Abstract 290P
Background
Renal cell carcinoma(RCC) constitutes a broad spectrum of aggressiveness with variable outcomes depending on existing risk factors. 20% patients present with de novo metastasis and almost 30% progress distantly after the treatment of primary. Management options of metastatic RCC include Active surveillance, Surgery (Cytoreductive nephrectomy/ metastasectomy), Local ablative therapy(SBRT) and systemic therapy. Recently SBRT has emerged as promising therapy for both primary and metastatic sites with favorable local control and toxicity rates. SBRT can be delivered upfront to delay systemic therapy or sequentially with systemic therapy. In our study, we analyzed 40 patients diagnosed with metastatic RCC, treated with SBRT with respect to disease control and survival outcomes.
Methods
40 patients diagnosed with biopsy proven metastatic RCC with ECOG Performance status = 2, treated from 2009 to 2024 were prospectively analyzed. FDG PET and MRI based SBRT with Cyberknife was delivered to metastatic (+/- primary) lesions using real time tracking method to a dose of 30 to 40 Gy in 3 to 5 fractions. Treatment sites included Brain, Kidney, Adrenal, Lung, Bone, Liver, and Lymphnodes. Systemic therapy was administered as and when indicated. All patients underwent clinico- radiological evaluation (PETC/MRI) during followup visits. Local control and survival outcomes were analyzed.
Results
40 patients (M:F - 29:11) with a median age of 45 years (Age range- 35 to 80 years) were included in the study. SBRT was delivered to metastatic sites in the Brain (37.5%), Kidney (40%), Adrenal (12.5%), Lung (22.5%), Bone (40%), Liver (17.5%), Lymph node (10%). Median Overall Survival was observed to be 24 months and median Progression Free Survival was 18 months.
Conclusions
SBRT is well tolerated in patients with metastatic RCC and has a significant impact in disease control translating to improved Overall Survival. In the era of high precision oncology, SBRT should be considered as an integral component for the treatment of Metastatic RCC.
