Long-Term Outcomes of a Phase I Trial of Weekly Docetaxel, Total Androgen Blockade, and Image Guided Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy for Localized High-Risk Prostate Adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Our purpose was to describe the long-term outcomes seen with the addition of concurrent weekly docetaxel to high-dose intensity modulated radiation (IMRT) to the prostate and androgen deprivation therapy in patients with high-risk nonmetastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate.

Methods and materials

Nineteen patients with high-risk, localized prostate cancer were treated in a phase I trial with concurrent docetaxel at doses of 10 to 30 mg/m², in a dose-escalated scheme, in addition to IMRT (77.4 Gy/43 fx) and neoadjuvant and concurrent combined androgen blockade (gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and antiandrogen). A gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist was continued for an additional 24 months post radiation. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate the survival probabilities.

Results

At a median follow-up of 10.5 years, 5-year and 10-year overall survival were found to be 89.5% and 68.4%, respectively. The median metastasis-free survival and progression-free survival were determined to be 11.3 years and 9.0 years, respectively.

Conclusions

This regimen produced a 10-year overall survival of 68% with a 10-year metastasis-free survival of 58%. Grade >2 toxicity was minimal. These limited data suggest that the addition of concurrent weekly docetaxel to high-dose IMRT for high-risk prostate cancer warrants further investigation.

Project description:PurposeThis study reported long-term outcomes of patients with cervical cancer who were treated with intensity modulated radiation therapy and 3-dimensional (3D) image-guided adapted brachytherapy (IMRT/3D-IGABT) compared with those treated with 2-dimensional (2D) external irradiation and 2D brachytherapy (2D EBRT/BT).Methods and materialsThis study included patients with newly diagnosed cervical cancer and pretreatment fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography scans who were treated with curative-intent irradiation from 1997 to 2013. The treatment policy changed from using 2D EBRT/BT to IMRT/3D-IGABT in 2005. Patterns of recurrence, cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS) were evaluated. Late gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity were scored with National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.ResultsThe median follow-up for patients alive at the time of last follow-up in the 2D EBRT/BT group (n = 300) was 15.3 years (range, 10.8-20.5 years). In the IMRT/3D-IGABT group (n = 300), it was 7 years (range, 5-12.4 years). According to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 33% of tumors were stage IB1 to IB2, 41% were stage IIA to IIB, and 26% were stage IIIA to IVA. The results after 5 years for patients treated with 2D EBRT/BT showed that freedom from relapse (FFR) was 57%, CSS was 62%, and OS was 57%. For the IMRT/3D-IGABT group, the 5-year results showed that FFR was 65% (P = .04), CSS was 69% (P = .01), and OS was 61% (P = .04). When stratified by lymph node status according to positron emission tomography scan results, disease control was most improved with IMRT/3D-IGABT versus 2D EBRT/BT in patients with positive pelvic lymph nodes only (P = .02). Cumulatively, 88 of 600 patients (15%) had grade ≥3 late bowel/bladder toxicity. The 2D EBRT/BT group had 55 patients (18%), and the IMRT/3D-IGABT group had 33 patients (11%; P = .02).ConclusionsIMRT/3D-IGABT was associated with improved survival and decreased gastrointestinal and genitourinary toxicity in patients with cervical cancer compared with those who received 2D EBRT/BT.

Project description:BackgroundAdvanced radiotherapy (RT) techniques allow normal tissue to be spared in patients with extremity soft tissue sarcoma (STS). This work aims to evaluate toxicity and outcome after neoadjuvant image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) as helical intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with reduced margins based on MRI-based target definition in patients with STS.MethodsBetween 2010 to 2014, 41 patients with extremity STS were treated with IGRT delivered as helical IMRT on a tomotherapy machine. The tumor site was in the upper extremity in 6 patients (15%) and lower extremity in 35 patients (85%). Reduced margins of 2.5 cm in longitudinal direction and 1.0 cm in axial direction were used to expand the MRI-defined gross tumor volume, including peritumoral edema, to the clinical target volume. An additional margin of 5 mm was added to receive the planning target volume. The full total dose of 50 Gy in 2 Gy fractions was sucessfully applied in 40 patients. Two patients received chemotherapy instead of surgery due to systemic progression. All patients were included into a strict follow-up program and were seen interdisciplinarily by the Departments of Orthopaedic Surgery and Radiation Oncology.ResultsThirty eight patients that received total RT total dose and subsequent resection were analyzed for outcome. After a median follow-up of 38.5 months cumulative OS, local PFS and systemic PFS at 2 years were determined at 78.2, 85.2 and 54.5%, respectively. Two of 6 local recurrences were proximal marginal misses. Negative resection margins were achieved in 84% of patients. The rate of major wound complications was comparable to previous IMRT studies with 36.8%. RT was overall tolerable with low toxicity rates.ConclusionsIMRT-IGRT offers neoadjuvant treatment for extremity STS with reduced safety margins and thus low toxicity rates. Wound complication rates were comparable to previously reported frequencies. Two reported marginal misses suggest a word of caution for reduction of longitudinal safety margins.

Project description:ObjectiveTo report acute hematological toxicity (HT) in patients receiving post-operative bowel sparing intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and cisplatin and its dosimetric predictors.MethodsClinical database of Phase III trial (NCT01279135), that randomized patients to post-operative conformal or intensity modulated radiation therapy, was searched to select patient strata that received bowel sparing IMRT (50 Gy/25#/5 wks) and concurrent cisplatin (40 mg m-2). Pelvic bone marrow (BM) was retrospectively delineated in two sets: whole bone (WB), and freehand (FH) inner cavity of bone. Dose volume histograms (DVH) of BM were obtained. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve identified DVH thresholds that predicted for Grade≥ II HT with highest specificity. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed.ResultsOverall 75 patients received concurrent cisplatin. Grades I-V HT was observed in 38.7%, 42.7%, 14.7%, 0%, and 0% patients, respectively. Grade ≥ II leukopenia, neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia were observed in 26%, 40%, 26.5%, and 1.4% respectively. None of the HT resulted in treatment break. On univariate analysis, whole pelvis+ lumbar FH V30 >55% & V40>35%, whole pelvis WB and FH V40 > 35%, and lower pelvis WB and FH V40 >20% correlated for Grade ≥ II leucopenia and neutropenia. None of the BM dose volume constraints predicted for overall HT or neutropenia on multivariate analysis.ConclusionThe IMRT arm of NCT01279135 (PARCER study) that employed strict bowel constraints had unintentional but desirable BM sparing. None of the BM subvolume DVH parameters could be validated on multivariate analysis.Advances in knowledgeThe prospective study reports feasibility of bone marrow sparing with bowel sparing post-operative pelvic IMRT and concurrent chemotherapy for cervical cancer. The present study reports low incidence of hematological and gastrointestinal toxicity during post-operative chemoradiation with IMRT. As both whole bone and freehand pelvis BM contours predicted for HT, hence an easier method of whole bone contouring should continue to be used till further validation of more specific BM subvolumes becomes available. The study results highlight the need for further research into dose volume constraints during post-operative IMRT.
