Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) is well described in patients with brain metastases, presenting symptomatically in approximately 5% of patients. Conventionally, the presence of LMD is an indication for whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) and not suitable for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). The purpose of the study was to evaluate the local control and overall survival of patients who underwent SRS to focal LMD. We reviewed our prospective registry and identified 32 brain metastases patients with LMD, from a total of 465 patients who underwent SRS between 2013 and 2015. Focal LMD was targeted with SRS in 16 patients. The median imaging follow-up time was 7 months. The median volume of LMD was 372 mm3 and the median margin dose was 16 Gy. Five patients underwent prior WBRT. Histology included non-small cell lung (8), breast (5), melanoma (1), gastrointestinal (1) and ovarian cancer (1). Follow-up MR imaging was available for 14 patients. LMD was stable in 5 and partially regressed in 8 patients at follow-up. One patient had progression of LMD with hemorrhage 5 months after SRS. Seven patients developed distant LMD at a median time of 7 months. The median actuarial overall survival from SRS for LMD was 10.0 months. The 6-month and 1-year actuarial overall survival was 60% and 26% respectively. Six patients underwent WBRT after SRS for focal LMD at a median time of 6 months. Overall, focal LMD may be may be treated successfully with radiosurgery, potentially delaying WBRT in some patients. 相似文献

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone has become one of the treatment options for patients with 1–4 metastases as the detrimental effects of whole brain radiation therapy on neurocognition and quality of life are becoming well known. Multiple randomized control trials also failed to show overall survival benefit of adding whole brain radiation therapy to SRS. However, the role of SRS in multiple brain metastases, especially those with ≥4 tumors, remains controversial. The literature is emerging, and the limited evidence suggests that the local control benefit is independent of the number of metastases, and that patients with more than four brain metastases have similar overall survival compared to those with 2–4 tumors. This review aims at summarizing the current evidence of SRS for multiple brain metastases, divided into limited (2–3) and multiple (≥4) lesions. It also reviews the technical aspects and cost–effectiveness of SRS. 相似文献

Background: The objective of this systematic review was to summarise the current evidence concerning radiosurgical treatment (SRS) of newly diagnosed brain metastasis and to compare SRS as a single or additional treatment to treatment alternatives with regard to medical effectiveness and safety.Methods: A structured search of electronic databases was performed to identify relevant publications from 2002 through 2007. Studies targeting patients with brain metastases were included. Standardised quality assessment and data extraction were performed.Results: Of 1496 publications, 16 studies were included. The mean survival in most studies was less than 12 months. There was evidence that SRS plus WBRT was associated with improved local tumour control and neurological functioning compared to either treatment alone. Only in patients with single metastasis, this resulted in improved survival. There was inconclusive evidence when comparing SRS to WBRT, Neurosurgery (NS) or Hypofractionated Radiotherapy (HCSRT). The Quality of life (Qol) was not investigated.Conclusion: SRS plus WBRT was associated with improved local tumour control and neurological functioning compared to either treatment alone. Only in certain patients, this resulted in improved survival. Methodologically rigorous studies are therefore warranted to investigate further treatment options, and in view of the poor prognosis, to investigate Qol and neurological functioning. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible role of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in the management of patients with brain metastases from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Thirty-two consecutive patients with 80 brain metastases from HCC were treated with SRS. Twenty-eight (87.5 %) patients were male, and the mean age of the patients was 54 ± 12 years (range 22–73). Twenty-seven (84.4 %) patients were classified as RTOG RPA Class 2. The mean tumor volume was 6.14 ± 11.3 cm3 (range 0.01–67.3). The mean marginal dose prescribed was 20.1 ± 3.6 Gy (range 10.0–25.0). The median overall survival time after SRS was 11.3 ± 5.8 weeks (95 % CI 0–22.7). A greater total volume of brain metastases (>14 cm3) was the only independent prognostic factor (HR = 2.419; 95 % CI 1.040–5.624; p = 0.040). The actuarial control rate of brain metastases was 51.3 % at 4 months after SRS. The prescribed marginal dose (>18 Gy) was significantly related with the actuarial tumor control (HR = 0.254; 95 % CI 0.089–0.725; p = 0.010). The prognosis of patients with brain metastases from HCC is dismal even with the modern technology of radiosurgery. The marginal dose prescribed should be reevaluated to improve upon the current poor local control rates. 相似文献

Stereotactic radiosurgery plus whole brain radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone for patients with multiple brain metastases. 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20

PURPOSE: Multiple brain metastases are a common health problem, frequently diagnosed in patients with cancer. The prognosis, even after treatment with whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT), is poor with average expected survivals less than 6 months. Retrospective series of stereotactic radiosurgery have shown local control and survival benefits in case series of patients with solitary brain metastases. We hypothesized that radiosurgery plus WBRT would provide improved local brain tumor control over WBRT alone in patients with two to four brain metastases. METHODS: Patients with two to four brain metastases (all < or =25 mm diameter and known primary tumor type) were randomized to initial brain tumor management with WBRT alone (30 Gy in 12 fractions) or WBRT plus radiosurgery. Extent of extracranial cancer, tumor diameters on MRI scan, and functional status were recorded before and after initial care. RESULTS: The study was stopped at an interim evaluation at 60% accrual. Twenty-seven patients were randomized (14 to WBRT alone and 13 to WBRT plus radiosurgery). The groups were well matched to age, sex, tumor type, number of tumors, and extent of extracranial disease. The rate of local failure at 1 year was 100% after WBRT alone but only 8% in patients who had boost radiosurgery. The median time to local failure was 6 months after WBRT alone (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.5-8.5) in comparison to 36 months (95% CI, 15.6-57) after WBRT plus radiosurgery (p = 0.0005). The median time to any brain failure was improved in the radiosurgery group (p = 0.002). Tumor control did not depend on histology (p = 0.85), number of initial brain metastases (p = 0.25), or extent of extracranial disease (p = 0.26). Patients who received WBRT alone lived a median of 7.5 months, while those who received WBRT plus radiosurgery lived 11 months (p = 0.22). Survival did not depend on histology or number of tumors, but was related to extent of extracranial disease (p = 0.02). There was no neurologic or systemic morbidity related to stereotactic radiosurgery. CONCLUSIONS: Combined WBRT and radiosurgery for patients with two to four brain metastases significantly improves control of brain disease. WBRT alone does not provide lasting and effective care for most patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The current study analyzed the feasibility and outcome of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for treatment of brain metastases from breast carcinoma. METHODS: During an 8-year period, 151 patients with a combined total of 620 brain metastases from breast carcinoma underwent 197 outpatient SRS procedures. Sixty-three percent of all patients had multiple brain metastases. The median tumor volume was 2.2 cm(3) (range, 0.1-20.9 cm(3)). The mean prescribed tumor dose was 19 +/- 4 grays. Local/distant tumor recurrences were treated with additional radiosurgical therapy for patients with stable systemic disease. All patients were categorized according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group classification. Survival time and freedom from local tumor recurrence were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Prognostic factors were identified using the Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS: The overall median survival duration was 10 months after SRS. Ninety-four percent of patients did not experience local brain tumor recurrence after radiosurgery. In addition, 70.2% of patients did not have disease recurrence in the brain. Most patients died of systemically progressing malignancy. A Karnofsky performance score > 70 and recursive partitioning analysis Class I were related to prolonged survival in the univariate and multivariate analyses. Age, whole-brain radiotherapy, surgery, number of metastases, chemotherapy, and latency period from diagnosis of the primary tumor to the development of brain metastases did not reach prognostic relevance in the multivariate model. Patients with RPA I, II, and III survived 34.9, 9.1, and 7.9 months, respectively. There was no treatment related permanent morbidity and mortality. The transient morbidity rate was 17%. Sixteen patients exhibited symptomatic transient complications related to treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the current study indicate that SRS is a feasible treatment concept for selected patients with multiple brain metastases from breast carcinoma. 相似文献

Introduction
There is evidence that the combination of ipilimumab and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain metastases improves outcomes. We investigated clinical outcomes, radiation toxicity, and impact of ipilimumab timing in patients treated with SRS for melanoma brain metastases.Methods
We retrospectively identified 91 patients treated with SRS at our institution for melanoma brain metastases from 2006 to 2015. Concurrent ipilimumab administration was defined as within ±?4 weeks of SRS procedure. Acute and late toxicities were graded with CTCAE v4.03. Overall survival (OS), local failure, distant brain failure, and failure-free survival were analyzed with the Kaplan–Meier method. OS was analyzed with Cox regression.Results
Twenty-three patients received ipilimumab concurrent with SRS, 28 patients non-concurrently, and 40 patients did not receive ipilimumab. The median age was 62 years and 91% had KPS?≥?80. The median follow-up time was 7.4 months. Patients who received ipilimumab had a median OS of 15.1 months compared to 7.8 months in patients who did not (p?=?0.02). In multivariate analysis, ipilimumab (p?=?0.02) and diagnosis-specific graded prognostic assessment (p?=?0.02) were associated with OS. There were no differences in intracranial control by ipilimumab administration or timing. The incidence of radiation necrosis was 5%, with most events occurring in patients who received ipilimumab.Conclusions
Patients who received ipilimumab had improved OS even after adjusting for prognostic factors. Ipilimumab did not appear to increase risk for acute toxicity. The majority of radiation necrosis events, however, occurred in patients who received ipilimumab. Our results support the continued use of SRS and ipilimumab as clinically appropriate.14.

This study was conducted to determine prognostic factors for tumor response and patient survival after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain metastasis. Eighty-four patients with brain metastasis underwent SRS at a single institution. After fixation of the head with a stereotactic frame, computed tomography treatment planning was performed. The metastatic lesion was treated with multiple arcs to a median dose of 19 Gy. Forty-seven patients (56%) had a solitary brain lesion. Fifty-nine patients (70%) had evidence of extracranial disease at the time of SRS. The median survival duration from SRS was 7 months. Sixty-three percent of the patients had an objective radiographic response to SRS, which in turn was associated with superior central nervous system control. Age, collimator size, number of arcs, tumor location, and histology did not influence objective response rates. Patients who had a solitary lesion or who received treatment within 2 weeks after diagnosis were more likely to have an objective response than were those who did not (P < 0.05). Progressive brain disease accounted for 37% of the deaths. Nineteen patients (23%) had an in-field relapse. Four severe complications were attributed to SRS. This study confirms the role of SRS as an acceptable treatment option for patients with solitary or limited brain metastases. Int. J. Cancer (Radiat. Oncol. Invest.) 90, 157-162 (2000). 相似文献

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to analyze results of adjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) targeted at resection cavities of brain metastases without whole-brain irradiation (WBI). METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients who underwent SRS to the tumor bed, deferring WBI after resection of a brain metastasis, were retrospectively identified. RESULTS: Seventy-two patients with 76 cavities treated from 1998 to 2006 met inclusion criteria. The SRS was delivered to a median marginal dose of 18.6 Gy (range, 15-30 Gy) targeting an average tumor volume of 9.8 cm(3) (range, 0.1-66.8 cm(3)). With a median follow-up of 8.1 months (range, 0.1-80.5 months), 65 patients had follow-up imaging assessable for control analyses. Actuarial local control rates at 6 and 12 months were 88% and 79%, respectively. On univariate analysis, increasing values of conformality indices were the only treatment variables that correlated significantly with improved local control; local control was 100% for the least conformal quartile compared with 63% for the remaining quartiles. Target volume, dose, and number of sessions were not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: In this retrospective series, SRS administered to the resection cavity of brain metastases resulted in a 79% local control rate at 12 months. This value compares favorably with historic results with observation alone (54%) and postoperative WBI (80-90%). Given the improved local control seen with less conformal plans, we recommend inclusion of a 2-mm margin around the resection cavity when using this technique. 相似文献

Brain tumors represent the most common solid tumor in children. Fractionated radiation therapy has been an important treatment modality in the multi-disciplinary management of these tumors. Stereotactic radiosurgery is the precise delivery of a single fraction of radiation and has been an important treatment option for adult brain tumor patients. Although the use of stereotactic radiosurgery in pediatric brain tumors is much less frequent, it represents an important alternative for patients with recurrent, surgically inaccessible or radioresponsive tumors. This article will review the results and logistical issues of this modality in the management of pediatric brain tumors. 相似文献

Brain metastases are unfortunately a common occurrence in patients with cancer. Whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) is still considered the standard of care in the treatment of brain metastases. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) offers the additional ability to treat tumors with relative sparing of normal brain tissue in a single fraction. While the addition of SRS to WBRT has been shown to improve survival and local tumor control in selected patients, the idea of deferring WBRT in order to avoid its effects on normal tissues and using SRS alone continues to generate significant discussion and interest. Three recent randomized trials from Japan, Europe and the MD Anderson Cancer Center (TX, USA) have attempted to address this issue. In this article, we update a previous review by discussing these trials to compare the outcomes for SRS alone versus SRS plus WBRT for limited metastases. We also discuss recent nonrandomized evidence for the use of SRS alone for oligometastatic disease. 相似文献
