Abstract

Introduction/Background*Data supporting stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for oligometastatic gynecological cancer patients are increasing, but stereotactic treatments have not yet been fully explored. The aim of this retrospective, multicenter study (MITO RT-02) was to define efficacy and safety of SBRT in a very large, real life dataset of metastatic/persistent/recurrent cervical cancer (MPR-CC) patients.

Methodology Clinical and SBRT parameters have been collected in order to fulfill primary endpoints, i.e. the rate of complete response (CR) to SBRT, and the 24-month actuarial local control (LC) rate on ‘per lesion’ basis. The secondary end-points were acute and late toxicities. Objective response rate (ORR) included CR and partial response (PR). Clinical benefit (CB) included ORR and stable disease (SD). Toxicity was evaluated by RTOG/EORTC and CTC-AE scales, according to center policy.

Result(s)*Fifteen centers participated to the study; after evaluation of inclusion/exclusion criteria, 84 CC patients, carrying a total of 126 lesions treated by SBRT between March 2006 and February 2021, were selected for the analysis. Patient characteristics and treatment data are summarized in table 1. Complete and partial response, as well as stable disease were observed in 73 (57.9%), 30 (23.8%), and 16 (12.7%) lesions, respectively, reaching about 94% CB rate. With a median follow-up of 14 months (range: 3-130), the 24-month actuarial LC, DFS and OS rate were 61.8%, 22.3%, 52.9%, respectively. Mild acute toxicity was experienced in 14 (16.6%) patients; late toxicity was documented in 4 patients (4.7%).

Patients and treatments characteristics

Conclusion*This study confirms the efficacy and safety of SBRT in MPR-CC patients. The low toxicity profile suggests a wider use of this treatment in this setting, however combinations with new drugs are needed to improve outcomes.
