  1. Stage I Lung Radiosurgery: Overview, Results, and Current RTOG Studies Douglas Johnson, MD, FACR Florida Radiation Oncology Group ACRIN Sept 2010 Annual Meeting

  2. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy • High ablative dose • SRS= single Fx SBRT= 2-5 Fx • Overwhelms repair/repopulation mechanisms • BED important? (>100) • Short time (1-5 treatments) • Tight targets and rapid dose fall-off • Damages everything in high dose area • Critical to limit toxicity • Need target tracking or gating system

  3. 100 multiple 2 Gy fractions Survival 10-1 single fraction 10-2 68 4 2 Dose (Gy) Disrupts Clonagenicity

  4. 90% tumor control toxicity PROBABILITY 10% DOSE OF RADIATION Tumor on Plateau,Toxicity on Transition

  5. Conformal high dose • This constitutes the tumor control (place it well) • Being conformal is easy – especially with many beams or arcs

  6. Compact intermediate dose This is the hardest part of the SBRT process and distinguishes a good plan from a poor plan! - This accounts for toxicity. All of this dose is in normal tissues - Infinite possibilities – some much more toxic than others

  7. SRS: from BrainBody • Radiosurgery: initially CNS • Leksell Gamma Knife • >80-90% control for benign and malignant tumors, AVM’s, trigeminal neuralgia • Limited tumor motion within skull • Motion definition and compensationcritical in body radiosurgery sites • To limit normal tissue dose • Cyberknife (CK)—respiratory modeling for tracking • Linac-based (Novalis NTX)—gating compensation

  8. Evolution of Technological Innovation

  9. CyberKnife

  10. Respiratory Gating

  11. Lung SBRT Literature

  18. Outcomes After Stereotactic Lung Radiotherapy or Wedge Resection for Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Grills, Mangona, et al William Beaumont Hospital, Detroit JCO Feb 2010

  19. Study characteristics • Nonrandomized, retrospective, single-institution experience (SBRT patients treated prospectively on Ph II trial) • 124 pts, all ineligible for anatomic lobectomy, all staged w/contrast CT & PETCT • First published direct comparison of SBRT to any form of surgery for Stg I NSCLC • Outcomes examined = recurrence, metastasis, survival, complications • Median F/U 2.5 yrs (30 mo)

  20. Surgery • 69 pts, all judged ineligible for lobectomy preoperatively • 30% had mediastinoscopy prior to surgery • 20% open thoracotomy, 52% VATS, 28% VATSconvert to open • 71% had either preopmediastinoscopy, intraop LND, or both • Pathologic T4 lesions/synchronous primaries excluded from analysis

  21. SBRT • 58 pts, 95% medically inoperable but technically resectable • Treated prospectively on Phase II trial • Staging • contrast CT, PETCT, brain MRI, bone scan • 20% had mediastinoscopy • Linacradiosurgery with isocentric planning, daily cone-beam CT target registration • GTV defined on 10 different phases of respiration to form ITV, total of 9mm margin added to ITV • 48Gy in 4 fx for T1, 60Gy in 5 fx for T2, given QOD • Conservative normal tissue constraints

  22. Median time to LR = 10.5 mo for SBRT, 25 mo for wedge Median time to RR or DM = 9 mo for SBRT, 25 mo for wedge

  23. Conclusions • For medically inoperable/borderline operable pts, SBRT provides outcomes equivalent to limited resection, with shorter recovery time & fewer significant complications. • Randomized clinical trials comparing SBRT to limited resection are justified and needed

  24. Current SBRT Issues • Appropriate margin • Appropriate dose for central vsparenchymalvs peripheral lesions • Interpretation of CT & PET changes following SBRT • Can/Should we treat PET-positive apparent Stg IA disease without pathology?

  25. Location, location, location… Current RTOG Lung SBRT trials

  26. RTOG 0915: A Randomized Phase II Study Comparing 2 Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) Schedules for Medically Inoperable Patients with Stage I Peripheral Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer • Activated September 2009 • Intergroup RTOG/NCCTG • N: 88 patients (32 or 88 enrolled as of 9/13/2010) • Primary endpoint: to compare >grade 3 toxicities at 1 year • Secondary endpoints: compare 1 year control rates, survival, DFS, FDG PET SUV changes, PFT’s, biomarkers

  27. RTOG 0813Seamless Phase I/II Study of Stereotactic Lung Radiotherapy (SBRT) for Early Stage, Centrally Located, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in Medically Inoperable Patients • Activated Feb 2009 • N: 94 patients (21 enrolled as of 9/13/2010) • Central caution: Timmerman showed 11 fold increase in G>3 complications with 3 Fx 20Gy • Primary endpoint: Determine Max Tolerated Dose (MTD) with 5 Fx over 2 weeks, and local control at that MTD • MTD = 20% chance of designated adverse event • Secondary endpoint: see if circulating molecular marker levels before and after treatment predict control and adverse events

  28. Lung SBRT Summary • Excellent local control rates (85-97%) seen in single institution series • Already replacing open surgery in Europe • Questions remain: • Can results be duplicated in multi-institution settings • Ideal dose and fractionation • How best to measure response • Difficulties with follow-up studies
