Patterns of loco-regional progression and patient outcomes after definitive-dose radiation therapy for anaplastic thyroid cancer
Background
The aim of this study is to characterize the patterns of loco-regional progression (LRP) and outcomes after definitive-dose intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) with macroscopic neck disease at the time of IMRT.
Methods
Disease/treatment characteristics and outcomes for patients with unresected or incompletely resected ATC who received IMRT (≥45 Gy) were retrospectively reviewed. For those with LRP after IMRT, progressive/recurrent gross tumor volumes (rGTV) were contoured on diagnostic CTs and co-registered with initial planning CTs using deformable image registration. rGTVs were classified based on established spatial/dosimetric criteria.
Results
Forty patients treated between 2010–2020 formed the cohort. Median IMRT dose was 66 Gy (45–70 Gy); altered fractionation (AF) was used in 24 (60 %). All received concurrent chemotherapy. In addition to areas of gross disease, target volumes (TVs) commonly included: central compartment/upper mediastinum (levels VI/VII), neck levels II-V in an involved, and levels III-IV in an uninvolved lateral neck. Median overall survival was 7.1 m. Median progression free survival was 7.4 m for patients with locoregional disease and 1.8 m for patients with distant metastasis at the time of IMRT. Twenty-one patients (53 %) developed LRP at median of 10.9 m; freedom from LRP at 3 m and 12 m was 71 % (95 %CI 58–87 %) and 47 % (95 %CI 32–68 %). Forty-one individual rGTVs were identified and most occurred within the high dose (HD) TVs: Type A/central HD (n = 29, 71 %) and B/peripheral HD (n = 3, 7 %).
Conclusions
Despite an intensive treatment schedule, including AF and concurrent chemotherapy, classic radio-resistant and rapid Type A failures predominated; isolated extraneous dose failures were rare. While these findings support the IMRT and TV delineation strategies described herein, they highlight the importance of identifying novel strategies to further improve LRC for patients with unresectable disease without targetable mutations for contemporary neo-adjuvant strategies.
期刊介绍:
Radiotherapy and Oncology publishes papers describing original research as well as review articles. It covers areas of interest relating to radiation oncology. This includes: clinical radiotherapy, combined modality treatment, translational studies, epidemiological outcomes, imaging, dosimetry, and radiation therapy planning, experimental work in radiobiology, chemobiology, hyperthermia and tumour biology, as well as data science in radiation oncology and physics aspects relevant to oncology.Papers on more general aspects of interest to the radiation oncologist including chemotherapy, surgery and immunology are also published.
