Within OP, lesion number was independently associated with TTNS (adjusted HR 1.77 per lesion). Across four randomised trials the pooled hazard ratio for PFS was 0.73 (0.53-1.00; p = 0.053). Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in 21 of 1,366 patients (1.50 %; 0.74-2.28).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>SABR achieves durable local control with few treatment-related adverse events in all clinical contexts. Clinical context, rather than dose or metastatic site, determines whether that local effect translates into systemic benefit. Randomised evidence neither establishes nor excludes a benefit; trials stratified by oligometastatic state are required.</p>","PeriodicalId":21041,"journal":{"name":"Radiotherapy and Oncology","volume":" ","pages":"111789"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2026-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149012373","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
