Treatment differs by grade but can consist of observation, surgery, radiation therapy or both. We utilized the National Cancer Database (NCDB) to compare trends in the use stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) in the management of meningioma. Materials and Methods We queried the NCDB from 2004–2015 for meningioma patients (grade 1–3) treated with radiation therapy, either SRS or EBRT. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify predictors of each treatment and to generate a propensity score. Propensity adjusted Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis and multivariable Cox hazards ratios were used to identify predictors of survival. Results We identified 5,406 patients with meningioma meeting above criteria with 45%, 44%, and 11% having World Health Organization (WHO) grade 1, 2, and 3 disease, respectively. Median follow up was 43 months. Predictors for SRS were grade 1 disease, distance from treatment facility, and histology. The only predictor of EBRT was grade 3 disease. Treatment year, histology, race and female sex were associated with improved survival. Five- and 10-year survival rates were 89.2% versus 72.6% (p < 0.0001) and 80.3% versus 61.4% (p = 0.29) for SRS and EBRT respectively. After propensity matching 226 pairs were generated. For SRS, 5-year survival was not significantly improved at 88.2% compared with EBRT (p = 0.056). Conclusion In the present analysis, predictors of SRS utilization in management of meningioma include WHO grade 1 disease, distance from treatment facility and histology whereas conventional EBRT utilization was associated with grade 2 and 3 disease. Future studies need to be performed in order to optimize management of atypical and malignant meningioma.","PeriodicalId":46572,"journal":{"name":"Radiation Oncology Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"29 - 36"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82989887","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We performed a retrospective study to evaluate the response rates and late complications and to determine the adequate RT dose for patients with KMS patients. Materials and Methods We studied 11 patients who received RT between October 1988 and September 2008 for KMS refractory to pharmacologic therapy. All patients had external hemangiomas and received the diagnosis of KMS within 12 months of birth. All 11 patients received steroids as the first-line therapy; eight patients additionally received interferon-α therapy, and one patient underwent surgery. Nine patients underwent single-course RT with a total dose of 4.5–8 Gy (1.5–2 Gy/fraction). Two patients received multiple courses of RT, with a cumulative total dose of 12 Gy (2 Gy/fraction) and 18 Gy (1.5 Gy/fraction), respectively. Results The median follow-up period was 156 months (interquartile range [IQR], 75 to 226 months). The median total dose of RT was 6 Gy, and all patients maintained complete remission until the last follow-up. An additional course of RT was performed for refractory cases or cases of local relapse after initial RT. Rapid platelet count increase after RT was seen in most patients, which returned to normalcy in a median of 20 days (IQR, 5 to 178 days). However, seven patients experienced radiation-related long-term complications. Conclusion Low-dose RT is effective and yields rapid response in patients with KMS. However, given growth-related late complications, RT should be carefully considered.","PeriodicalId":46572,"journal":{"name":"Radiation Oncology Journal","volume":"26 1","pages":"45 - 52"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86104140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As mentioned by the authors, while this phenomenon has been described for decades, the underlying molecular mechanisms allowing localized radiation to exert a disseminated anti-tumoral effect remains profoundly opaque. Although a multiplicity of pathways, effectors and mediators have been described, little work yielded results which could allow the clinical instrumentalization of this effect. In this review, the authors report the proposed unifying mechanism allowing distant effect of localized radiation therapy, which hinges on the activation of local CD T lymphocytes. These effector cells are exposed and primed to tumoral antigens and then exported to distant lesion sites, where they operate their cytolytic effect. The authors also mention that the generation of a large amount of de novo tumor antigens is responsible for robust immunogenicity, which is required to achieve potent activation of local leukocytes, as confirmed by others [2]. We do agree that tumor mutational burden (TMB) is usually considered as the primary predictor of neoantigen load, which is itself ontologically associated with tumoral immunoreactivity [3]. However, as underlined in pancreatic cancer [4] as well as other organ systems, distinct orthogonal signatures, like chemokine expression, can be used as robust, complementary proxies of the degree of tumoral T-cell infiltration and activation, even in the absence of high TMB or neoantigens. Alternatively, a variety of molecular signatures characteristic of T cell-inflamed phenotypes have been identified, with high T-cell infiltration generally predictive of good immunotherapeutic response. This, in turn, provides a plausibly robust prognosticator of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors [5]. In essence, it is suggested that tumoral immunogenicity, and response to immunotherapy, are not solely contingent on neoantigens and, by extension, TMB. Indeed, recent analysis of the phase 2 pan-cancer study (CA209-538) demonstrated no predictive value of TMB to response to combined PD-1/CTLA-4 (programmed cell death protein-1/cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4) checkpoint inhibition [6]. Rather, tumor infiltration by competent lymphocytes, which appears to be associated with different immunobiologically relevant signatures, could be a complementary, powerful metric of predicted therapeutic sensitivity to both radio and immunotherapies.

Results Splenectomy prior to tumor injection or at early stage inhibited growth of LL/2-luc tumors but not that of H1299 tumors; however, it did not enhance the antitumor effect of radiation regardless of intervention timing. Flow cytometry analysis showed monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and activated CD8+ T cells increased after irradiation in the tumors of splenectomized mice, compared to those of sham-operated mice. Administration of anti-PD-1 (programmed death-1) antibodies improved the ability of splenectomy to attenuate the growth of irradiated tumors.

Gamma ray induced a 3.71- and 3.39-fold increase in the infiltration of FoxP3+ cells, CD56+ NK cells, respectively and 0.0034-fold change in PGRMC1 expression. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed predictive role of the parameters. In the irradiated patients' group, inverted correlations between clinical unfavorable outcome, FoxP3+ Tregs and CD56+ NK cells were observed.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our results suggest an immune-modulating role, specifically by increasing immune cell infiltration, of gamma radiation in the TME which may potentially be utilized as biomarkers in prognostic values.</p>","PeriodicalId":46572,"journal":{"name":"Radiation Oncology Journal","volume":"39 4","pages":"324-333"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/9c/34/roj-2021-00472.PMC8743460.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39875988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
