy, and disease burden (hazard ratio, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.19-2.08; P=.001). Use of BMAs was not associated with OS or a decreased risk of SREs. CONCLUSIONS Presence of bone metastases at baseline was associated with a worse prognosis for patients with mNSCLC treated with ICI after controlling for multiple clinical characteristics. Use of BMAs was not associated with reduced SREs or a difference in survival.

Abstract
Purpose: We evaluated the imaging and clinical features for discriminating the possibility of metastasis among FDG-avid bone lesions in 18F-FDG PET/CT in patients who have received bone biopsy. Methods: The retrospective study included patients who underwent both 18F-FDG PET/CT and bone biopsy for FDG-avid bone lesions. Bone lesions maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), CT findings, alongside with common clinical features were analyzed. Results: From the 338 patients enrolled in the final study, all of them were received bone biopsy. Biopsies confirm metastasis in 256 cases (75.74%) and benign tissue in 82 cases (24.26%). Metastasis group had higher bone SUVmax than benign group (median 7.9 vs 4.5, p <0.001). A cutoff bone SUVmax of 5 achieved an AUC of 0.748 in all patients. Lytic CT feature and higher age were more likely frequent in metastasis group. Moreover, in patients without obvious CT abnormality (45, 13.31%), the AUC was 0.743 by a SUVmax cutoff of 5.38, whilst in patients with a solitary bone lesion (74, 21.89%), the AUC was 0.803 by a SUVmax cutoff of 4.3. Conclusions: SUVmax is a promising and valuable metabolic indicator for predicting risk of metastasis among FDG-avid bone lesions in 18F-FDG PET/CT, ancillary clinical and imaging features may increase the probability of a metastatic bone lesion.
