      Background

      Magnetic resonance (MR-)guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with daily replanning was performed for patients in whom treatment delivery was challenging due to tumor location, motion or pulmonary comorbidity. We describe patient characteristics and early clinical outcomes using this novel approach.

      Method

      50 consecutive patients (54 lung tumors) underwent MR-guided SABR at a single center between 2016-2018 for either primary lung cancer (n = 29 tumors) or lung metastases (n = 25). Patients had one or more factors predisposing to toxicity, including a central tumor location (n = 27 patients), previous thoracic radiotherapy (n = 17), and interstitial lung disease (n = 7). A daily 17-second breath-hold MR scan was acquired in treatment position, followed by on-table plan adaptation. Gated delivery was performed using repeated breath-holds under continuous MR-guidance. Local control, overall (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, with PFS defined as time to disease progression or death from any cause.

      Result

      Breath-hold SABR delivery was well tolerated, with all but one patient completing the planned schedule. With daily replanning, a biologically equivalent dose (BED10Gy) ≥100Gy to 95% of the planning target volume was delivered in 51 tumors (94%). Median follow-up was 15.8 months (95% CI, [11.4-22.5]). Local control, OS and PFS at 12 months were 93.4%, 86.7% and 58.4%, respectively (Fig. 1). In-field recurrences developed in 2 patients who were re-irradiated for a local recurrence after previous SABR, and one marginal recurrence was observed. Overall rates of any grade ≥2 and ≥3 toxicity were 24% and 4%, respectively. No grade ≥4 toxicity was seen. Commonest toxicities were grade ≥2 radiation pneumonitis (8%) and chest wall pain (8%; including one rib fracture).

      Conclusion

      Early follow-up of the largest patient cohort to date undergoing thoracic MR-guided SABR indicates low toxicity rates, and promising local tumor control.

      P1.17-26 - Delivery of Stereotactic MR-Guided Adaptive Radiation Therapy for Peripheral Lung Tumors (ID 1368)

      09:45 - 18:00  |  Author(s): Cornelis Haasbeek

      Background

      Stereotactic MR-guided adaptive radiation therapy (SMART) allows delivery of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) with high precision (van Sörnsen de Koste JR, 2018). For central lung tumors, SMART with on-table plan adaptation improves target coverage and avoids excessive normal organ doses (Finazzi T, 2019). The benefits of SMART for peripherally located lung tumors are unknown.

      Method

      Between 2016-2019, 23 patients (25 peripheral lung tumors) underwent SMART delivered in 3-8 fractions on an MR-Cobalt-60 system or MR-Linac. Before each fraction, a 17-second breath-hold MR scan was acquired, followed by on-table plan adaptation based on the anatomy-of-the-day, using a planning target volume (PTV) margin of 3 or 5 mm. Breath-hold gated delivery was performed under continuous MR-guidance using an in-room monitor (Fig. 1). For 14 patients, a motion-encompassing internal target volume (ITV) was created from a free-breathing 4DCT scan. Benefits of on-table adaptation were studied by comparing 112 «predicted» plans, which are the baseline plans recalculated on the anatomy-of-the-day, with on-table reoptimized plans.

      Result

      The SMART procedure took a median of 62 minutes on the MR-Cobalt-60 system, and 48 minutes on MR-Linac. Average SMART-PTVs were 15.4 cc (range, [3.1-55.6]). In 14 patients with a 4DCT, SMART-PTVs measured only 53.7% (range, [31.9-75.0]) of PTVs generated from the corresponding 4DCT scans (ITV+5mm). Clinicians chose the reoptimized plan for 91% of fractions. Per fraction, on-table plan adaptation improved prescription dose coverage (V100%) of the PTV from a median of 92.2% in predicted plans, to 95.0% in reoptimized ones, thereby increasing the proportion of fractions delivering a BED10Gy ≥100Gy to 95% of PTV from 90.2% to 100.0%.

      Conclusion

      Using SMART for peripheral lung tumors resulted in smaller target volumes, and on-table plan adaptation ensured delivery of ablative doses to the PTV. Despite longer SABR delivery times, our findings suggest that SMART can be beneficial for some peripheral lung tumors.
