Prognostic Significance of Immune Cell Infiltration in Muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer Treated with Definitive Chemoradiation: A Secondary Analysis of RTOG 0524 and RTOG 0712. Eur Urol Oncol 2024:S2588-9311(24)00095-6. [PMID: 38641541 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2024.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/21/2024]
Abstract
Chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is a treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Using a novel transcriptomic profiling panel, we validated prognostic immune biomarkers to CRT using 70 pretreatment tumor samples from prospective trials of MIBC (NRG/RTOG 0524 and 0712). Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated via the Kaplan-Meier method and stratified by genes correlated with immune cell activation. Cox proportional-hazards models were used to assess group differences. Clustering of gene expression profiles revealed that the cluster with high immune cell content was associated with longer DFS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.26-1.10; p = 0.071) and OS (HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.24-0.97; p = 0.040) than the cluster with low immune cell content. Higher expression of T-cell infiltration genes (CD8A and ICOS) was associated with longer DFS (HR 0.40, 95% CI 0.21-0.75; p = 0.005) and OS (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.25-0.94; p = 0.033). Higher IDO1 expression (IFNγ signature) was also associated with longer DFS (HR 0.44, 95% CI 0.24-0.88; p = 0.021) and OS (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.24-0.99; p = 0.048). These findings should be validated in prospective CRT trials that include biomarkers, particularly for trials incorporating immunotherapy for MIBC. PATIENT SUMMARY: We analyzed patient samples from two clinical trials (NRG/RTOG 0524 and 0712) of chemoradiation for muscle-invasive bladder cancer using a novel method to assess immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. Higher expression of genes associated with immune activation and high overall immune-cell content were associated with better disease-free survival and overall survival for patients treated with chemoradiation.

Multi-institutional Analysis of Metastasis-directed Therapy with or Without Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Oligometastatic Castration-sensitive Prostate Cancer. Eur Urol Oncol 2024:S2588-9311(24)00086-5. [PMID: 38570239 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2024.03.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) is increasingly being used in oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC). However, it is currently unclear how to optimally integrate MDT with the standard of care of systemic hormonal therapy. OBJECTIVE To report long-term outcomes of MDT alone versus MDT and a defined course of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in omCSPC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Here, a multicenter, international retrospective cohort of omCSPC as defined by conventional imaging was reported. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Biochemical progression-free survival (bPFS), distant progression-free survival (dPFS), and combined biochemical or distant progression-free survival (cPFS) were evaluated with Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression models. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS A total of 263 patients were included, 105 with MDT + ADT and 158 with MDT alone. The majority of patients had metachronous disease (90.5%). Five-year bPFS, dPFS, and cPFS were, respectively, 24%, 41%, and 19% in patients treated with MDT + ADT and 11% (hazard ratio [HR] 0.48, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.36-0.64), 29% (HR 0.56, 95% CI 0.40-0.78), and 9% (HR 0.50, 95% CI 0.38-0.67) in patients treated with MDT alone. On a multivariable analysis adjusting for pretreatment variables, the use of ADT was associated with improved bPFS (HR 0.43, p < 0.001), dPFS (HR 0.45, p = 0.002), and cPFS (HR 0.44, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this large multi-institutional report, the addition of concurrent ADT to MDT appears to improve time to prostate-specific antigen progression and distant recurrence, noting that about 10% patients had durable control with MDT alone. Ongoing phase 3 studies will help further define treatment options for omCSPC. PATIENT SUMMARY Here, we report a large retrospective review evaluating the outcomes of metastasis-directed therapy with or without a limited course of androgen deprivation for patients with oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. This international multi-institutional review demonstrates that the addition of androgen deprivation therapy to metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) improves progression-free survival. While a proportion of patients appear to have long-term disease control with MDT alone, further work in biomarker discovery is required to better identify which patients would be appropriate for de-escalated therapy.

Identification of a Predictive Genomic Biomarker for Prostate-directed Therapy in Synchronous Low-volume Metastatic Castration-sensitive Prostate Cancer. Eur Urol Oncol 2024; 7:241-247. [PMID: 37558543 PMCID: PMC10850431 DOI: 10.1016/j.euo.2023.07.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard of care management for synchronous metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) includes androgen deprivation therapy with a second-generation antiandrogen therapy and/or docetaxel. Recently, randomized data have demonstrated that prostate-directed therapy (PDT) is associated with an improvement in overall survival (OS) among patients with low-volume metastatic disease. Tumor genomics represents an additional dimension to define the clinical trajectory of patients with mCSPC. OBJECTIVE To evaluate a high-risk (HiRi) genomic signature to predict the benefit from PDT. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS We performed a single-institution retrospective review of men with synchronous low-volume mCSPC who underwent DNA panel sequencing of their tumor. Patients were classified according to the presence of HiRi mutation including pathogenic mutations in TP53, ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, or Rb1. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The primary endpoint was to determine the effect of PDT on OS in patients with and without a HiRi mutation. A survival analysis was performed with the Kaplan-Meier method compared with log-rank test and multivariable Cox regression. The interaction between HiRi mutation and PDT was evaluated. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS A total of 101 patients with synchronous low-volume CSPC were included with a median follow-up of 44 mo. Approximately half of patients were found to have a HiRi pathogenic mutation (49%). Patients with HiRi mutations demonstrated median OS of 73 versus 66.8 mo (p = 0.3) for no PDT versus PDT. Conversely, patients without a HiRi mutation demonstrated a significant improvement in OS of 60 versus 105.3 mo (p < 0.001) for no PDT versus PDT. The p value for interaction for OS between PDT and HiRi mutation was statistically significant (p < 0.001). Limitations include the retrospective nature of the study. CONCLUSIONS Here, we have identified a HiRi genomic biomarker that appears predictive for the lack of benefit from PDT in men with synchronous low-volume mCSPC. Further work validating these results is warranted. PATIENT SUMMARY In this report, we evaluated a high-risk genomic biomarker to predict the benefit from prostate-directed therapy for men with synchronous low-volume metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. We found that men without a high-risk mutation appear to experience a greater clinical benefit from prostate-directed therapy than those with a high-risk mutation.

TP53 structure-function relationships in metastatic castrate-sensitive prostate cancer and the impact of APR-246 treatment. Prostate 2024; 84:87-99. [PMID: 37812042 DOI: 10.1002/pros.24629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Despite well-informed work in several malignancies, the phenotypic effects of TP53 mutations in metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) progression and metastasis are not clear. We characterized the structure-function and clinical impact of TP53 mutations in mCSPC. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed an international retrospective review of men with mCSPC who underwent next-generation sequencing and were stratified according to TP53 mutational status and metastatic burden. Clinical outcomes included radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) evaluated with Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox regression. We also utilized isogenic cancer cell lines to assess the effect of TP53 mutations and APR-246 treatment on migration, invasion, colony formation in vitro, and tumor growth in vivo. Preclinical experimental observations were compared using t-tests and ANOVA. RESULTS Dominant-negative (DN) TP53 mutations were enriched in patients with synchronous (vs. metachronous) (20.7% vs. 6.3%, p < 0.01) and polymetastatic (vs. oligometastatic) (14.4% vs. 7.9%, p < 0.01) disease. On multivariable analysis, DN mutations were associated with worse rPFS (hazards ratio [HR] = 1.97, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.31-2.98) and overall survival [OS] (HR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.14-3.68) compared to TP53 wild type (WT). In vitro, 22Rv1 TP53 R175H cells possessed stronger migration, invasion, colony formation ability, and cellular movement pathway enrichment in RNA sequencing analysis compared to 22Rv1 TP53 WT cells. Treatment with APR-246 reversed the effects of TP53 mutations in vitro and inhibited 22Rv1 TP53 R175H tumor growth in vivo in a dosage-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS DN TP53 mutations correlated with worse prognosis in prostate cancer patients and higher metastatic potential, which could be counteracted by APR-246 treatment suggesting a potential future therapeutic avenue.

Clinical and Genomic Differences Between Advanced Molecular Imaging-detected and Conventional Imaging-detected Metachronous Oligometastatic Castration-sensitive Prostate Cancer. Eur Urol 2023; 84:531-535. [PMID: 37173210 PMCID: PMC10636237 DOI: 10.1016/j.eururo.2023.04.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
In metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC), disease volume plays an integral role in guiding treatment recommendations, including selection of docetaxel therapy, metastasis-directed therapy, and radiation to the prostate. Although there are multiple definitions of disease volume, they have commonly been studied in the context of metastases detected via conventional imaging (CIM). One such numeric definition of disease volume, termed oligometastasis, is heavily dependent on the sensitivity of the imaging modality. We performed an international multi-institutional retrospective review of men with metachronous oligometastatic CSPC (omCSPC), detected via either advanced molecular imaging alone (AMIM) or CIM. Patients were compared with respect to clinical and genomic features using the Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson's χ2 test, and Kaplan-Meier overall survival (OS) analyses with a log-rank test. A total of 295 patients were included for analysis. Patients with CIM-omCSPC had significantly higher Gleason grade group (p = 0.032), higher prostate-specific antigen at omCSPC diagnosis (8.0 vs 1.7 ng/ml; p < 0.001), more frequent pathogenic TP53 mutations (28% vs 17%; p = 0.030), and worse 10-yr OS (85% vs 100%; p < 0.001). This is the first report of clinical and biological differences between AMIM-detected and CIM-detected omCSPC. Our findings are particularly important for ongoing and planned clinical trials in omCSPC. PATIENT SUMMARY: Metastatic prostate cancer with just a few metastases only detected via newer scanning methods (called molecular imaging) is associated with fewer high-risk DNA mutations and better survival in comparison to metastatic cancer detected via conventional scan methods.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) TP53 mutations appear to be enriched over the spectrum of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) and are associated with worse survival outcomes. We chose to further explore the impact of dominant negative (DN) TP53 mutations on mCSPC progression and pro-metastatic behaviors in addition to studying the ability of APR-246, a small molecule targeting TP53 mutants, to blunt pro-metastatic behaviors. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 531 mCSPC patients who underwent next-generation sequencing. Patients were stratified by metastasis timing (synchronous if metastasis present at diagnosis or metachronous if arising after definitive treatment of localized disease) and the number of metastatic lesions (oligometastatic ≤5 or polymetastatic >5 lesions). Tumors were classified based on TP53 mutation status (missense, truncating, or wild-type [WT]) and dominant negativity, which was defined as the production of a mutant protein that reduces the residual WT protein's transcriptional activity according to the World Health Organization TP53 database. Clinical outcomes were radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS), evaluated with Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox regression. To verify the impact of TP53 mutation on metastasis, we created isogenic 22Rv1 prostate cancer cell lines that carried either TP53 WT or TP53 R175H and tested this mutation for migration, invasion, and anchorage-independent growth. APR-246 (25-80 µM) was tested for anti-metastatic properties in vitro and anti-tumor growth in 22Rv1 xenografted nude mice. RESULTS In our cohort, 155 (29.2%) had a TP53 mutation, which mostly occurred in the DNA-binding domain (85.16%). DN TP53 mutations were associated with more aggressive disease states: DN TP53 mutations were enriched in patients with synchronous (vs. metachronous: 20.7% vs. 6.3%, p < 0.01) and polymetastatic disease (vs. oligometastatic: 14.4% vs. 7.9%, p < 0.01). On multivariable analysis, DN TP53 mutations were correlated with shorter rPFS (HR = 1.97, 95% CI: 1.31-2.98, p < 0.01) and OS (HR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.14-3.68, p = 0.02) compared to those with TP53 WT. In vitro, 22Rv1 cells with DN TP53 R175H mutation had increased abilities to migrate, invade, and form colonies compared to TP53 WT. APR-246 treatment of TP53 R175H mutants blunted the pro-metastatic effects of the cell line in vitro (p < 0.01 for all assays by unpaired t-test). Interestingly, APR-246 also inhibited xenograft tumor growth of 22Rv1 TP53 R175H mutants (p < 0.0001 by two-way ANOVA). CONCLUSION DN TP53 mutations were associated with poorer survival outcomes for mCSPC patients. DN TP53 mutations also promoted prostate cancer pro-metastatic behaviors in vitro, which was effectively counteracted by APR-246, making it a promising treatment option that should be explored further in early-phase clinical studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Recent data have shown the promise of metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) to improve outcomes in omCSPC patients. Response biomarkers are still needed to identify patients at an early time point who will not respond to the treatment. We have shown that PSMA PET-CT SUVmax changes over time may be a useful response biomarker that correlates with MFS, an important endpoint in these omCSPC patients. This study investigated radiomic imaging biomarkers derived from PSMA-PET acquired pre- and post-MDT for MFS prediction, which may provide better features to discriminate response in the future to improve the outcome of these patients. MATERIALS/METHODS We accrued an international multi-institutional cohort of omCSPC patients treated with stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) MDT. The cohort includes 32 patients from Institution 1 (USA) and 38 patients from Institution 2 (Europe). Both pre- and 6-month post-treatment PSMA-PET/CT were acquired. Combat was used for data harmonization in the image domain to minimize imaging variations across institutions. We defined the GTV volume as zone 1 and a 3-5 mm expansion ring area outside the GTV as zone 2 for radiomics analysis. 874 radiomics features (214 original and 660 wavelet filtered features) were extracted from both zones using open-source software and used together for MFS prediction. Function Chi2 was used to select the most significant five features. Several machine learning models (Random Forest, Logistic regression, Support Vector Machine, Naïve Bayesian) were implemented to predict MFS. The models were tested using both a leave-one-out strategy and cross-validation across the two institutions. RESULTS In the leave-one-out biomarker using 70 patients, random forest achieved the best accuracy, with MFS predicted correctly for 56 (80% of 70) patients. The five radiomic features identified based on their ability to predict MFS included Entropy, Skewness, and Compactness from zone 1, Skewness, and Mesh volume from zone 2. In the cross-institution tests, random forest predicted MFS correctly for 24 (75% of 32) patients when being trained using 38 Institution 2 patients and validated against 32 Institution 1 patients. Vice versa, the model predicted MFS correctly for 28 (74% of 38) patients when being trained using Institution 1 patients and validation using Institution 2 patients. The five features identified for prediction included Entropy and Skewness from both zones and Flatness from zone 1. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated the promise of using pre- and post-MDT PSMA-PET-based imaging radiomic biomarkers for MFS prediction for omCSPC patients. Imaging biomarkers predictive of MFS were identified in both GTV and the ring area outside GTV. Over 74% prediction accuracy was achieved in the cross-institution validation test. The model provides a valuable tool for prognosis prediction early following MDT, which opens up a unique opportunity for monitoring or treatment interventions for patients identified with poor prognoses to improve outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Data for treating 3 or more contiguous vertebral bodies with SBRT is limited. The purpose of this study was to explore oncologic outcomes and toxicity of spine SBRT delivered to large volume solid tumor metastases involving 3 or more contiguous vertebral levels. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients treated with spine SBRT for vertebral metastases involving 3 or more contiguous levels between 2009 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Data on demographics, dosimetry, toxicity, and outcomes were collected. Radiographic local failure was defined as progressive disease on CT and/or MRI in the treatment volume compared to the pre-SBRT baseline. Local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) were calculated from end of SBRT using the Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test. RESULTS A total of 141 patients were included with a median follow-up of 9.7 months. The majority of patients had either 3 (74%) or 4 (16%) involved contiguous vertebral levels. Twenty-two percent, 57%, 14%, and 7% of treated lesion began in the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral vertebral levels, respectively. The most common primary sites were NSCLC (15.6%), kidney (14.9%), and breast (13.5%). Thirty-two percent of patients had prior external beam radiation to the same vertebral level, 63% had prior surgery, and 43% had prior vertebral fracture. Paraspinal extension was identified in 26% at time of SBRT. Median pre-SBRT Bilsky grade was 2 (range 0-3). The median total prescription dose was 27 Gy (range: 12-43 Gy) with the most common dose (Gy)/fractionation schedules of 27/5 (32%), 30/5 (25%), and 25/5 (18%). The median Dmax was 4727 cGy (range 2070-7857) with a median prescription isodose of 58% (range 48-97). The median OS was 12.4 months (95% CI 9.6-15.3). 1- and 2- year OS were 51% and 35%, respectively. Local progression occurred across all histologies, most commonly in colon and NSCLC (16.7%). 1- and 2-year LC were 70% and 57%, respectively. In the radiation-naïve cohort, 1- and 2-year LC were 75% and 63%, respectively and 52% and 34% in the prior radiation group with no statistically significant difference in time to local progression (p = 0.075). There was no statistically significant difference in LC when comparing 3 versus 4 or more contiguous lesions (p = 0.66). Forty percent of patients that progressed underwent salvage treatment (58% surgery, 33% SBRT, 8% systemic therapy). Post-SBRT vertebral compression fracture rate was 11.6%. CONCLUSION We present the largest series to date of patients treated with SBRT for large volume spinal metastases involving 3 or more contiguous levels. These data suggest reasonable local control and low toxicity with SBRT; therefore, SBRT should be considered a practical modality to offer this cohort.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Prospective data have shown that metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) can alter the natural history of oligometastatic disease. In hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC), the clinical effect of MDT has been validated by STOMP, ORIOLE and SABR-COMET phase II trials. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are likely the source for the formation of macroscopic metastases. CTCs may provide an approach for identifying subgroups of patients with oligometastatic HSPC (oligoHSPC) that would benefit most from MDT. Our main goal was to evaluate the feasibility of CTC detection and subtypes in oligoHSPC patients that may benefit from MDT. MATERIALS/METHODS ORIOLE randomized men with recurrent HSPC with 1-3 metastases to observation (Obs) vs. stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) MDT. Blood samples were prospectively collected at baseline (D0) and 6-mos (D180) and shipped for analysis on Epic Sciences liquid biopsy platform (Epic Sciences, San Diego, CA). Machine learning algorithms identified CTCs and characterized androgen receptor (AR) and PSMA expression. Association with clinical factors and outcomes were examined. Biochemical failure-free survival (BFFS) event was a PSA rise of at least 2 ng/mL and 25% above nadir. Progression-free survival (PFS) was a composite endpoint including BFFS event, radiologic progression (RECIST v1.1); symptomatic progression; initiation of ADT; or death. Comparisons of patient and tumor characteristics performed by two-sample t-tests. Survival curves were generated by the Kaplan-Meier method and evaluated by the log-rank test. Effect of SABR on post-SABR on CTC levels were calculated by McNemar test. RESULTS A total of 82 samples were collected in ORIOLE: 70 SABR (35 D0 and 35 D180) and 12 Obs (7 D0 and 5 D180). 30/42 men had CTCs detected on D0 (71%; AR+ = 7, PSMA+ = 13) and in 26/40 on D180 (65%; AR+ = 9, PSMA+ = 8). Median follow-up was 41.7-mos. There was no association between CTC presence or subtypes (AR+ or PSMA+) with Gleason score or PSA. PFS was significantly lower in the patients with AR+ vs. AR- CTCs on D0 in the SABR arm (p = 0.011, median PFS: AR+ = 9.3- vs. AR+ = 27.1-mos). The median BFFS trended towards a difference for AR+ = 12.9- vs. AR- = 29.2-mos (D180, p = 0.058). SABR had no effect on the presence or subtypes of CTC at D180. CONCLUSION Baseline and dynamic CTC levels and their subtypes in oligoHSPC from the ORIOLE randomized trial of MDT was examined. AR+ CTCs at baseline and 6-mos were correlated with clinical outcomes following SABR. Longer follow-up, further analysis and a greater number of patients are needed for a more comprehensive conclusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) is commonly partitioned into high- and low-volume subgroups which have demonstrated differential biology, prognosis, and response to therapy. Timing of metastasis has similarly demonstrated differences in clinical outcomes, however less is known about any potential underlying biologic differences between these disease states. Herein we aim to compare transcriptomic differences between synchronous and metachronous mCSPC and identify any differential responses to therapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We performed an international multi-institutional retrospective review of men with mCSPC who completed RNA expression profiling evaluation of their primary tumor. Patients were stratified according to disease timing (synchronous vs metachronous). The primary endpoint was to identify differences in transcriptomic profiles between disease time. Median genomic scores between groups were compared with Mann-Whitney U test. Secondary analyses included determining clinical and transcriptomic variables associated with overall survival (OS) from time of metastasis. Survival analysis was performed with the Kaplan-Meier Method and Multivariable Cox regression. RESULTS A total of 252 patients were included with a median follow-up of 39.6 months. Patients with synchronous disease experienced worse 5-yr OS (39% vs 79%, p<0.01) and demonstrated lower median Androgen Receptor Activity (AR-A) (11.78 vs 12.64, p<0.01) and Hallmark Androgen Response (HAR) (3.15 vs 3.32; p<0.01). Multivariable cox-regression identified only high-volume disease (HR = 4.97, 95% CI 2.71-9.10; p<0.01) and HAR score (HR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.28-0.88; p = 0.02 significantly associated with OS. Finally, patients with synchronous (HR = 0.47, 95% CI 0.30-0.72; <0.01) but not metachronous (HR = 1.37, 95% CI 0.50-3.92; p = 0.56) disease were found to have better OS with Androgen Receptor (AR) + non-AR combination therapy as compared to monotherapy (p value for interaction = 0.05). CONCLUSION We have demonstrated a potential biologic difference between metastatic timing of mCSPC. Specifically, for patients with low volume disease, those with metachronous low volume disease have a more hormone dependent transcriptional profile and exhibit a better prognosis than synchronous low volume disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Standard of care management for metastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) includes androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with docetaxel or second-generation anti-androgen therapy. Recently, randomized data has demonstrated radiotherapy to the prostate is associated with an improvement in overall survival among patients with low-volume metastatic disease. Tumor genomics represents an additional dimension to understand the clinical trajectory of patients with mCSPC. Herein we aim to evaluate a high-risk genomic signature for its ability to predict response to prostate directed therapy (PDT). MATERIALS/METHODS We performed a single institution retrospective review of men with low-volume mCSPC who underwent next-generation sequencing of their tumor. Patients were classified according to the presence of high-risk (HiRi) mutation including pathogenic mutations in either TP53, ATM, BRCA1/2, or Rb1. Our primary endpoint was to determine the effect of PDT on overall survival (OS) in patients with and without a HiRi mutation. Survival analysis was performed with the Kaplan-Meier method compared with log-rank test and multivariable cox regression. Interaction between HiRi mutation and PDT was evaluated. RESULTS A total of 101 patients with synchronous low-volume CSPC were included in our analysis with a median follow-up of 44 months. Approximately half of patients were found to have a HiRi pathogenic mutation (48.5%) with TP53 mutations accounting for 75.5% of HiRi mutations. On multivariable cox regression PDT was associated with improvement in OS (HR = 0.37, 95% CI 0.16-0.88; p = 0.03). When stratified by presence of HiRi mutation, PDT was not associated with any clinical outcome. Patients with HiRi mutations demonstrated a median OS of 73 vs 66.8 months (p = 0.28) for no PDT and PDT, respectively. Conversely, patients without a HiRi mutation demonstrated a significant improvement in median OS of 60 vs 105.3 months (p<0.01) for no PDT and PDT, respectively. The p-value for interaction for OS between PDT and HiRi mutation was statistically significant (p<0.01). CONCLUSION Here we have identified a high-risk genomic biomarker that appears predictive for response to PDT in men with synchronous low-volume mCSPC. Further work validating these results with prospective randomized data is warranted.

Multi-Institutional Analysis of Metastasis Directed Therapy with or without Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Oligometastatic Castration Sensitive Prostate Cancer. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 117:e442-e443.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Several prospective trials in oligometastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) have shown metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) can delay time to progression and initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) compared to observation. However, the optimal integration of ADT with MDT remains unclear. Here we report a multi-national, multi-institutional retrospective cohort of omCSPC treated with MDT to characterize the long-term outcomes of patients treated with MDT alone or in combination with ADT. MATERIALS/METHODS Patients with a controlled primary site and omCSPC (defined as ≤ 5 lesions on conventional imaging) treated with MDT with or without concurrent ADT and with at least 36 months follow-up were retrospectively screened across 13 institutions. The primary endpoints included biochemical progression free survival (bPFS) and radiographic progression free survival (rPFS) calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and stratified by treatment group (MDT alone vs MDT + ADT). Multivariable Cox regression was performed adjusted for variables found to be prognostic on univariate analysis. RESULTS Among 414 patients screened, a total of 263 patients treated between 2003 and 2018 met inclusion criteria and included. Of these, 105 received MDT alone and 158 received MDT+ADT, with median follow-up of 49.5 and 54.5 months, respectively. The majority were metachronous (90%) and had bone lesions (60%). Median ADT duration was 21.3 months (IQR 12.0- 31.9). Patients who received ADT vs. no ADT had poorer prognostic features including 23% vs. 1% synchronous (p<0.001), and 55% vs 40% Gleason 8-10 (p = 0.012). ADT use was associated with a better 5-year bPFS 24% vs 11% (p<0.0001) and rPFS 41% vs 29% (p<0.001). On multivariable Cox regression adjusting for post-MDT PSA nadir and salvage therapy, ADT use maintained significance for both bPFS (HR 0.51 (0.36, 0.71), p<0.001) and rPFS (HR 0.67, 95% CI 0.46-0.96, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Long-term outcomes with MDT alone suggest a small proportion of patients experience sustained disease control. The addition of ADT appears to improve rPFS, however prospective studies are needed in order to allow for personalization of care in patients with omCSPC.

PSMA-Positive Extracellular Vesicles Predict Disease Recurrence in Oligometastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer Treated with Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy: Analysis of the ORIOLE trial. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 117:S36.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) can prolong progression free survival in oligometastatic prostate cancer (omPC) patients. However, predictive tools to identify those who will benefit from SABR are necessary. Our group was the first to demonstrate that plasma levels of prostate cancer-derived extracellular vesicles (ProstEVs) correlate with tumor burden and predict disease progression in omPC after SABR. Herein, we conducted a blinded validation study using plasma samples from the ORIOLE randomized phase 2 clinical trial in castration-sensitive patients. MATERIALS/METHODS Plasma samples from 46 omPC patients from the Baltimore ORIOLE trial: a 2:1 ratio randomization to SABR vs observation (NCT02680587). Baseline PSMA+ ProstEV levels were measured by standardized and calibrated nanoscale flow cytometry using fluorescent PSMA antibodies. Median ProstEV levels was used as cut-off for low and high levels. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression models were used to determine the association of ProstEV levels with clinical outcomes [PSA progression-free survival (psaPFS) and radiographic distant progression free survival (rPFS)]. RESULTS No association was observed between number of metastatic lesions or baseline PSA and plasma ProstEV levels. The rPFS for patients treated with SABR was 29.6 months. The rPFS for patients treated with SABR with high and low ProstEV levels were 11.1 months and 36 months, respectively (Hazard Ratio: 2.85; 95% CI, 1.01-7.48; P = 0.02). The psaPFS for patients treated with SABR was 11.9 months. The psaPFS for patients with high and low ProstEV levels were 5.9 months and 24.3 months, respectively (HR: 2.44; 95% CI, 1.00-5.94; P = 0.03). CONCLUSION ProstEVs is the first blood biomarker of tumor burden that can prognosticate the risk of disease recurrence in omPC patients treated with SABR. While biomarker-guided trials are warranted, our validation study strengthens the clinical value of ProstEVs for personalized radiation therapy.

Abstract
Histopathology and clinical staging have historically formed the backbone for allocation of treatment decisions in oncology. Although this has provided an extremely practical and fruitful approach for decades, it has long been evident that these data alone do not adequately capture the heterogeneity and breadth of disease trajectories experienced by patients. As efficient and affordable DNA and RNA sequencing have become available, the ability to provide precision therapy has become within grasp. This has been realized with systemic oncologic therapy, as targeted therapies have demonstrated immense promise for subsets of patients with oncogene-driver mutations. Further, several studies have evaluated predictive biomarkers for response to systemic therapy within a variety of malignancies. Within radiation oncology, the use of genomics/transcriptomics to guide the use, dose, and fractionation of radiation therapy is rapidly evolving but still in its infancy. The genomic adjusted radiation dose/radiation sensitivity index is one such early and exciting effort to provide genomically guided radiation dosing with a pan-cancer approach. In addition to this broad method, a histology specific approach to precision radiation therapy is also underway. Herein we review select literature surrounding the use of histology specific, molecular biomarkers to allow for precision radiotherapy with the greatest emphasis on commercially available and prospectively validated biomarkers.

Abstract
PURPOSE WNT signaling is a cellular pathway that has been implicated in the development and progression of prostate cancer. Oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) represents a unique state of disease in which metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) has demonstrated improvement in progression-free survival. Herein, we investigate the clinical implications of genomic alterations in the WNT signaling cascade in men with omCSPC. METHODS AND MATERIALS We performed an international multi-institutional retrospective study of 277 men with metachronous omCSPC who underwent targeted DNA sequencing of their primary/metastatic tumor. Patients were classified by presence or absence of pathogenic WNT pathway mutations (in the genes APC, RNF43, and CTNNB1). Pearson χ2 and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to determine differences in clinical factors between genomic strata. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated for radiographic progression-free survival and overall survival, stratified according to WNT pathway mutation status. RESULTS A pathogenic WNT pathway mutation was detected in 11.2% of patients. Patients with WNT pathway mutations were more likely to have visceral metastases (22.6% vs 2.8%; P < .01) and less likely to have regional lymph node metastases (29.0% vs 50.4%; P = .02). At time of oligometastasis, these patients were treated with MDT alone (33.9%), MDT + limited course of systemic therapy (20.6%), systemic therapy alone (22.4%), or observation (defined as no treatment for ≥6 months after metastatic diagnosis). Multivariable cox regression demonstrated WNT pathway mutations associated with significantly worse overall survival (hazard ratio, 3.87; 95% confidence interval, 1.25-12.00). CONCLUSIONS Somatic WNT pathway alterations are present in approximately 11% of patients with omCSPC and are associated with an increased likelihood of visceral metastases. Although these patients have a worse natural history, they may benefit from MDT.

Abstract
199 Background: Contained within the spectrum of metastatic cancer is an oligometastatic state where metastases are limited in number. Recent prospective data have shown that metastasis directed therapy (MDT) can alter the natural history of oligometastatic disease. In hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC), the positive clinical effect of MDT has been observed by the phase II STOMP and ORIOLE trials. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are a likely origin of the formation of macroscopic metastases. CTCs thus may provide an approach for identifying subgroups of patients with oligometastatic HSPC (oligoHSPC) that would benefit most from MDT. Our main goal was to evaluate the association between presence of CTCs at baseline or day 180 with clinical outcomes in the ORIOLE trial. Methods: ORIOLE was a phase II trial randomizing men with recurrent oligoHSPC with 1-3 metastases to observation (Obs) versus stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) MDT. Blood samples were prospectively collected at baseline and day 180. Progression-free survival (PFS) was a composite endpoint including any of the following: a PSA rise of at least 2 ng/dL and 25% above nadir; radiologic progression by CT, MRI or bone scan (RECIST v1.1); symptomatic progression of disease; initiation of ADT; or death. Patient blood samples were shipped for analysis on Epic Sciences liquid biopsy platform (Epic Sciences, San Diego, CA). Machine learning algorithms identified CTCs and characterized androgen receptor (AR) expression. Comparisons of patient and tumor characteristics between the groups were performed by two-sample t-tests. Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan-Meier method and p-values were calculated using log-rank test. Analysis was performed using SPSS version 28. Results: A total of 82 samples were collected: 70 from the SABR arm (35 baseline and 35 on day 180) and 12 Obs (7 baseline and 5 on day 180). CTCs were detected in 30/42 samples at baseline (71%, AR+= 7) and in 26/40 samples on day 180 (65%, AR+= 9). In the SABR group there was no difference between CTC+ versus CTC- and AR + versus AR- groups for PSA evaluated at baseline, day 90 or day 180 or Gleason score. With a median follow-up of 41.7 months, PFS was significantly lower in the patients with AR+ versus AR- CTCs at baseline in the SABR arm (p = 0.011, mean PFS: AR+ = 9.3 months, AR- = 27.1 months). The mean biochemical failure-free survival was AR+= 12.9 versus AR-= 29.2 months (p = 0.058). Conclusions: Our preliminary results demonstrate an association between AR+ CTCs at baseline and Day 180 with clinical outcomes following SABR MDT in oligoHSPC. This is the first report examining baseline and dynamic presence of CTCs in oligoHSPC treated from a prospective randomized trial of SABR. Longer follow-up, further analysis and a greater number of patients are needed for a more comprehensive conclusion.

Abstract
238 Background: Oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) represents an early state along the progression of metastatic disease in which patients experience improved outcomes compared to those with higher disease burden. Despite the generally more indolent nature, much heterogeneity still exists with some patients experiencing a more aggressive clinical course unexplained by clinical features alone. Here we correlate tumor genomics with modes of progression (MOP) and patterns of failure (POF) following treatment for omCSPC. Methods: We performed an international multi-institutional retrospective study of men treated for metachronous omCSPC, who underwent tumor next generation sequencing (NGS) with at least 1 year of follow-up. Descriptive POF and MOP were reported with respect to presence of genomic alterations in pathways of interest. Genomic pathways of interest included TP53, SPOP, WNT ( APC, CTNNB1, RNF43), DNA double strand break repair, cell cycle genes ( Rb1, CCND1–3, CDKN1B, and CDKN2A), and PI3K/AKT/mTOR. MOP were defined as oligoprogression (1-3 lesions), polyprogression (≥4 lesions), or long-term control (LTC, no radiographic progression at last follow-up). POF included location of lesions at first failure. Overall survival (OS) was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Genomic associations with patterns/modes of failure were compared with chi-square test. Results: 221 patients were included for analysis with the majority having either 1 (47.5%) or 2 (27.3%) metastatic lesions at oligometastasis. 5-yr OS was associated with MOP 92% vs 89% vs 69% (p<0.01) for LTC, oligo- and polyprogression respectively. TP53 mutations were associated with significantly lower rates of LTC (24.4% vs 46%, p<0.01) and cell cycle mutations associated with high rates of polyprogression (36.7% vs 15.7%, p<0.01). With respect to POF, bone failure was significantly more common within tumors harboring mutations in TP53 (41.2% vs 23.1%, p=0.01) and less common with SPOP mutations (4.2% vs 27.8%, p=0.02). Finally, visceral failures were more common in tumors harboring either WNT pathway (20% vs 5.1%, p<0.01) or SPOP (17.4% vs 5.2%, p=0.04) mutations. Notably, SPOP and WNT pathway mutations cluster together (p<0.01). Conclusions: Tumor genomics provides novel insight into patterns of failure and modes of progression following treatment for metachronous omCSPC. Patients with TP53 and cell cycle mutations have a higher likelihood of progression and TP53, SPOP, and WNT pathway mutations may have a role in metastatic organotropism.

Abstract
TPS275 Background: It is now recognized that some patients with “oligo,” or few sites of metastases, may have the potential to completely eradicate their disease with aggressive local therapy. There are recent encouraging randomized prospective data for total consolidation of macroscopic metastases through treatment intensification involving metastasis-directed therapy (MDT). Hypotheses include that radiation to primary prostate tumor and metastatic sites affects the natural history of metastasis by virtue of radiation effects on cancer cell autonomous pathways and tumor microenvironment/normal tissue pathways. This study aims to evaluate the utility of the addition of MDT to the evolving standard of care treatment for de novo low volume metastatic prostate cancer (PCa) patients. This study will evaluate the efficacy of best systemic therapy (BST) and primary prostate radiation (XRT) versus BST, XRT and stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) MDT. Discovery correlatives associated with clinical outcome will be assessed by collection of including, but not limited to: circulating tumor cells, immunologic biomarkers, microbiota and radiomics. Methods: This study is a multi-site, non-blinded, randomized Phase II trial in patients with oligometastatic PCa. Men with de novo histologically confirmed (at any site) oligometastatic PCa (<3 metastases on standard imaging or <5 on Axumin/Choline/PSMA-PET/CT) will be randomized (1:1) to BST + XRT versus BST + XRT + SABR MDT. BST and XRT will be administered for all men in the first 3-months, and radiation treatment will be completed within the first 150 days. A range of XRT treatment approaches are permitted but must deliver an EQD2 >75.6 Gy to the prostate. BST will allow standard and intensified androgen blockade. The trial will evaluate the addition of SABR MDT and explore several translational and imaging correlatives. Subjects who meet eligibility criteria and qualify for enrollment will be stratified according to: (i) hormonal therapy vs intensified hormonal therapy; (ii) XRT vs XRT + primary prostate boost, and (iii) absence vs presence of bone metastasis. This study has been approved and began accrual on October 3rd, 2022, the Clinicaltrials.gov. Identifier: NCT05223803. We assume an accrual time of 24 months, with 24 months of additional follow-up time, and will randomize a total of 122 patients (61 patients in each arm). The primary endpoint with be to assess 2-year failure-free survival (FFS). Secondary endpoints will include toxicity, quality of life (QoL), time to locoregional progression, time to distant progression, time to new metastasis, radiographic progression-free survival, and duration of response. Clinical trial information: NCT05223803 .

Abstract
Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported.The initial STOMP and ORIOLE trial reports suggested that metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) in oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC) was associated with improved treatment outcomes. Here, we present long-term outcomes of MDT in omCSPC by pooling STOMP and ORIOLE and assess the ability of a high-risk mutational signature to risk stratify outcomes after MDT. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. High-risk mutations were defined as pathogenic somatic mutations within ATM, BRCA1/2, Rb1, or TP53. The median follow-up for the whole group was 52.5 months. Median PFS was prolonged with MDT compared with observation (pooled hazard ratio [HR], 0.44; 95% CI, 0.29 to 0.66; P value < .001), with the largest benefit of MDT in patients with a high-risk mutation (HR high-risk, 0.05; HR no high-risk, 0.42; P value for interaction: .12). Within the MDT cohort, the PFS was 13.4 months in those without a high-risk mutation, compared with 7.5 months in those with a high-risk mutation (HR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.25 to 1.11; P = .09). Long-term outcomes from the only two randomized trials in omCSPC suggest a sustained clinical benefit to MDT over observation. A high-risk mutational signature may help risk stratify treatment outcomes after MDT.

Abstract
Our ability to prognosticate the clinical course of patients with cancer has historically been limited to clinical, histopathological, and radiographic features. It has long been clear however, that these data alone do not adequately capture the heterogeneity and breadth of disease trajectories experienced by patients. The advent of efficient genomic sequencing has led to a revolution in cancer care as we try to understand and personalize treatment specific to patient clinico-genomic phenotypes. Within prostate cancer, emerging evidence suggests that tumor genomics (e.g., DNA, RNA, and epigenetics) can be utilized to inform clinical decision making. In addition to providing discriminatory information about prognosis, it is likely tumor genomics also hold a key in predicting response to oncologic therapies which could be used to further tailor treatment recommendations. Herein we review select literature surrounding the use of tumor genomics within the management of prostate cancer, specifically leaning toward analytically validated and clinically tested genomic biomarkers utilized in radiotherapy and/or adjunctive therapies given with radiotherapy.

Abstract
5011 Background: Emerging data suggest metastasis-directed therapy (MDT) improves outcomes in patients with oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (omCSPC). Prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET/CT) can detect occult metastatic disease and has been proposed as a biomarker for treatment response. Herein we identify and validate a PSMA-PET biomarker for clinical outcomes following MDT in omCSPC. Methods: This was an international multi-institutional retrospective study of two completely independent cohorts of men with omCSPC, defined as ≤3 lesions, treated with metastasis-directed stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) who underwent PSMA-PET/CT prior to and 3-6 months after treatment. Pre- and post-SABR PSMA-PET/CT standardized uptake value (SUV) was measured for all lesions and PSMA response defined discretely using a cutpoint of ≥ 30% decrease in SUVmax. PSMA-PET response was correlated with lesion local control (LLC), radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) defined using conventional and PET imaging, and metastasis-free survival (MFS) defined by conventional imaging alone. Results: A total of 131 patients with 261 treated metastases were included in the analysis, with median follow-up of 29 months (IQR 18.5-41.3). Following SABR, 78.4% of lesions experienced a partial or complete PSMA response. Multivariable analysis demonstrated SUV response significantly associated with improved LLC (HR = 9.97, 95%CI 3.92-25.4; p < 0.01). Patients with PSMA response in all lesions experienced significantly better rPFS (HR = 0.49, 95%CI 0.26-0.92; p = 0.03) compared to their counterparts and this maintained significance within both the discovery (p < 0.01) and validation (p = 0.01) cohorts. Within the discovery cohort, patients with PSMA response in all lesions also experienced significantly improved MFS (HR = 0.24, 95%CI 0.07-0.85; p = 0.03); analysis of the independent validation cohort is ongoing. Conclusions: Following SABR, PSMA-PET response is a robust and externally validated radiographic biomarker for rPFS and appears to be associated with MFS pending validation. This approach holds promise for guiding clinical management of omCSPC.

Abstract
Purpose Patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer have demonstrated excellent clinical outcomes with surgical resection of hepatic and pulmonary metastases. Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) has emerged as an alternative local therapy for nonsurgical candidates. Herein, we report the oncologic and patient-reported quality-of-life (PR-QoL) outcomes for a subset of patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer who were treated in a prospective phase 2 multicenter clinical trial. Methods and materials Patients with a pathologically proven diagnosis of oligometastatic colorectal cancer were enrolled as part of a prospective study. SABR dose and fractionation schedules were dependent on the lesion location and size. Patient follow-up occurred 6 weeks after completion of SABR and at 3-month intervals for the following 3 years. Patients received the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General questionnaire at baseline and at each follow-up visit to assess PR-QoL. The total Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General questionnaire scores were compared with those from baseline using the Wilcoxon signed rank test. Overall survival, local progression-free survival (PFS), and distant PFS were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimation to the date of the last follow-up visit/death or local/distant failure. Results A total of 31 patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer with 1 (71.0%), 2 (16.1%), 3 (3.2%), 4 (3.2%), or 5 (6.5%) metastatic lesions were identified. After a median follow-up time of 50.1 months, the median OS from the time of completion of the SABR was 53.9 months (95% confidence interval, 23.2-84.6), and the 5-year OS, local PFS, and distant PFS were 45%, 83%, and 27%, respectively. Acute grade 2+ toxicity was 9.7% (pain, nausea, fatigue) and late grade 3+ toxicity (small bowel obstruction) was 3.2% with no significant change in PR-QoL in the year after SABR. Conclusions This subset analysis of a prospective phase 2 study demonstrates that SABR is a safe and effective treatment option for patients with unresectable oligometastic colorectal cancer. In addition, SABR of oligometastatic disease preserves PR-QoL.

Abstract
Introduction Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is an aggressive malignancy that has consistently demonstrated poor outcomes despite aggressive treatments. Despite multimodal treatment, local disease progression and local recurrence are common. Management of recurrent or progressive pancreatic carcinomas proves a further challenge. In patients previously treated with radiation therapy, stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a promising modality capable of delivering high dose to the tumor while limiting dose to critical structures. We aimed to determine the feasibility and tolerability of SBRT for recurrent or local pancreatic cancer in patients previously treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). Materials and methods Patients treated with EBRT who developed recurrent or local pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma treated with SBRT reirradiation at our institution, from 2004 to 2014 were reviewed. Our primary endpoints included overall survival (OS), local control, regional control, and late grade 3+ radiation toxicity. Endpoints were analyzed with the Kaplan-Meier method. The association of these survival endpoints with risk factors was studied with univariate Cox proportional hazards models. Results We identified 38 patients with recurrent/progressive pancreatic cancer treated with SBRT following prior radiation therapy. Prior radiation was delivered to a median dose of 50.4 Gy in 28 fractions. SBRT was delivered to a median dose of 24.5 Gy in 1-3 fractions. Surgical resection was performed on 55.3% of all patients. Within a median follow-up of 24.4 months (inter-quartile range, 14.9-32.7 months), the median OS from diagnosis for the entire cohort was 26.6 months (95% CI: 20.3-29.8) with 2-year OS of 53.0%. Median survival from SBRT was 9.7 months (95% CI, 5.5-13.8). The 2-year freedom from local progression and regional progression was 58 and 82%, respectively. For the entire cohort, 18.4 and 10.5% experienced late grade 2+ and grade 3+ toxicity, respectively. Conclusion This single institution retrospective review identified SBRT reirradiation to be a feasible and tolerable treatment strategy for patients with previous locally progressive or recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Results of a prospective phase 2 clinical trial of induction gemcitabine/capecitabine followed by stereotactic ablative radiation therapy in borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Pract Radiat Oncol 2018; 8:95-106. [PMID: 29291966 DOI: 10.1016/j.prro.2017.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2017] [Revised: 09/22/2017] [Accepted: 10/03/2017] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Stereotactic ablative radiation therapy's (SABR's) great conformity and short duration has become an attractive treatment modality. We report a phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy (ICT) followed by SABR in patient with borderline resectable (BR) and locally advanced (LA) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). METHODS AND MATERIALS Patients with biopsy-proven BR or LA PDAC were treated with four 21-day cycles of intravenous gemcitabine and oral capecitabine. Patients were restaged within 4 weeks after ICT by computed tomography and treated by 3-fraction SABR if no metastasis or progressive disease was identified. Patients were restaged 4 weeks following SABR to determine resectability. Tumor response was assessed with carbohydrate antigen 19-9. RESULTS Thirty-five patients (19 BR/16 LA) were enrolled. The median age was 71.8 years (range, 50.6-81.1). ICT was completed in 91.4% (n = 32) of patients. All patients who completed ICT completed SABR. Of those 32 patients, 34.3% (n = 12: 10 BR, 2 LA) underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and 11 of 12 (91.7%) received R0 resection. Median overall survival was 18.8, 28.3, and 14.3 months for the entire cohort, BR, and LA, respectively. The 2-year local progression-free survival (LPFS) was 44.9%, 40%, and 52% for the entire cohort, BR, and LA, respectively. For BR patients, multivariate analysis showed surgery was associated with better overall survival and LPFS. One-year LPFS for patients with surgery was 80% and 44% without surgery. Within the 15.4-month follow-up, no grade 3+ toxicity from SABR was observed. No significant quality of life change was observed before and after ICT, SABR, or surgery for BR or LA patients. CONCLUSIONS This is the first prospective phase 2 study to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of a 12-week gemcitabine/capecitabine ICT followed by SABR for BR or LA PDAC. The results suggest excellent tolerability, high R0 resection rates, and acceptable posttreatment complications.
