Impact of radiotherapy on survival in resected or unresectable anaplastic thyroid carcinomas, a Rare Cancer Network study. Cancer Radiother 2022; 26:717-723. [PMID: 35715353 DOI: 10.1016/j.canrad.2022.01.003] [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: 10/04/2021] [Revised: 01/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC) are a heterogenous group of tumors of overall dismal prognosis. We designed models to identify relevant prognostic factors of survival of irradiated ATC patients including radiotherapy modalities (field size, dose). MATERIAL AND METHODS Between 2000 and 2017, 166 ATC patients' treatments were divided into surgery and postoperative radiotherapy (poRT) or definitive radiotherapy (RT). Multiple imputation approach was used for missing data. Prognostic factors were identified using Lasso-penalized Cox modelling and predicted risk scores were built. RESULTS Patients undergoing RT (n=70) had more adverse patient and disease characteristics than those undergoing poRT (n=96). Corresponding median survival rates were 5.4 and 12.1 months, respectively. PoRT patients undergoing poRT more likely received extended-field radiotherapy with prophylactic nodal irradiation, but rather received platinum- vs. adriamycin-based chemoradiotherapy. Radiotherapy was conventionally fractionated, delivered >60Gy in 51.9% and 61.7% and used extended fields in 88.5% and 71.2% of patients with poRT or RT. Radiotherapy interruption rates for toxicity were similar in the two groups. The best poRT-group model identified age>45yo, PS≥1, pathologic tumor stage≥pT4b,>N1 and R2 resection as poor prognostic factors. The best RT-group model (C-index of 0.72) identified PS≥3,>N1 and extended-field radiotherapy with prophylactic nodal irradiation (as opposed to tumour-bed irradiation only) as poor prognostic factors. CONCLUSION In patients undergoing poRT, radiotherapy parameters had little influence over their survival irrespective of patient, disease characteristics, and quality of resection. In patients undergoing RT, extended-field radiotherapy improved survival in addition to PS and nodal stage.

Histosurgical mapping of endoscopic endonasal surgery of sinonasal tumours to improve radiotherapy guidance. Cancer Radiother 2021; 26:440-444. [PMID: 34175228 DOI: 10.1016/j.canrad.2021.06.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) is becoming a standard for most malignant sinonasal tumours. Margin analysis after piecemeal resection is complex and optimally relies on accurate histosurgical mapping. Postoperative radiotherapy may be adapted based on margin assessment mapping to reduce the dose to some sinonasal subvolumes. We assessed the use of histosurgical mapping by radiation oncologists (RO). MATERIAL AND METHODS A French practice survey was performed across 29 ENT expert RO (2 did not answer) regarding integration of information on EES, as well as quality of operative and pathology reportsto refine radiotherapy planning after EES. This was assessed through an electronic questionnaire. RESULTS EES was ubiquitously performed in France. Operative and pathology reports yielded accurate description of EES samples according to 66.7% of interviewed RO. Accuracy of margin assessment was however insufficient according to more than 40.0% of RO. Additional margins/biopsies of the operative bed were available in 55.2% (16/29) of the centres. In the absence of additional margins, quality of resection after EES was considered as microscopically incomplete in 48.3% or dubious in 48.3% of RO. As performed, histosurgical mapping allowed radiotherapy dose and volumes adaptation according to 26.3% of RO only. CONCLUSIONS Standardized histosurgical mapping with margin and additional margin analysis could be more systematic. Advantages of accurate EES reporting could be dose painting radiotherapy to further decrease morbidity in sinonasal tumours.

A new model outperforming RPA and DS-GPA scores for individualized survival prediction of patients following whole brain irradiation for brain metastasis. Cancer Radiother 2021; 25:447-456.

Abstract
PURPOSE Survival after whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) in patients with multiple brain metastases (BM) is currently predicted by group-based scoring systems with limited usability for decision. We aimed to develop a more relevant individualized predictive model than Radiation Therapy Oncology Group - Recursive Partitioning Analysis (RTOG-RPA) and Diagnosis - Specific Graded Prognostic Assessment (DS-GPA) for patients with limited life-expectancy. METHODS Based on a Discovery cohort of patients undergoing WBRT, multivariable piecewise Cox regression models with time cut-offs at 1 and 3 months were developed to predict overall survival (OS). A final parsimonious model was defined, and an external validation cohort was used to assess its discrimination and calibration at one, six, and 12 months. RESULTS In the 173-patient Discovery cohort, the majority of patients had primary lung cancer (56%), presence of extracranial disease (ECD) (75%), Eastern Cooperative Oncolgy Group - Performance Status (ECOG-PS) score 1 (41%) and no intracranial hypertension (ICH) (74%). Most patients were classified as the RPA class II (48%). The final piecewise Cox model was based on primary site, age, ECD, ECOG-PS and ICH. An external validation of the model was carried out using a cohort of 79 patients. Individualized survival estimates obtained with this model outperformed the RPA and DS-GPA scores for overall survival prediction at 1-month, 6-months and 12- months in both Discovery and Validation cohorts. A R/Shiny web application was developed to obtain individualized predictions for new patients, providing an easy-to-use tool for clinicians and researchers. CONCLUSION Our model provides individualized estimates of survival for poor prognosis patients undergoing WBRT, outperforming actual scoring systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cancer survivors often experience adverse physical and psychosocial effects. Fear of recurrence is a difficulty very commonly reported in post-cancer life. The primary objective of this study was to describe post-cancer supportive care needs in patients treated for breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this monocentric observational study, cancer survivors aged≥18years, diagnosed with breast cancer and treated in 2017 (cohort A) and in 2015 (cohort B) were administered a post-cancer needs questionnaire, and the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory (severity subscale). RESULTS The study included 139 patients. Pain (51.9%), fatigue (51.9%), weight gain during treatment (35.1%), psychological difficulties (20.5%), and difficulties in marriage and sexual life (13.1%) were the complaints in the post-cancer period. There were no differences between the two cohorts. The severity subscale of the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory showed 35.8% patients with a score>13. The fear of recurrence was a source of social difficulties, psychological disorders, and difficulties in marriage and sexual life. CONCLUSIONS Not only FCR, but also issues such as fatigue, pain, psychological difficulties, and difficulties in marriage and sexual life all call for a psycho-oncological follow-up. Clinical and radio-senological surveillance is essential, but it absolutely must be accompanied by a multidisciplinary follow-up, with central importance to psychological care.

Abstract
After publishing a retrospective series of 23 patients treated for a rectal squamous cell carcinoma with exclusive curative and conservative intent chemoradiation, we aim to propose a review of the literature about this rare tumour. We identified 11 retrospective studies, on 106 patients, treated between 2007 and 2016. Treatment of rectal squamous cell carcinoma should be similar to anal carcinoma, based on exclusive chemoradiation, displaying a 5-year overall survival rate over 80%, while it was 32% in surgical series. Baseline explorations should be similar as for anal carcinoma, with an interest in PET-CT at diagnosis and monitoring, after a delay over 6 weeks after chemoradiation. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy is legitimate, to a prophylactic dose between 36 and 45Gy, and over 54Gy to the tumour. Concomitant chemotherapy should combine an antimetabolite (5-fluorouracil or capecitabine) and mitomycin C, or cisplatin. This treatment seems well tolerated, associated with grade 2 or above toxicity below 30%. Follow-up should be established on anal squamous cell carcinoma schedule, with endoscopic ultrasonography and PET-CT. Rectal squamous cell carcinoma is a rare tumour; it management should be based on anal curative and conservative intent chemoradiation.

Abstract
The knowledge of inter- and intrafraction motion and deformations of the intrapelvic target volumes (prostate, seminal vesicles, prostatectomy bed and lymph nodes) as well as the main organs at risk (bladder and rectum) allow to define rational clinical to planning target volume margins, depending on the different radiotherapy techniques and their uncertainties. In case of image-guided radiotherapy, prostate margins and seminal vesicles margins can be between 5 and 10mm. The margins around the prostatectomy bed vary from 10 to 15mm and those around the lymph node clinical target volume between 7 and 10mm. Stereotactic body radiotherapy allows lower margins, which are 3 to 5mm around the prostate. Image-guided and stereotactic body radiotherapy with adequate margins allow finally moderate or extreme hypofractionation.

Abstract
For head and neck cancer, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) provides benefits in terms of coverage of the target tumour volume and reduction of the dose to organs at risk. Altered fractionation called SMART (simultaneous modulated accelerated radiation therapy) or SIB (simultaneous integrated boost), equivalent to the "concomitant boost" of conventional techniques, provides additional theoretical gain in the therapeutic index and simplifies the practical implementation of the treatment. The impact on tumour control and acute and late toxicities is encouraging but needs to be confirmed by prospective clinical studies with sufficient follow-up. A lot of different protocols have been tested without really bringing out a "gold standard". However, the current results tend to suggest a SIB/SMART-IMRT moderately accelerated without combined chemotherapy for limited stages (I and II), and SIB-IMRT slightly accelerated with induction and/or concomitant chemotherapy for more advanced stages (III and IV).

Abstract
Technology development in radiotherapy has improved significantly during the last decade. The rapid evolution of 3D radiotherapy to intensity-modulated radiotherapy was possible thanks to inverse planning systems. Intensity modulated radiotherapy improved in its turn by possibilities of volumetric irradiation during a single rotation, reducing therefore the overall treatment. This article presents the technical parameters of this volumetric irradiation technique and a review of miscellaneous clinical indications.

Abstract
Surgery alone is no longer appropriate to the treatment of T3-T4 resecable rectal cancer. Preoperative chemoradiotherapy has recently been approved as the new standard treatment. This approach improves local control with local failure rate raranging now around 6-8%. However, it does not impact on overall survival. It becomes urgent to develop new concepts and a basic research in the understanding of the biological mechanisms that may explain the resistance of the micrometastatic process.

Abstract
Orchiectomy with adjuvant radiotherapy of retroperitoneal paraaortic and ipsilateral iliac nodes is the standard treatment for localized testicular seminoma (I, IIA, IIB). Post therapeutic follow-up allows to detect local relapse and radio-induced second cancer. Nevertheless, evaluation of risk of second malignancy still remains difficult. We report 2 cases of rectal cancer after radiotherapy for testicular seminoma.
