To evaluate clinical outcomes of simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) - intensity modulated radiotherapy (RT) in patients with non metastatic anal cancer compared to those of a set of patients treated with 3-dimensional conformal RT and sequential boost (SeqB).
A retrospective cohort of 190 anal cancer patients treated at 3 academic centers with concurrent chemo-RT employing either SIB or SeqB was analysed. The SIB-group consisted of 87 patients, treated with 2 cycles of Mitomycin (MMC) and 5-Fluorouracil (5FU) using SIB-IMRT delivering 42-45Gy/28-30 fractions to the elective pelvic lymph nodes and 50.4-54Gy/28-30fractions to the primary tumor and involved nodes, based on pre-treatment staging. The SeqB group comprised 103 patients, treated with MMC associated to either 5FU or Capecitabine concurrent to RT with 36 Gy/20 fractions to a single volume including gross tumor, clinical nodes and elective nodal volumes and a SeqB to primary tumor and involved nodes of 23.4 Gy/13 fractions. We compared colostomy-free survival (CFS), overall survival (OS) and the cumulative incidence of colostomy for each radiation modality. Cox proportional-hazards model addressed factors influencing OS and CFS.
Median follow up was 34 (range 9-102) and 31 months (range 2-101) in the SIB and SeqB groups. The 1- and 2-year cumulative incidences of colostomy were 8.2% (95%CI:3.6-15.2) and 15.0% (95%CI:8.1-23.9) in the SIB group and 13.9% (95%CI: 7.8-21.8) and 18.1% (95%CI:10.8-27.0) in the SeqB group. Two-year CFS and OS were 78.1% (95%CI:67.0-85.8) and 87.5% (95%CI:77.3-93.3) in the SIB group and 73.5% (95%CI:62.6-81.7) and 85.4% (95%CI:75.5-91.6) in the SeqB, respectively. A Cox proportional hazards regression model highlighted an adjusted hazard ratio (AdjHR) of 1.18 (95%CI: 0.67-2.09;p = 0.560), although AdjHR for the first 24 months was 0.95 (95%CI: 0.49-1.84;p = 0.877) for the SIB approach.
SIB-based RT provides similar clinical outcomes compared to SeqB-based in the treatment of patients affected with non metastatic anal cancer.
评估同时整合增强(SIB)-强度调制放疗(RT)与一系列采用三维适形 RT 和序贯增强(SeqB)治疗的非转移性肛门癌患者的临床结果。
对在 3 个学术中心接受顺式化疗 RT 治疗的 190 例肛门癌患者的回顾性队列进行分析,其中 SIB 组 87 例,采用 SIB-IMRT 治疗,共 2 个周期的丝裂霉素(MMC)和 5-氟尿嘧啶(5FU),对选择性盆腔淋巴结和原发肿瘤及受累淋巴结分别给予 42-45Gy/28-30 分次和 50.4-54Gy/28-30 分次。SeqB 组 103 例,采用 MMC 联合 5FU 或卡培他滨同期放疗,给予单一体积 36Gy/20 分次,包括大体肿瘤、临床淋巴结和选择性淋巴结体积,原发肿瘤和受累淋巴结的 SeqB 为 23.4Gy/13 分次。我们比较了两种放射治疗方式的结肠造口术无复发生存(CFS)、总生存(OS)和结肠造口术累积发生率。Cox 比例风险模型分析了影响 OS 和 CFS 的因素。
SIB 和 SeqB 组的中位随访时间分别为 34(9-102)和 31 个月(2-101)。SIB 组 1 年和 2 年的结肠造口术累积发生率分别为 8.2%(95%CI:3.6-15.2)和 15.0%(95%CI:8.1-23.9),SeqB 组分别为 13.9%(95%CI:7.8-21.8)和 18.1%(95%CI:10.8-27.0)。SIB 组的 2 年 CFS 和 OS 分别为 78.1%(95%CI:67.0-85.8)和 87.5%(95%CI:77.3-93.3),SeqB 组分别为 73.5%(95%CI:62.6-81.7)和 85.4%(95%CI:75.5-91.6)。Cox 比例风险回归模型突出显示,SIB 方法的调整后危险比(AdjHR)为 1.18(95%CI:0.67-2.09;p=0.560),尽管在第 24 个月之前的 AdjHR 为 0.95(95%CI:0.49-1.84;p=0.877)。
与基于 SeqB 的治疗相比,基于 SIB 的 RT 为非转移性肛门癌患者提供了相似的临床结果。
