IGRT as an Emerging Technology: Do We Have All the Facts? • Hypofractionation and high dose single fraction radiation appear to have different responses compared to conventional fractionation • Radiosensitivity is not histology dependent • High dose hypofractionation/single fraction RT appears to be ablative “SABR” • What are the mechanisms of response?
Deficiencies of the LQ Model for SBRTResponseKirkpatrick et al. SemRadiatOncol 18, 2008 • Brain metastases are well controlled with 15-20Gy (25-35Gy calculated) • Cancer stem cells may require a higher threshold dose of radiation to overcome inherent radioresistance (>13 Gy for intestinal stem cells) • LQ model doesn’t model threshold effects • Classical radiobiology based upon in vitro rather than in vivo data • LQ model can’t account for other in vivo mechanisms of response at high doses

High Dose IGRT and Vascular Response • Vascular collapse an important aspect of high dose RT response • Significant endothelial apoptosis (ceramide repressed by VEGF inhibition) –within minutes of RT! • Radioresistant phenotypes become radiosensitive with VEGF suppression—ceramideactiviation • Dose de-escalation for IGRT+ VEGF inhibitors? • DCE MRI changes: Evidence for the vascular effect?
DCE Parameters Tumor lower Vp than Normal Tissue High “leakage” if Ktrans is high Quick “washout” if Kep is high Necrosis: slow Kep Two-compartment tracer pharmacokinetic model, in which Vp = intravascular volume, Ve = interstitial volume, Ktrans = rate constant of Gd leakage from the intravascular to interstitial space, and Kep = elimination rate constant.

Materials and Methods 5 male patients with spine metastasis • 4 metastatic prostate: T5, T10, L2, L3 • 1 metastatic thyroid: L4 • T1 weighted DCE MRI performed on a 1.5 Tesla magnet utilizing dynamic imaging processing software (NordicICE) prior to and within one hour after undergoing single fraction HD-IGRT • All metastasis were treated to 24Gy in a single fraction • Patients were given steroids before treatment.
MRI studies were acquired with a 1.5T GE scanner using an 8 channel cervical-thoracic-lumbar (CTL) surface spinal coil. • T1 weighted DCE MR images were obtained with 3D fast SPGR sequence with following MR parameters: • NordicNeuroLab T1DCE perfusion software TR= 3.6sec TE= 1.1sec number of phases = 80 slice thickness = 10 mm flip angle =30° FOV=34 cm matrix size 256 × 256
Materials and Methods • Vp and Ktrans of the metastasis were normalized as a ratio to adjacent nonirradiated marrow and compared pre and 1 hour post RT T1 Ktran Vp Courtesy Eric Lis MD
Materials and Methods • Ratios of Vp and Ktrans to adjacent marrow were plotted on a graph. Percent change Pre and one hour Post RT also computed. L2 metastatic prostate

Results Local Recurrence Ktrans Vp Peak AUC Vp Ktrans AUC Peak p>0.0001
Recurrence 1: Patient #40 Fractions: 1 Tx date: 5/18/11 Recurrence date: 11/10/11 Time to recurrence: 6 mos Surgery date: 7/30/12 Time to last FU: 14 mos Perfusion parameters increased at least 4 mos before recurrence!
Recurrence 6: Patient #78 Fractions: 1 Tx date: 12/3/09 Recurrence date: 8/4/11 Time to recurrence: 21 mos Surgery date: 8/5/11 Time to last FU: 21 mos Perfusion parameters may have increased 18 mos before recurrence!
Prelim Results • Local control (n=36) • Average Vp decreased 70% • Average Ktransdecreased 60% • Local recurrence (n=6) • Average Vpincreased 34% • Average Ktrans decreased 15% • Vp: p=0.0007
Discussion • DCE MRI is feasible in spine metastases • Plasma volume was the only factor that was associated with tumor response • Decreases in Vp likely represent reduced tumor vascularity and hence treatment response • mean reduction of 66% for locally controlled leisons • Increases in Vp represent increased tumor vasculature and hence tumor growth
Conclusion • Vascular changes may be important in the response of tumors to high dose RT • Supports endothelial apoptosis • MRI DCE may be predictive of tumor response to high dose per fraction RT • MRI DCE may provide a “window” into the tumor even when standard MRI only demonstrates “stable” findings within the marrow • Continued work is ongoing to confirm these findings in a larger dataset
Future Directions • Diagnostic tool: sensitivity and specificity • Threshold values for control and failure • Predictive tool • Preliminary results suggest that DCE findings can predict for tumor recurrence before standard MRI findings • Other body sites? • Assess response to other types of therapy?
