Abstract

Purpose: To report on the outcomes of a phase I study of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for treatment of liver metastases. Patients and Methods: Patients with liver metastases that were inoperable or medically unsuitable for resection, and who were not candidates for standard therapies, were eligible for this phase I study of individualized SBRT. Individualized radiation doses were chosen to maintain the same nominal risk of radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) for three estimated risk levels (5%, 10%, and 20%). Additional patients were treated at the maximal study dose (MSD) in an expanded cohort. Median SBRT dose was 41.8 Gy (range, 27.7 to 60 Gy) in six fractions over 2 weeks. Results: Sixty-eight patients with inoperable colorectal (n = 40), breast (n = 12), or other (n = 16) liver metastases were treated. Median tumor volume was 75.2 mL (range, 1.19 to 3,090 mL). The highest RILD risk level investigated was safe, with no dose-limiting toxicity. Two grade 3 liver enzyme changes occurred, but no RILD or other grade 3 to 5 liver toxicity was seen, for a low estimated risk of serious liver toxicity (95% CI, 0 to 5.3%). Six (9%) acute grade 3 toxicities (two gastritis, two nausea, lethargy, and thrombocytopenia) and one (1%) grade 4 toxicity (thrombocytopenia) were seen. The 1-year local control rate was 71% (95 CI, 58% to 85%). The median overall survival was 17.6 months (95% CI, 10.4 to 38.1 months). Conclusion: Individualized six-fraction liver metastases SBRT is safe, with sustained local control observed in the majority of patients.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
