      Background

      Evidence is rapidly accumulating for the use of radical treatment approaches for patients with oligometastatic Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several limitations remain, however, to further strengthen the use of radical therapy as opposed to standard maintenance therapy, including a lack of robust markers to predict patient response. In this study, we assessed the utility of reaching a complete response (CR) by PET-CT in patients with oligometastatic disease after radical treatment (NCT02805530).

      We included patients with stage IV NSCLC who presented with ≤5 synchronous, any-site metastases (oligometastatic disease) as assessed by PET-CT. Patients received 4 initial cycles of systemic treatment. Following, patients were evaluated by PET-CT and those with stable disease and partial response received radical treatment to the primary site and metastases (surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy plus radiotherapy, radiofrequency and SBRT alone or in any combination). Response to radical treatment was evaluated by PET-CT. Maintenance treatment was permitted.

      37 patients were included in the analysis. Mean age was 55.7. At diagnosis 43.2% of patients presented with CNS metastases. After 4 cycles of first-line therapy, 100% of patients received treatment to the primary site, while 83.8% also received therapy to metastases. Following radical treatment, 19 (51.4%) patients achieved a CR by PET-CT, while 18 (48.6%) had a partial response (NON-CR). Median PFS was 26.2 months (95%CI 12.2-40.1), and was positively affected by CR by PET-CT (NR vs. 14.3 [95%CI 11.9-16.7]; p<0.001). Median overall survival (OS) was NR. OS was also positively affected by CR by PET-CT (42-month survival: 82.5%±18 for CR vs. 34.4%±28 for NON-CR by PET-CT; p=0.01).

      Patients with oligometastatic NSCLC who undergo radical treatment and reach a CR by PET-CT show a significant improvement in survival outcomes. Our results suggest that CR by PET-CT could serve as a surrogate marker for prolonged survival in this patient sufigure rc petct.pngbgroup.
