Clinical Outcomes Among Patients Treated With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy to Femur Metastases for Oligometastatic Disease Control or Reirradiation: Results From a Large Single-Institution Experience.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

There are limited data regarding outcomes after stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for femur metastases, which was an exclusion criteria for the Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for the Comprehensive Treatment of Oligometastatic Cancers (SABR-COMET) trial. We aimed to characterize clinical outcomes from a large single institution experience.

Methods and materials

Forty-eight patients with 53 lesions were consecutively treated with femur SBRT from May 2017 to June 2022. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard models were used to characterize time-to-event endpoints and associations between baseline factors and clinical outcomes, respectively. Local control and locoregional control were defined as the absence of tumor progression within the radiat
